Fantastic opportunity to live in an Architect's home! This Modernist Masterpiece was designed and built by Architect Don Whitten for his growing family. Nestled in a large wooded homesite adjacent to Barnard's Creek, the Philippine Mahogany-sided home fits into its natural environment as if it grew up in that very location with the trees that surround it. The home is oriented and open towards the creek and the wildlife that inhabit it, offering complete privacy from the street and neighbors. Once inside, all rooms and views are focused to the serene natural areas of the creek and the daily sunsets behind it. Expansive decks across the back create additional outdoor living and entertaining space for year-round enjoyment. The layout of the home is artistic, functional and spacious. The main living areas are open with Brazilian cherry floors throughout, vaulted ceilings and expansive glass doors overlooking the creek. The kitchen features stainless appliances, granite tops, breakfast bar and built-in desk. There is an elegant Master Suite with his & her closets, master bath and a balcony. 2 other bedrooms, a loft and laundry room are upstairs. There is a separate, unique guest or mother-in-law suite with full bath that can also be used as an income-producing Airbnb or home office. On the ground level, there is a separate 427-sf all-purpose room that could be a bedroom, studio, office or rec room. Finally, the detached workshop/gym/studio structure compliments the architecture of the home. Barnard's Creek offers access by boat to the Cape Fear River. This is a unique opportunity to live in a custom home which is guaranteed to increase your quality of life and offer you enjoyment and serenity every day!! The 2476-sf of heated space includes the 322-sf detached finished guest suite on the main level.
