Mrs. A. W. Gridley House
Mrs. A. W. Gridley House, Prairie School residence in Batavia, United States
The Mrs. A. W. Gridley House spans 5,100 square feet on a 2.3-acre wooded lot with a distinctive low-pitch hip roof and projecting eaves.
Frank Lloyd Wright designed this Prairie School house in 1906, which was later sold to Frank Snow, president of Batavia's Challenge Feed Mill in 1912.
The residence incorporates three Roman brick fireplaces, white oak hardwood floors, and built-in elements that reflect early 20th-century American residential architecture.
Located at 605 North Batavia Road, the private property maintains its original design elements and earned National Register of Historic Places status in 1993.
The house features a cruciform layout with a twenty-foot opening in the façade that connects to a terrace overlooking the Fox River.
