San Francisco has its share of extremely expensive and architecturally significant homes, but today, we’re bringing your attention to sunny Los Angeles (all this grey weather is getting to us) to let you know that the famous Frank Lloyd Wright Ennis House is being sold for $15,000,000. You’ve seen this home in movies and magazines, but it’s sadly deteriorating.  The Ennis house Foundation, currently in charge of the estate has decided “to place the Ennis House on the market for sale to a private owner. This decision stems primarily from the fact that the house needs more stewardship at this point than a small nonprofit can sustain.”  Pass the word along to anybody you may know that wants to own this crumbling masterpiece.  Earthquakes and rain seem to be the culprit bringing the concrete blocks down, but we’re certain somebody will come along to create a Hollywood ending to save this damsel in distress.
