Modernist Home of the Month: Two Homes In One

Some things are just better in pairs (peanut butter and jelly, rock and roll, biscuits and gravy… the list goes on). The same goes for this recently renovated 1957 ranch—reborn as a one-level home with modern features and beautiful architectural details—and an accompanying accessory dwelling of almost 1,100 square feet of living space over a three-bay garage/workshop. Like your first crush, it’ll have you bubbling with excitement.

115 Oak Street in Carrboro is currently listed at $950,000 with Adrian Brown from Inhabit Real Estate. Keep scrolling for all the amazing details, and once you’re blown away, give us a call at 919-877-6708 to see it in person! We would love to represent you as a buyer.

Main House

Hold onto your hats, mod-style fans. The decor in this home is phenomenal with a capital P! Let’s start in the living room, which features a contemporary black fireplace that instantly catches the eye of whoever enters the home. The opposite wall is covered with a stunning wood panel that balances the room out and creates a homey vibe.

The open kitchen/dining room area serves up a splash of color with teal cupboards and a plum island. Peep the built-in wine rack—essential for displaying all your best bottles!

The primary bedroom gets a ton of natural light from all the windows, and the gorgeous hardwood floors make any furniture setup look amazing.

Relax and rejuvenate in the primary bathroom, which features a pull-out mirror at the sink and lovely tiling around the bathtub. So serene!

The remaining bedrooms are homey and naturally light-filled as well and offer enough space to put in a desk for a makeshift office nook.

There are two outdoor spaces worthy of al fresco dining, happy hours, or just enjoying the fresh air with a good book. Come summer, lay out on the deck for some sun, and, in the wintertime, the covered porch protects from cold, bad weather.

Guest House

The guest house is just as cool and cozy as the main home. It’s perfect for housing friends and family as they get a space all to their own—and it’s right out in your backyard! It even has its own kitchen, so guests won’t have to venture to the main house for a late-night snack.

The whole top floor features a row of windows, which flood the bedrooms with natural light as well.

Last, but certainly not least, is the huge garage/workshop, which can fit up to three cars and/or tools and has plenty of extra storage space. It’s great for those who like to do home projects or have picked up a hobby during quarantine.
