A History of The Glass House
History • Pictures • Downloads
The Glass House is inspired by the Resor House, which was designed by revolutionary Bauhaus architect Mies van der Rohe in 1937 to straddle a creek in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
Although the Resor House was never built, the spirit of the original design was brought to life in the new Glass House here in beautiful rustic Maine.

(1886 – 1969)
The “modernistic” Glass House, perched on a bluff over the river, offers panoramic views, a river front deck and hot tub deck, as well as Zen gardens and a stainless steel monolith reminiscent of 2001: A Space Odyssey’s. The house features 3000 sq. ft. of fine living space with a super master suite, great bedrooms, a fantastic kitchen, creative lighting, and above all, glass.
