About this home
One of the most architecturally significant waterfront residences in MacGregor Downs, 200 Edinburgh A was created by renowned home designer William E. Poole. This presents a rare opportunity to own one of the Triangle's most distinctive residences. Perfectly positioned along the shores of MacGregor Lake, this one-of-a-kind end residence offers panoramic water views, exceptional privacy, and the feel of a detached home with lock-and-leave ease. Connected only by a courtyard wall, it shares no common living walls, making it truly unlike any other home within the intimate six-residence Edinburgh Place community.
Inspired by the timeless architecture of New Orleans, the home blends elegant Southern charm with classic wrought-iron detailing, gracious proportions, and extraordinary craftsmanship throughout. Beyond the custom steel front door, a sweeping curved staircase, extensive millwork, and travertine flooring introduce interiors designed for both grand entertaining and comfortable everyday living. The formal dining room overlooks the private garden courtyard, while a main-level bedroom or executive office with an adjacent full bath offers exceptional flexibility. The coffered-ceiling family room is anchored by one of four fireplaces and framed by a wall of French doors that capture breathtaking views across MacGregor Lake. Elevated above the shoreline, the home enjoys a tranquil, tree-lined setting that offers remarkable privacy year-round. Designed for culinary enthusiasts, the chef's kitchen features a coveted La Cornue six-burner range with griddle, generous preparation space, and a sunlit breakfast room with bay windows overlooking the lake. An elevator conveniently connects the three main living levels, including direct access from the garage level for effortless everyday living to the kitchen area and then exits within the owner's suite upstairs. The walk-out lower level functions beautifully as a private guest retreat or multigenerational living space, complete with a spacious den, fireplace, kitchenette, bedroom, full bath, and a dedicated wellness suite featuring both a sauna and steam room.
Upstairs, the gracious primary suite enjoys sweeping lake views through oversized bay windows and is complemented by a fireplace and a beautifully renovated spa-inspired bath that thoughtfully blends modern luxury with William E. Poole's timeless architectural vision. The laundry room is conveniently located adjacent to the primary suite and connects to the hallway leading to an additional guest suite with a private bath. The finished walk-up fourth floor offers outstanding flexibility as a recreation room, golf simulator, fitness studio, media room, or additional bonus space.
Residents may choose to join MacGregor Downs Country Club, offering social, dining, swimming, tennis, pickleball, and the renowned Willard Byrd-designed championship golf course established in 1967. Membership is optional and separate from Edinburgh Place and MacGregor Downs HOA dues. A residence of exceptional architectural pedigree, privacy, and craftsmanship, 200 Edinburgh A offers a lifestyle rarely found in one of Cary's most coveted communities....
