Kentuck Knob, National Historic Landmark residence in Chalkhill, United States.

The Kentuck Knob residence features a crescent-shaped design with native sandstone walls, red cypress materials, and glass surfaces that integrate with the surrounding landscape.

Frank Lloyd Wright designed this private residence in 1954 for Isaac Newton and Bernardine Hagan, completing the construction of this Usonian architectural example in 1956.

The residence demonstrates the principles of organic architecture through its hexagonal stone core, L-shaped layout, and strategic placement that maximizes natural light throughout the day.

Guided tours operate from March through November between 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM daily, except Wednesdays when tours begin at noon, with modified hours in December.

Located on Chestnut Ridge in Pennsylvania's Allegheny Mountains, the house spans 2,300 square feet and incorporates a module system based on equilateral triangles.
