This magnificent $10M Lake Las Vegas house was designed by a Frank Lloyd Wright apprentice

A lakefront estate in Lake Las Vegas is bringing a rare architectural pedigree to the desert.

The $9.99 million residence at 10 Sunrise Beach Circle was designed by Swaback Architects + Planners, the Scottsdale-based firm founded by a former apprentice of legendary architect Frank Lloyd Wright.

Spanning roughly 12,015 square feet, the home reflects Wright’s philosophy of organic architecture, with long horizontal lines, natural materials, and expansive glass that frames views of the surrounding desert mountains and the private lake beyond.

Located inside the guard-gated The Estates at Lake Las Vegas, the property pairs its architectural lineage with resort-style amenities — including a 60-foot pool, private boat dock, oversized RV garage, and interiors designed for both quiet retreat and large-scale entertaining.

Perched along the private shoreline of Lake Las Vegas, the home at 10 Sunrise Beach Circle blends desert architecture with waterfront living.

The 12,015-square-foot residence is positioned to maximize sweeping views of desert mountains and the lake, creating a striking setting that feels far removed from the bustle of nearby Las Vegas.

The property is listed for $9,990,000 with Cindy Scott of Douglas Elliman.

The home was designed by Scottsdale-based Swaback Architects + Planners, a studio founded by architect Vernon Swaback, who trained under legendary architect Frank Lloyd Wright.

That lineage is evident throughout the residence. The architecture follows Wright’s philosophy of organic design, emphasizing strong horizontal lines, natural materials, and a layout that integrates the surrounding landscape into daily living.

The structure leans heavily into the desert-modern aesthetic. Long horizontal rooflines, layered stone and wood textures, and expansive glass surfaces allow the architecture to echo the surrounding terrain.

Rather than competing with the environment, the design frames it, allowing the lake, desert mountains, and changing light to become part of the home’s visual composition.

Floor-to-ceiling glass frames the desert mountains and private lake

Walls of glass run throughout the home, capturing panoramic views in nearly every direction.

These windows blur the boundary between interior and exterior spaces, pulling the desert landscape and shimmering water into the home. At sunrise and sunset, the nearby mountains catch the shifting desert light, creating a constantly evolving backdrop.
