About This Home

As of January 2024

Introducing Tirranna - a stunning estate embodying Frank Lloyd Wright's genius. Situated on 14 acres of protected land, this architectural marvel blends geometric complexity with nature's flowing curves. As you enter through the Cherokee red iron gate, you'll be spellbound by the festival of light and sound. Tirranna is one of Wright's largest residential properties. It is also one of his last designs. This 7 bedroom, 8.5 baths 7,000 sq ft home boasts Philippine Mahogany, concrete block walls, soaring ceilings, and cozy bedrooms. The landscape was thoughtfully designed by Frank Okamura allowing you to enjoy total privacy. Tirranna is not just a house, it is a lifestyle. It's a chance to own a piece of architectural history and experience the Zen that only Frank Lloyd Wright could create. It is a testament to Wright's genius and has inspired architects worldwide. We are proud to present this extraordinary property to you.
