Completed for a Chicago couple in 1951, based on a design by an apprentice of\u00a0Frank Lloyd Wright<\/strong>, this spectacular Seattle home<\/a> is pending sale after only five days on the market.<\/p>\n

The beautiful build features a dramatic, glass-walled, two-story living room that frames views of Lake Washington and Mt. Rainier.<\/p>\n

Listing agent Tanya Thackeray Wilson<\/strong>, of Windermere Seattle-Wedgewood<\/a>, notes that the seller \u201cwanted somebody who was going to appreciate it and live in it,\u201d instead of rebuilding on the lot. The home listed for $1.8 million in mid-March.<\/p>\n

Known as the Ingle-Cleland House, the place was designed by architect William Beye Fyfe<\/strong>, one of Wright\u2019s first apprentices at his Taliesin school.<\/p>\n

Designed with nature in mind<\/h2>\n

This glass and wood design is Fyfe\u2019s only Washington creation. His other projects<\/a> include designing master plans for Calvin College in Michigan, Rockford College in Illinois, and libraries in Chicago. Fyfe died in 2001 at the age of 90.<\/p>\n

Like Wright, Fyfe designed his homes in harmony with the landscape. This one, which spans 2,527 square feet and features three bedrooms and 2.5 baths, takes full advantage of its natural setting.<\/p>\n

Hallmarks of \u00a0Wright\u2019s Usonian-style homes can be seen in this structure, with its limited exposure on the public side and its clerestory windows.<\/p>\n

\u2018We knew it was special\u2019<\/h2>\n

The current owner purchased the property in the 1960s, which makes the next buyer only the third owner.<\/p>\n

The price didn\u2019t seem to dampen enthusiasm for the listing.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was priced a little bit higher, but we knew that it was special,\u201d says Thackeray Wilson.<\/p>\n

The dwelling is also larger than other homes in the local market.\u00a0A 1977 expansion included a new carport and the conversion of the original carport into a living space. One of Washington\u2019s first licensed female architects,\u00a0L. Jane Hastings<\/strong>, led the project.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019ve done an amazing job of keeping it true to what it was intended to be,\u201d says Thackeray Wilson, of the seller and architect.<\/p>\n

The locale, in Seattle\u2019s Aviation Heights, is desirable for its views, schools, restaurants, parks, and the Burke-Gilman Trail.<\/p>\n
