George Sturges House

The George Sturges House is a two-story residential building in Brentwood designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, featuring open floor plans throughout. A split wrought-iron staircase connects the upper and lower levels, creating a flowing spatial arrangement.

Built in 1939, the house marks Wright's shift toward simpler and more affordable residential designs in his career. The property passed through several owners over the decades, reflecting its enduring appeal.

The home reflects Wright's philosophy of open living spaces where rooms flow into one another and natural light fills every corner. Materials like limestone and wood create a warm connection to the surrounding landscape.

The location provides quick access to nearby neighborhoods, making it easy to explore the area. Visitors should plan ahead, as the house is private and not always available for tours.

The house is one of a handful examples of its kind in California, showcasing Wright's experimental approach to residential architecture. The use of affordable local materials made it a model for economical design.
