Good House of the Week: Douglas County, Nebraska (Patreon)

Folks, it's extremely rare to see a well done imitation of the Prairie style, especially done by a builder, but even I have to admit this 1994 house is stunning. The interiors are immaculately dressed with Frank Lloyd Wright furnishings, and as a bonus, the house is actually located in the Prairie! 

The materials of this house are extremely high-quality, and it gets the prairie look pretty much right. The only qualm I might have is the small narrow windows on the second floor, but even criticizing them verges on nitpickiness. I love the richness and accuracy of the brick (usually prairie imitations mess up the materials, using the wrong size bricks and fake stucco) and the detail of the landscaping, including the planters at the end of the path. The Prairie style featured strong horizontal motion, wide, overhanging eaves and low pitched rooflines to seemingly blend in with the strata of the prairie landscape, and this house very successfully fulfills those aspects of the style. 

I can't stop ogling the interiors, especially the dining room and the den. The builder and owners really should be praised for their meticulous attention to detail.
