From the Agent: "Designed by the renowned architect Bruce Goff, the Searing House blends minimalism, whimsical features, and the feeling of being in nature. With all sides of the home surrounded by windows or sliding doors, and the central triangular skylights in the middle, the home also offers features such as wood dividing doors that meld into one another to enlarge or shrink the space, and a central fireplace. On the market for the first time since its creation, this piece of art has been meticulously maintained by the same family since its construction."
After building his first home at age 14, architect Bruce Goff went on to become an apprentice of Frank Lloyd Wright. In 1967, his work brought him back to his home state of Kansas, where he designed the Searing House.
