Description

Discover a truly special Hollin Hills Mid-Century Modern home, designed by Architect Charles Goodman with custom elements created specifically for the original homeowners.

The foyer opens through Japanese screens to the spacious living room, featuring a wood-burning fireplace set into a brick wall, custom built-in shelving, and an open staircase with Goodman-designed railings leading to the lower level. Two bedrooms are located on the main level, including a generously sized primary bedroom spanning the rear of the home, designed specifically for the original owners by Goodman with two closets including a large walk-in closet, . An oversized full bathroom completes the main level.

The lower level offers a comfortable family room/dining area with a second wood-burning fireplace, along with a large kitchen featuring a convenient pass-through.
