5641 Holly Springs Drive

A masterfully composed architectural residence where museum-like grandeur meets monastic serenity. A monumental 12 ft copper entry door creates a sculptural first impression, its patina evolving gracefully with age. Soaring 16 to 21 ft ceilings, bleached wide-plank white oak floors, and 10-ft custom oak doors imported from Mexico define the home’s dramatic scale. A hammered travertine fireplace anchors the living room, while the kitchen centers on a monolithic Belgian bluestone island and reclaimed French concrete-tile wall. The primary bath is an immersive stone sanctuary with Mexican travertine milled from raw blocks. In the powder room, a nearly 1,000-lb 16th-century Siena travertine trough appears to float above ancient Roman stone flooring. Limewash and mineral paint from the Axel Vervoordt collection, a curved brass-topped bar, London pendants, and marble-clad secondary baths complete this extraordinary wabi-sabi composition.
