The Frank Lloyd Wright–Inspired Home in "Mrs. Maisel" Is a Stunner—and it’s for Sale
In season three of the hit series, a coy Lenny Bruce invites Midge to "a work thing." The backdrop? A luxurious Frank Lloyd Wright–inspired estate that’s now on the market.
The ’60s were the heyday of live late-night. In episode five of the The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel’s latest season, well-dressed extras freeze mid-boogie, a countdown commences, and cameras roll on cue with the band as the party is set in motion. "Welcome to Miami’s hippest party, ‘Miami After Dark,’" says host Brye Adler, pipe in fist. "A gathering of the best, brightest, coolest cats and kittens in town. Grab a drink."
For the segment, the show set up shop inside the real-life Kessler House, a 1.8-acre estate that’s not in balmy Miami, but in bucolic Maplewood, New Jersey. The home was designed by John Rattenbury of Taliesin Associated Architects (TAA)—the firm created by Wright’s apprentices after his passing—and it’s currently for sale for $2.5 million.
The main living room set the scene for "Miami After Dark." The lavish interior features parquet teak floors, Italian marble, and floor-to-ceiling windows.
