フランクロイドライト弟子による歴史的なプレーリースタイルの家

Your hosts are Anneliesa Barta and Architect Jim Smith, one of Denver’s top architects. We have hosted over 300 satisfied guests to date between our various properties in Colorado, South Dakota and Missouri. Anneliesa works in Environmental Consulting for AECOM. Her professional background includes several years as General Manager for a renovated historic hotel in Maryland. That experience provided her with a deep understanding of hospitality that she applies to hosting guests in short term vacation rentals.

"Caring for the structures of the past is a worthy pursuit" says Architect Jim Smith of SmithsArchitects. He has a keen eye for historic preservation, and personally oversees all aspects of building and renovation. He loves to restore properties to their former beauty by working with original woodwork, detailing and period fixtures. As a result, you can literally FEEL HISTORY in the renovated spaces that is respectful to original builders and craftsman, and materials.

Together Anneliesa and Jim are building a portfolio of properties in historic settings that offer you a truly authentic experience of a period home, furnished with a view toward harmony, simplicity and modern comforts. Come, be our guest – and stay awhile!

We believe that good design has the power to affect you deeply, foster positive experiences, and bring people closer together - which makes this home perfect for reunions, a family vacation or romantic getaway.

This is one of two homes in Hannibal's Maple Avenue Historic District that is "impressive example which are more strictly (Frank Lloyd) Wrightian in their influence" according to the National Register of Historic Places.

Staying here offers you the experience of living in a Prairie Style House, inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright's visionary movement of creating homes in harmony with the natural environment that lifts the human spirit.

What sets this home apart from others is that its renovation was led by Architect and Co-owner Jim Smith, one of Denver's top architects. His love of historic homes, careful attention to period details, and discipline in renovating and furnishing a historic home is everywhere evident.
