Property Description

4937 Taproot Lane is an award-winning residence designed by Katherine Hogan Architects (formerly Tonic Design) that blends modern architecture with a deep respect for its natural surroundings, creating a home that feels both sophisticated and serene, and also deeply connected to its wooded setting. Inside, expansive floor-to-ceiling glass dissolves the line between inside and out, allowing light to move freely through the living spaces and beautifully framing the home's natural setting. The layout features open shared living spaces designed for gathering and connection, paired with retreat-like bedroom suites. This balance of public and private spaces creates a natural rhythm that feels both intentional and effortless. High-quality materials anchor the home; Corten Steel exterior, reclaimed antique wood floors, refurbished vintage industrial light fixtures, and bespoke metalwork all work together to balance the sleek modern aesthetic with warmth, texture, and detailed craftsmanship. A recently completed deck extends the home outward, offering an additional way to enjoy the outdoors from morning coffee among the trees to evening gatherings under the stars. Recognized with a 2017 AIA North Carolina Residential Design Merit Award, this home is designed not to impress loudly, but to live beautifully, now and well into the future.
