Elizabeth Murphy House, Frank Lloyd Wright house in Shorewood, United States

The Elizabeth Murphy House features a single story with two bedrooms, a brick fireplace, and original birch trim throughout its open living spaces.

Construction of the American System-Built Home Model A203 began in 1917 when Elizabeth Murphy purchased the lot as an investment property.

The residence stands as an example of Frank Lloyd Wright's architectural philosophy, integrating natural elements with functional residential design principles.

The house maintains its original structure while incorporating modern updates, including double-pane windows and an added garage space for current living needs.

Research in 2015 by Curator Michael P. Lilek confirmed the structure as a Frank Lloyd Wright design after years of diminished architectural recognition.
