Set on 1.34 acres in Cary's MacGregor West, 104 Marseille Place occupies a quiet street of just ten estate homes, framed by stone pillars, graceful arches, and mature trees. Built over two years using approximately 77,000 bricks, the residence reflects a level of craftsmanship, architectural detail, and material investment that… Read More would be exceptionally costly to replicate today. Extensive renovations and improvements throughout the home and grounds have preserved that original quality while introducing modern design, functionality, and infrastructure upgrades. Inside, marble floors and a dramatic staircase introduce the foyer, where soaring 20-foot ceilings extend into the family room. Custom windows frame the pool beyond, creating an uninterrupted sightline from the front entry through the heart of the home. A wood-burning fireplace with a gas starter anchors the family room, while a formal dining room with a swinging door, billiards room with a gas fireplace, and updated wet bar provide additional spaces for gathering. Custom poplar crown moldings, substantial architectural millwork, and Baldwin hardware speak to the quality of construction. Ten-foot ceilings throughout much of the main level and nine-foot ceilings upstairs further distinguish the home's proportions. The kitchen renovation introduced an entirely new layout, custom cabinetry, and continuous hardwood flooring connecting the kitchen, dining, and living spaces. Separate 30-inch Thermador refrigerator and freezer columns are concealed within the cabinetry, alongside a 48-inch gas rangetop with custom hood, double ovens (top is steam), and two Sapphire dishwashers. A five-foot Galley Workstation with dual faucets is complemented by a separate cleanup sink. A built-in coffee system, beverage and wine refrigeration, and Scotsman ice maker extend the kitchen's functionality into the adjoining coffee and bar areas. The renovation also included a redesigned laundry room and dedicated art studio. The main-floor primary suite spans more than 1,000 square feet, with an en-suite bath, separate custom walk-in closets, a private study, and a sitting room with a gas fireplace. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms and a flexible bonus room with kitchenette offer additional space, including the option for a second office. California Closets installations in five rooms provide custom organization, while an expansive two-story unfinished attic offers substantial storage and potential for future finished space. Beyond the home, mature landscaping surrounds the Roman-shaped, 20-by-40-foot saltwater pool and fenced backyard. The pool slide and in-ground trampoline add to the outdoor amenities, while a private well supplies landscape irrigation. A covered portico connects the side entry to the detached three-car garage. Significant investment has also gone into the home's exterior, grounds, strategic removal of trees, and landscape enhancements. All exterior doors, with the exception of the preserved original front entry, have been replaced with premium Renewal by Andersen products. The front entry was refreshed with new Baldwin hardware and custom lanterns, complemented by architectural uplighting. Additional improvements include updated interior lighting, Cat6 wiring, and recent crawl space upgrades with a new vapor barrier and dehumidifier. The roof was replaced by the original owners in 2017 with all-copper valleys, and three separate HVAC systems serve the residence. Seller is a licensed NC real estate broker and the listing agent.
