This is more than a home - it's an opportunity to own a piece of Arizona architectural history. Blaine Drake architecture is considered Mid-Century Modern, specifically within the niche of Mid-Century Desert Modernism in Arizona. A former apprentice of Frank Lloyd Wright, Drake established his practice in 1945 and was a key figure in designing climate-responsive homes characterized by concrete block, wood beams, and large expanses of glass. He focused on integrating residential architecture with the natural Arizona landscape. This home sits perfectly in the lush desert setting of Fountain Hills.
