Westcott House

Completed in 1908, The Westcott House is Frank Lloyd Wright's only Prairie Style home in Ohio. Located at 1340 East High Street, Springfield, The Westcott House has recently undergone an inch-by-inch $5.3 million restoration. Each of its features-from art glass to original hardware and hand-decorated walls to massive urns-has been returned to its 1908 appearance. Furniture has been rebuilt according to Wright's specifications and gardens re-landscaped in keeping with the time.

The house, fully restored and hailed by many as a forgotten architectural treasure, opened to the public on October 15, 2005 is Frank Lloyd Wright's only Prairie Style home in Ohio.

About Us - The Westcott House Foundation

The Westcott House Foundation was established in September 2000 to manage the restoration of Frank Lloyd Wright's only Prairie Style home in Ohio and to develop The Westcott House as a museum and educational center. The house, fully restored and hailed by many as a forgotten architectural treasure, opened to the public on October 15, 2005. The Westcott House is one of about 260 Wright houses remaining in the world with eleven located in Ohio. One of the Foundation's primary goals is to establish The Westcott House as a "must-see" destination for the benefit of community and state, architectural enthusiasts, and the general public.
