Architecturally significant and truly one-of-a-kind, this striking contemporary residence in Richmond’s coveted South of Cary neighborhood blends timeless design, exceptional entertaining spaces and a remarkable connection to nature. Thoughtfully reimagined by noted architect Fred Cox and renovation executed by Taylor & Parrish, the home is filled with soaring ceilings, dramatic walls of glass, elevated accent windows, and abundant natural light throughout. The open, yet distinct living spaces include a stunning living room with a stone fireplace, vaulted, airy dining room with exposed brick accents, an expansive chef’s kitchen featuring Viking and Sub-Zero appliances, granite countertops and custom cabinetry and a spectacular library with built-in bookcases, wet bar and pass-through to the kitchen. The adjoining media/family room offers walls of glass, a second wet bar, custom cabinetry, fireplace and seamless access to the stone patio, creating exceptional indoor-outdoor flow. The vaulted primary suite is a peaceful retreat with en-suite bath and generous storage, while two additional bedrooms and a renovated hall bath complete the main level. A lower-level flex space with fireplace provides the perfect office, den, or studio. Outside, professionally landscaped grounds feature stone walkways, mature gardens, a private patio, flat lawn areas, irrigation and a detached shed. An additional buildable lot at 207 Paxton Road is included, offering a rare opportunity for expansion, recreation, or future development. Additional highlights include a steel roof, whole-house generator, Pella windows, extensive custom built-ins, media system and covered carport parking. A rare offering that combines architectural pedigree, modern amenities, and an exceptional location close to Carytown, the James River and Richmond’s finest shopping and dining.
