Hunts Point Home Designed By Famed Architect: $45 Million

The home was owned by Barney Ebsworth, one of the largest collectors of modern art in the world.

HUNTS POINT, WA - Even among many jaw-dropping homes built along the shores of Hunts Point, the late Barney Ebsworth's home really stands out.

The home was built in 2003 for Ebsworth by Seattle architect Jim Olson, known for buildings like the new Stewart Hotel in Belltown and the new Burke Museum of Natural History at the University of Washington. It appears Olson designed the home to showcase Ebsworth's art collection, which includes work by Georgia O'Keefe, Stuart Davis, and Willem de Kooning, among many others.

The home is reminiscent of Frank Lloyd Wright's "Fallingwater," with its sharp, slab-like lines and cantilevered rooms.
