The estate is situated on a bluff overlooking Lake Erie and covers 8.5 acres of land.

The Graycliff Estate was built between 1926 and 1931 for the wealthy Isabelle R. Martin and her husband, Darwin D. Martin, a prominent businessman and patron of the arts.

The main house is a stunning example of Wright's organic architecture, which seamlessly integrates the building with its natural surroundings.

In 1997, the Graycliff Estate was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Since then, the Graycliff Conservancy has been working tirelessly to restore the estate to its former glory. The organization offers tours of the estate to the public, as well as educational programs and events. In addition, the conservancy operates a gift shop and hosts special events, such as weddings and corporate events, on the estate grounds.
