There's a reason why the late architect Frank Lloyd Wright is a household name.

From the late 19th century to the early 20th century, he pioneered the Prairie School movement of architecture, characterized by horizontal lines, flat roofs with broad eaves, and an integration with the natural landscape. The style was part of many single-family home designs across the country during this time.

Wright's final home was designed for a couple, Norman and Aimee Lykes of Phoenix, Arizona, in 1957. They lived there until the mid-1980s, when another family moved in.

Now it's back on the market for a whopping $3.25 million.

Here's a look inside the home, one of 14 circular residences Wright designed in his lifetime.
