Clauss Haus II Two-Night Stay in Little Switzerland, Knoxville, TN

Clauss Haus II is an early masterpiece of American modern design, conceived by Alfred Clauss and Jane West Clauss, former employees of Mies van der Rohe and Le Corbusier respectively. The pair chose to create a radical new housing development in an unexpected location, the ridge of Brown's Mountain near Knoxville, Tennessee. Although only completing five of the original ten planned houses, the Clauss' development of Little Switzerland is likely the first deed restricted (for modern design) enclave in the US. This residence, the second one occupied by the couple, has been extensively renovated since 2015 in order to not only bring it back to peak form but preserve the original forward-thinking design.

This auction is for a two-night stay in the home. 

Please note that stays at the Clauss Haus II will be available to be scheduled after 09.05.25 and will exclude home game Saturdays when the University of Tennessee is playing in Knoxville. The winning bidder must redeem this stay prior to 09.04.2026.
