320 Granite St, Henderson, NC 27536

Designed and built as the personal residence of local architect Eric Flannagan Jr., this 1950 mid-century modern gem is a rare piece of North Carolina history. Tucked away, just North of Durham and Raleigh, this home is a one-of-a-kind opportunity for discerning buyers who value character, craftsmanship, and grounded luxury. From the moment you step inside, you're met with breathtaking views that extend through a wall of windows to the private, wooded acre beyond. The entry, living, and dining rooms are each on their own level, creating a lofted, gallery-like feel—yet the layout flows naturally, with a sense of openness and connection throughout. This is a home that stirs emotion: soaring cathedral ceilings with exposed cedar beams, warm wood paneling, and brick flooring give it the kind of texture and soul only time and good design can create. Thoughtful updates—including a new roof and skylights (2022) and designer details woven throughout—honor the home's integrity while ensuring modern comfort. Featuring two fireplaces, built-ins, original hardwoods, and a 400+ sq ft flex space with laundry and half bath—perfect for a home gym, studio, or workshop. Outdoors, enjoy multiple entertaining areas: a brick patio off the living room, a bricked front porch patio, and a screened side porch for morning coffee or evening breezes. The acre lot includes mature landscaping in the front, room for a large garden in back, and privacy on all sides. Fiber internet is available, making it an ideal retreat for remote work. Located just minutes from downtown Henderson, within 15 minutes of Kerr Lake and two country clubs with golf courses, the home offers a rare blend of tranquil living with nearby amenities. The wide streets and large lots of this quiet neighborhood evoke a timeless charm—with the added bonus of city services. Every detail of this home has been lovingly curated and cared for by just two families over 75+ years. This is a home that invites preservation, not reinvention—meant for those who recognize beauty, uniqueness, and soul when they see it. A rare chance to steward a living piece of art and history.
