Fans of open-plan interiors can indulge in Raleigh’s dramatically airy Bridge House, a 5,231-square-foot contemporary home named for its long, bridge-like entry path and rear deck. Inside, the living, dining, and kitchen areas all fit in one giant, open space under vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and large windows that flood the place with natural light. Details here include wide plank oak flooring, cherry and walnut cabinetry, and slate tile accents walls in the entryway.
Besides the master bedroom, which along with a balcony sit on the main level, the remaining three bedrooms and a family room are located on the lower level. There’s also an upper level living area currently used as an "exercise loft."
On the market for the first time since it was completed in 2008, Bridge House was designed by Chad Parker and Brett Hautop of Vernacular Studio, which merged with powerhouse firm Gensler in 2011.
