About this home
A distinctive offering in Hollin Hills, this custom Charles Goodman home sits on one of the neighborhood’s most desirable streets. Formerly owned by Roberta Flack, the property blends architectural significance with privacy and exceptional outdoor living.
Set on a beautifully landscaped half-acre, the grounds have been deliberately shaped over time to create a quiet, immersive garden setting. Mature Japanese maples and layered plantings bring a sense of calm and seclusion from every angle.
Inside, a dramatic two-story entry and walls of glass fill the home with natural light and create a seamless connection to the outdoors. The kitchen is refined and functional, with quartz surfaces, stainless steel appliances, and views through the glass walls that define the home. The primary suite offers vaulted ceilings and a spa-like bath.
The lower level features a striking two-story brick fireplace, additional bedrooms, a full bath, and flexible living space including a private office.
A standout feature is the second living room—once used as Roberta Flack’s recording studio—wrapped in warm wood and rich with character.
The backyard is the showpiece. Thoughtful hardscaping, multiple outdoor living areas, and a pool create a private retreat that feels both composed and effortless—true to Goodman’s vision of indoor-outdoor living....
