Modernist Home of the Month: 23 Scott Place in Durham

It’s not very often that our jaw drops at the sight of a home, but the magnificent 23 Scott Place in Durham made our jaws hit the ground! Designed by French-American architect Jon Condoret, this breathtaking modernist home features floor-to-ceiling windows—letting in ALL the natural light—and a natural cut rock floor that’s unlike anything you’ve ever seen before.

Listed for sale by the team at Keller Williams Legacy at $1,250,000, it’s certainly a dream property… but we can all dream, right?! 😉

We’re absolutely in LOVE with this property and think you will be too! If you’re interested, our team at Hillman Real Estate Group would love to represent you as a buyer for this dream home located adjacent to Duke Forest and Beuhler Trail. Just wait until we tell you about all of the unique and wonderful details!

First Floor

The first-floor master bedroom is to-die-for and quite spacious with a walk-in closet for extra storage, plus features like floor-to-ceiling windows on one wall for catching gorgeous views of the forest and pool in the backyard all day long.

The chef’s kitchen features custom cabinetry, a gas stove, pot filler, and stainless steel appliances that are a modern contrast to the natural wood cabinets.

We also love the huge, open great room—so much space for entertaining!—and the wood-burning fireplace. A formal living room and dining room are on the other side of the house.

One of our other favorite features of the first floor is the home office, where rows of built-in bookshelves cover two walls—providing plenty of space for storing books, files, and other materials.

Second Floor

Four bedrooms grace the second floor, complete with plenty of closet space.

Even the bathroom is stunning! Just look at all the tile work!

The back deck is great for taking in all the beautiful views!

Finished Basement

The lower level boasts a cool wet bar with vintage wood countertops, a sink, and a funky wine rack, all perfect for having friends over for drinks by the pool!

There’s also an additional studio room downstairs, which can be used for extra entertaining space, another private office, or a home gym.

Whoever gets the downstairs bedroom has prime access to the pool, along with their own bathroom and plenty of closet space!

The best part of the whole property? The pristine in-ground pool! Complete with a small sandy beach, wood and brick walkways, a hammock, and lounge chairs, this backyard oasis is surely where you’ll spend most of your time!
