Elk Head Lodge, built in 1907 by a Prairie School architect and Frank Lloyd Wright protégé, sits on 40 private acres with a stocked lake, mature landscaping, and a 2-car garage with greenhouse. This 3,738 sq ft one-level home features original plaster walls, oak floors, 10-ft ceilings, and a striking 12-ft-wide gallery connecting all public and private rooms. The layout includes 4 bedrooms, 3 baths, a large living room with fireplace, dining and game rooms with beamed ceilings, eat-in kitchen, and a spacious butler’s pantry—ideal for entertaining. Covered decks with Cypress posts overlook the lake and lead to a hot tub. Grounds include fenced paddocks, ornamental trees, and a private lake with dock and fountain stocked with bass, bluegill, and catfish. Expansion potential in the attic with 10-ft ceilings. Includes an unfinished caretaker cottage. The Guest house, barn, historic schoolhouse, and 16.46 additional acres are not included in the offering BUT are available separately. The purchase of the Guest house and additional acreage is contingent up on the sale of the main house. No restrictions. A rare blend of history, architecture, and nature.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
