The Boulter House was designed near the end of Frank Lloyd Wright’s life (1868-1959). The home is a unique, two-story south-facing Usonian. The "Usonian" term was coined from Wright’s vision of suburbia in the United States of North America offering well-designed homes for middle class American families.

In 2003 Chuck Lohre and Janet Groeber purchased the Boulter House. Chuck had studied architecture at the University of Kentucky but started working for his father's advertising agency, Lohre & Assoc. , and never finished his studies. The home rekindled his interest in architecture and started a journey to learn what happened to Wright's Organic Architecture principals in the intervening 30 years. Chuck learned about the U.S. Green Building Council's LEED (Leadership in Energy and Enviromental Design) program and has taken to using the home to promote LEED projects in the region.
