380 Flag Station Rd

C. Page Highfill designed homes, schools, & churches across Richmond — trained in the Frank Lloyd Wright tradition through his mentor Bud Hyland. In 1988, he got to design for his favorite client: himself & his family. The result is 380 Flag Station Road. Only on its second owner, the home has undergone thoughtful upgrades, along with extensive landscaping & hardscaping, all carefully executed to honor and preserve Highfill’s original design intent while elevating livability for today. Original slate floors are paired w/ warm hardwoods, while three wood-burning stone fireplaces anchor the home. The main living space is centered around a fireplace & extends to a balcony overlooking the backyard. A comprehensive 2012 renovation introduced custom Martin Star cabinetry in the kitchen & baths, complemented by Sub-Zero/Wolf appliances & Caesarstone counters in the eat-in kitchen. The dining room has upgraded lighting & retractable shades. All three main-level bedrooms have custom walk-in closets & private balconies, while the primary suite offers an ensuite bath, its own stone fireplace, & walk-in closet. Downstairs, is a large den, a stone fireplaces, a 4th bedroom/office, & workout room. The full bath features a one-of-a-kind solid walnut vanity & shelving by local furniture maker Zach Schaffer. The home is flooded with natural light & runs on smart automation — Nest thermostats, ADT security w/ cameras, & indoor/outdoor speaker wiring. Outdoors, the just over 3 acre property is a private retreat. A transformation by Ultimate Pools introduced an EcoSmart copper ionization pool w/ auto cover, gas heater, retractable deck shades, & gas fireplace. Landscaping & lighting lead down to the pool, while the fenced backyard has a shed, chicken coop, & firepit. Trails wind through the property, w/ bridges crossing a creek, & an invisible fence extending across much of the acreage. Tons of storage! Located off of River Rd., near 288, St Catherine’s fields, Collegiate Robins Campus, Portico Restaurant, & multiple country clubs.
