This 1940s Central Florida villa designed by a Frank Lloyd Wright protégé is now for sale

A historic Central Florida home designed by a Frank Lloyd Wright protégé is now for sale just north of Orlando.

The home, located at 39949 Skyline Drive in Umatilla, was originally built in 1948 and was designed by Earl W. Ohlinger, an apprentice of the famed Frank Lloyd Wright.

Ohlinger designed the home for its first owners, Dr. Franklin Hatfield and his wife, Adelaide Dolan Hatfield, according to the listing.

“Though the house was extensively remodeled in the 1990s by the son of Dr. and Mrs. Hatfield, many of the architectural features used by both Frank Lloyd Wright and Earl W. Olinger [sic] remain,” the listing reads.

Spanning 4,203 square feet, the home features four bedrooms and four bathrooms, all sitting on approximately eight acres of lakefront property.

The main house offers a library or office space, a tastefully retro kitchen, huge skylit rooms and a Florida room which leads to the massive pool out back. The home also has a basement (and/or safe room, per the listing). There’s a separate studio fit for creative work or to use as a guest room, too.

The estate is currently listed for $1,300,000. It’s being handled by Lynn Gagnon with Exit Realty Tri-County.
