Built in 1968, the house was designed by Keck & Keck, an architectural firm consisting of brothers George Fred Keck and William Keck. The duo designed many midcentury modern homes around the Chicago area after World War II, and they were among the early proponents of designing homes with passive solar heating.
“It was all original — it had been maintained well but not updated, so I knew a buyer would need to be somebody with a love of architecture,” Baker said. “There’s not a single square or rectangular room — there are no right angles. The house has all these unusual angles, and it has two separate basement foundations on either side of the creek. It was such a unique piece of art.”
