This home was designed and its building overseen by Frank Lloyd Wright in 1906, and is known as the K.C. DeRhodes House. It is the first home Wright built in Indiana, is one of only two homes in South Bend designed by him, and one of eight in Indiana, of which seven remain. Frank Lloyd Wright created the Prairie Style Movement, and the DeRhodes House is a shining example; it is the only Wright Prairie home in the state. This nearly 3,000-square-foot home has been privately owned for 43 years, and beautifully restored and preserved.  The symmetry and synergy are evident throughout the exterior and interior of the home, including matching front and back terraces.  The stucco has been professionally and accurately restored within the past year.  The home's 65 exterior windows are beautiful, intricate art glass, with matching interior bookcases and light fixtures.  The recessed entryway leads to a large reception room and into the main floor, which has a living room, dining room, half bath, and wonderful new kitchen with new stainless steel appliances and honed quartz countertops.  There are hardwood floors throughout both levels of the home. The living room includes a brick fireplace and a Frank Lloyd Wright designed sofa that will stay with the home.  Upstairs are 5 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms.  The main bedroom also has a fireplace with original brick & mantel, and 7 large art glass windows that wrap the front and both sides of the home. Downstairs there is a full basement which provides plenty of storage, and there is a 2-stall detached garage.  The current owner and her late husband were awarded the 2021 Wright Spirit Award, for their rescue and restoration of the DeRhodes House.  The Wright Spirit Award recognizes efforts of extraordinary individuals that have preserved the legacy of Frank Lloyd Wright through their tireless dedication and persistent efforts.
