How would you like to live in an original Frank Lloyd Wright designed Usonian house
Well then I suggest you check out the Palmer House in Ann Arbor, Michigan. I feel for the seller, the housing market is in a shambles which is why this beauty comes with a $250,000 discount. Even with the price reduction the sucker still carries the asking price of $1,250,000. I assume that is a shit-ton more than they bought it for, maybe two shit-tons.
Follow the link, and if you can stand the annoying new-agey music embedded in the site you can contact Bob Eckstien, the agent charged with getting rid of this baby masterpiece.
Check it out, and if you have an extra million or so around help Bob earn his commission!
