Mountain retreat with midcentury touches asks $1.5M

Located in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, near Great Smoky Mountains National Park The iconic American architect Frank Lloyd Wright may have died in 1959, but thanks to a plethora of apprentices and students, his legacy of ?organic? architecture lives on. Take this five-bedroom, six-bath home in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. Although constructed in the late 1970s and finished in 1981, the home features a strong midcentury influence.

It was designed by Hubert Bebb, an Illinois architect who studied under Wright and worked for most of his life in Tennessee. As a disciple of organic architecture, Bebb often used native sandstone and designed structures with steep overhanging rooflines to emulate the shape of mountains. As a home designed in the last few years of Bebb?s career, this modern-rustic retreat sits on 6.62 acres just north of Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The 5,500-square-foot house boasts original features like wormy chestnut walls, exposed beam ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a glass atrium ceiling in the kitchen. New updates in the kitchen add a modern touch, and the outdoor space includes a rooftop deck, outdoor shower, and over 1,000 square feet of decking and flagstone patio.
