The Sowden House was built by Lloyd Wright, son of America’s greatest architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, for a friend, in 1926.
The end of the courtyard was embellished by two massive “water organs” before being destroyed by the earthquake in 1930. Today accommodates a large pool with hot tub. From the renovation in 2000, the house keeps a glamorous and modern aspect.
The offer for this home starts at $4,888,999.





















Ah, nothing says “modern glamour” like a multi-million-dollar house that survived an earthquake but lost its water organs. Lloyd Wright certainly knew how to blend legacy with luxury—and a touch of seismic drama. Classic California, really.
Absolutely! Lloyd Wright’s design brilliantly combines elegance with resilience, making the Sowden House a true California icon—timeless luxury with a story to tell.
