Discover an architectural masterpiece—the epitome of Mid-Century Modern. A rare gem, this 1957 multilevel home was designed by Fort Worth architect Larry Morton Gernsbacher, AIA, a Taliesin West alum under the legendary Frank Lloyd Wright in the angular style favored by Wright. Commissioned by Fay and Leon Brachman — co-founders of the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra and the Cliburn International Piano Competition — the spacious house was ideal for hosting Cliburn contestants. As you walk up to the property, the courtyard is magnificent. Step inside, and you’re met with striking geometric style, custom-built elements, and layered levels that bring serious dimension and depth. The recent kitchen revamp is nothing short of luxurious. Luxe details include poured terrazzo with brass insets — a smooth blend of old and new — and custom teak cabinets built by local craftsman Mario Camilleri. The freezer and refrigerator, now faced in teak, create a seamless look.The owners installed walls of glass on the northwest side, framing an endless canopy of trees and seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living. This isn’t just a home; it’s a canvas for someone who wants to put their own twist on mid-century modern. Private showings are now open for those ready to experience this one-of-a-kind residence.
