This true mid-century modern home was designed and built by noted Richmond architect, Alan McCullough, and is situated on a 2.26-acre hilltop lot south of Cary. Custom-built in 1957, this 4800+ square foot home has been spectacularly renovated by the current owners and incorporates the clean lines, open floor plan, walls of glass and the harmony of indoor and outdoor spaces which are hallmarks of the mid-century style. With 4/5 bedrooms and 3 full + 2 half baths, this stunning contemporary offers the ease of one-floor living and an elevator for lower level access. From the pretty cobblestone driveway, enter the house through a custom walnut pivot door that introduces you to a sun-drenched interior with floor-to-ceiling windows and French oak floors. The sleek kitchen with quartz countertops and walnut cabinetry spills into the open and airy dining and living areas. A mudroom/laundry room and large new full bath connect the kitchen to a pretty sunroom (or 5th bedroom) with woodland views. A cozy library with fireplace retains special original features (rich paneling, random-width wood floors, built-ins with wet bar and record-player!). Providing easy flow from inside to outside spaces, an upper bluestone terrace is accessible from the sunroom, dining and living rooms and library. The grand-scale primary suite opens onto a balcony and features 2 generous walk-in closets and a gorgeous bath with zero-entry shower and mahogany cabinetry. The lower level offers 3 nice bedrooms, 1 1/2 baths, a large rec room, a 2nd laundry room and a fully-equipped kitchenette with sitting area. A lower bluestone terrace transitions to an expanse of level greenspace framed by curved brick walls and mature trees - ultimate privacy and room for a pool! An attached 2-car garage, new roof, new Pella windows with custom blinds, new generator and upgraded systems further enhance this exceptional property, just a short stroll to schools, churches, shops and dining in the West End.
