The Murray Whisnant House: A Hidden Mid-Century Gem at 6366 Rosemary Lane

If you love bold architecture, clean lines, and homes with a story, you’re going to want to know about 6366 Rosemary Lane  in Charlotte, North Carolina. Also known as the Murray Whisnant Residence, this place isn’t just a house—it’s a statement.

Built in 1968 by architect Murray Whisnant as his personal residence, this home is a perfect example of mid-century modern design done right. Welcome to the “Tree House”

The home sits on a beautifully wooded lot—almost an acre—and thanks to floor-to-ceiling glass and its elevated layout, you feel like you’re living in the treetops. It’s peaceful, private, and pretty magical.

The outside has this great mix of natural and industrial materials: cypress wood siding, cinder block, metal roofing, and steel I-beams. It sounds like a lot, but it all comes together in a way that feels both sturdy and stylish.
