As the mantra of real estate states, it is "Location, Location, Location!!!" when it comes to homes. Home is where the heart is, and to live in a storied, unique house, has a cachet all of its own. Wright definitely is the man of the hour (okay, day, week, month and year lol). His Fallingwater House is probably one of his most famous, but anything designed by him is one of a kind, no matter where it is. Great video, research and commentary. You are the Man, Kyle!!!! 😁💖👏

the trouble with a UNIQUE STYLE HOME,, is you have to be friggin rich to afford to upkeep them. Heat & cooling, plumbing need a team of engineers and very specific maintenance... If it's bought as an Airbnb then it's off to bankruptcy court and could be sitting empty for a very, very, very long time. That means you better bring lots to money to repair it

The Wright house does look slightly like a commercial building from the outside, but the interior feels home-like and comfortable. That is typical of Wright. Most of his houses are downright cozy inside! Almost all others here lack an inviting atmosphere within. Particularly repellent IMO was the Spain Cliff House's virtually nonfunctional living room, with hardly any expanse of uninterrupted floor space. Did y'all notice the back of the TV screen set up in the upper left? BAD DESIGN!

the historical architectural homes are absolute gems where everything from the bathrooms to the window placement is considered and appointed with the finest material craftmanship. the new homes are hideous modern abominations that are don't use space effectively and way overbuilt with no yard space, the people that live in them don't know art from design and pay designers the cost of most peoples homes to make the spaces livable by purchasing plants and commissioning art the home owner will never even see.
