Historic Fullam House in Newtown Hits Zillow Gone Wild at $5.85 Million

The Fullam House in Wrightstown Township, designed by architect Paul Rudolph in 1959, blends local fieldstone with sweeping glass walls and distinctive cantilevered rooflines.

The Paul Rudolph-designed Fullam House in Newtown is drawing fresh national attention after appearing on a popular real estate platform, according to Zillow Gone Wild.

Set into a wooded hillside in Wrightstown Township, the home was designed in 1959 for federal judge John P. Fullam and his wife, Alice.

The project marks one of Paul Rudolph’s earliest residential works, created at a time when his architectural voice was still forming.

What stands out is how clearly the home reflects that moment. The design blends mid-century modern ideas with the natural character of Bucks County.

Local fieldstone grounds the structure, while large glass walls and clerestory windows pull the outside in.

The multi-level layout and sharp rooflines show Rudolph beginning to push toward the sculptural style that would later define his career.

For decades, the house remained largely out of view. At the request of the Fullam family, it was not widely published during Rudolph’s lifetime.

That choice kept it out of architectural conversations, even as his reputation grew.

Only in recent years has Fullam House gained broader recognition, including its listing on the National Register of Historic Places in 2019.

Now listed for $5.85 million, the home is reaching a new audience.

Its appearance on Zillow Gone Wild has put it in front of readers who may not follow architecture closely, but recognize something distinct when they see it.
