"'Form follows function' is mere dogma until you realize the higher truth that form and function are one." – Frank Lloyd Wright. And when Wright’s student, R.E. Hanson, designed the home to be built on a gently sloping, idyllic setting on the Mississippi River in 1949, he embraced this philosophy. The efficiency of space, use of natural materials and harmony of the home with the southern facing site are apparent from the moment you enter. Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated, this exceptional 1.6+ acres property offers you timeless design along with the fun and relaxation of waterfront living (easy dock installation and sandy, hard shoreline). A stunning addition to the home is the impressive three car garage, in floor heating, floor drains, power vents, and attached exercise room. With easy access to local shopping and parks, as well as many commuting options, this is the lifestyle you’ve been waiting for.
