About This Home
As of November 2025A Rare Historic Oakwood Opportunity! This one-of-a-kind residence—designed by a prominent local architect as his personal home—has been celebrated in Better Homes & Gardens Building Ideas (Winter 1990) and NC Home (April 1992). Thoughtfully crafted to harmonize with the historic fabric of Oakwood, it pairs contemporary design with timeless character.
Set well back from the street, the home offers a welcoming brick driveway and walkway surrounded by natural landscaping, creating generous front-yard space for gatherings or play. Step inside the dramatic two-story foyer, where warm cedar tongue-and-groove ceilings meet bold white angular walls, setting the stage for an inspired interior.
The family room features soaring floor-to-ceiling windows, a coffered ceiling, and a striking gas fireplace framed by glass block and black marble. Just beyond, a private retreat opens to a side courtyard—ideal for a home office, playroom, or studio.
The gourmet kitchen is equipped with quartz counters, gas range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, and abundant cabinetry, flowing seamlessly into a light-filled dining room with bay windows and stylish pendant lighting.
Upstairs, the owner's suite impresses with vaulted cedar ceilings, dual closets, and an updated spa-like bath with walk-in shower and dual vanities. Two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and convenient laundry complete the second floor. Throughout, built-in bookcases, cabinetry, and lighted niches offer elegant display and storage solutions.
Don't miss the versatile purpose room—perfect for fitness, office, or creative space—tucked on the exterior left side of the home. Outdoor living shines with a private courtyard and landscaped backyard designed to be enjoyed from the home's many windows. A fenced yard and storage shed add everyday convenience.
