Nationally Registered Usonian Cottage at Lynn Hall by FLW's Fallingwater Builder

The very definition of Organic Modernism, with its harmonious connection to its mountain-side location, this mid-century modern cottage, was designed and built by father and son duo Walter J. Hall and Raymond Viner Hall, whose work would catch the attention of Frank Lloyd Wright, is a prime example of Usonian architecture and would ultimately come to define Allegheny Modernism.

Constructed with stone quarried on-site, the 1200 sqft cottage rises outward and seemingly clings to the hillside with a ships-prow window that cantilevers off the living room. Both the interior and exterior are clad with oversized redwood shiplap siding — punctuated by Walter’s signature mosaic stone work.

Within the interior ceilings compress and rise as you move from the intimate spaces to the common areas. Transverse lines define the organic living spaces. The kitchen retains the original and fully restored cabinetry. A central living area with a unique central fireplace features dramatic views of the valley and mountains beyond.

Adding to the design aesthetic, the owners have enhanced the interiors with original art (inside and out), high-end furnishings and unique design winning accessories. Curated touches such as pressed scented linen sheets, anti-bacterial spa towels, and epicurean snacks to enhance the experience.

The cottage features two queen-sized bedrooms, a modernized bath with a walk-in shower, and three primary terraces, an outdoor dining area with a wood burning fireplace and gas grill, a fountain courtyard terrace perfect for morning coffee and a front garden terrace.

This cottage offers its guests barbecue grills and a garden. The front desk is open around the clock.

This Port Allegany cottage is smoke free.
