RARE Pick of the Week: 2109 Paul Spring Road -- Alexandria, VA

What makes this a RARE pick?

I guess we have a thing for Mid-century modern homes because we feature them a lot here… The listing write-up is pretty perfect, so let’s just re-post it here:

“This iconic home is one of the largest in Hollin Hills with two architectural additions. The Charles Goodman # 6 with butterfly roof is both stunning and completely livable and has been featured in numerous design publications. It's artist-owners have continually improved the original home with attention to design and detail at every turn. Featuring walls of windows and floors ranging from hardwood to Durastone, 4 bedrooms, 2 en suite baths plus a 3rd full bath, upper and lower living areas each with wood-burning fireplace and floor to ceiling windows looking out on lush surroundings. The kitchen, complete with a chef's dream vintage commercial Viking stove, opens to dining and living space that then flows to outdoor patio space and garden. The curving-walled additions, designed by Robert C Smith in 1969 and Patrick Collin in 1981, include a large studio/office space, an entry hall/gallery with soaring glass door and a lower level workshop. Enjoy the outdoors on the upper deck that's cleverly built into the curved studio wall, on the upper and lower flagstone patios, and in the meandering stone garden paths.
