a Mid-Century Modern Masterpiece In Stillwater, Minnesota - 1957
On the tranquil lakefront of Stillwater, Minnesota, is a Mid-Century Modern home physically built stone-by-stone by Don and Virginia Lovness in about 1957.
Renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright originally designed the project, made up of a custom home and guesthouse cottage.
The properties sit on 20 acres of land, according to Historic Homes in Minnesota’s website.
The Lovness family built their home from the ground up and maintained all the original stonework throughout the years.
In 2001, Don Lovness passed away, so Virginia was left as the caretaker of the home. In 2013, Ted and Deborah Muntz purchased the home from Virginia Lovness and set out to restore the beautiful custom home to its former glory.
The Muntz Residence is the 2017 winner of the Excellence in Concrete & Masonry Design and Construction Award.
