About the home

Originally designed by artist Boris Tomic, this thoughtfully restored residence reflects an increasingly rare point of view: architecture guided by restraint, proportion, light, and permanence rather than trend. The 2026 restoration modernized what required improvement and carefully preserved what mattered, creating a home that feels both established and current. The sculpted Tree of Life fireplace, created by Tomic himself, remains as the home's artistic centerpiece—a lasting connection to its origins. Natural light moves through interconnected living spaces throughout the day, revealing a calm palette of carefully selected materials. Custom walnut cabinetry by Dell Anno, crafted in Brazil using sustainable manufacturing practices, is carried throughout the home. Large-format porcelain surfaces and tile from Moderno Works and Ann Sacks bring exceptional durability, stain resistance, and heat resistance while avoiding the environmental impact associated with quarried stone. Every material was chosen not only for how it looks today, but for how it will perform and age over time. The kitchen is equipped with a Bosch 800 appliance suite and generous custom storage, while new Pella windows, refinished oak floors, architectural lighting, and updated systems create comfort without compromising the home's character. A loft overlooking the main living area offers a flexible office, studio, or reading retreat, and thoughtfully designed closet systems, wine storage, and integrated cabinetry bring a level of everyday functionality rarely found in homes of this scale. Outside, the covered side porch provides a quiet place to unwind beneath mature trees. The backyard remains intentionally open—a blank canvas with room for a future garden, outdoor entertaining space, or counter-current pool. Though modest in scale compared to many neighboring residences valued well above $2 million, the home lives larger than its footprint through careful planning, natural light, and efficient use of space. Located minutes from Uptown Charlotte, SouthPark, and Myers Park, with convenient access to Charlotte Douglas International Airport, the home offers a balance of architectural character and urban convenience that is increasingly difficult to find. This is a home for those who appreciate design, value craftsmanship, and prefer quiet confidence over excess. Thoughtfully restored, materially honest, and architecturally enduring, The Tomic House offers a rare opportunity to own a home shaped by a clear design philosophy and a lasting sense of place. Every meaningful home has a moment when opportunity becomes more visible. For qualified buyers, that moment may be now. The seller is offering $7,500 in seller paid closing costs, creating additional flexibility alongside a recent price improvement and making this thoughtfully transformed Cotswold residence more accessible than ever before.
