Famed KC ‘spaceship’ house designed by Bruce Goff in 1967 on sale for the first time

It is known as the Searing House, a modern, minimalist home designed by acclaimed Kansas-born architect Bruce Goff and for the first time since its construction in 1967, it is for sale in Prairie Village, Kansas.

“We are marketing the home as a piece of art more than anything else,” said Katherine Lee, Global Real Estate Advisor with Element Sotheby’s International Realty.

The futuristic-looking home with one bedroom and two bathrooms has a three-sided fireplace centered in an open, communal living area. Floor-to-ceiling windows allow light to filter into the living areas that are designed in an triangular floor plan. Original wood accordion-style folding partitions, which are still easily opened and closed, provide privacy in a home with few doors and no right angles. Bright yellow counter tops are a focal point in the kitchen.
