About this home
Acreage & Architecturally distinctive contemporary home nestled among mature trees, featuring bold geometric lines, concrete block construction, and expansive windows that frame wooded views. Multi-level decks, dramatic ceiling heights, and a striking spiral staircase create visual interest throughout, while warm wood elements balance the modern design with natural character.
Thoughtfully designed and built by noted designer Thomas Reilly, who personally resided in the home, the property reflects a level of craftsmanship and intentional design rarely found. The residence received recognition for its architectural design, further underscoring its significance and originality. The home was created to connect indoor and outdoor living, offering multiple gathering spaces that feel both open and inviting. Walls of glass and soaring ceilings create a sense of volume and light, while the unique layout provides architectural interest at every turn. The hillside setting enhances privacy and delivers peaceful treetop views from nearly every room.
The main living areas showcase rich wood accents, exposed structural elements, and an airy, light-filled ambiance that complements the home's contemporary style. The sculptural spiral staircase serves as a central design feature, adding both function and visual drama. A dedicated piano room provides a distinctive and inspiring space for music, creativity, or quiet retreat, adding to the home's unique architectural character. Custom built-ins throughout the residence enhance both functionality and design continuity, offering tailored storage and display solutions that blend seamlessly with the home's aesthetic.
Outside, expansive decks and terraces provide versatile spaces for relaxing, dining, and gathering, all surrounded by the beauty of the natural landscape. An accent wall crafted from reclaimed wood—reportedly sourced from a historic pirate ship—serves as a memorable focal point and conversation piece, highlighting the home's distinctive materials and storytelling elements. The property's elevated position and mature tree canopy create a tranquil setting that feels tucked away, yet remains conveniently located.
Blending distinctive architecture with comfortable everyday living, this one-of-a-kind residence offers character, privacy, and a setting that celebrates its natural surroundings—an exceptional opportunity for buyers seeking something truly unique. Additional practical features include a convenient storage room located beneath the carport/drive area, providing valuable space for tools, seasonal items, or outdoor equipment....
