Lavender House, Mission Revival residence in Boca Raton, Florida
The Lavender House features stucco exterior walls, red-tiled roofs, and architectural elements characteristic of the Mission Revival style at 875 Alamanda Street.
Hermann V. von Holst, a Chicago Prairie School architect, designed this house which gained recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in February 1995.
Lucy von Holst prepared the house and other properties in the Floresta neighborhood for winter rentals, catering to seasonal visitors from northern states.
The residence stands as one of two buildings in Boca Raton listed on the National Register, making it accessible for architectural study and historical research.
Initial architectural plans for the house were incorrectly attributed to Addison Mizner, who served only as the general contractor for the project.
