I’m in love with Craft CMS (https://craftcms.com/).

I would highly recommend it. A lot of the big CMS developers like WordPress have certain conventions that you have to follow. If you need something outside of that "box" you really have to tie yourself in knots to get something custom.

Craft, on the other hand, leaves most of the structural design up to the developer. It also has a slick, built-in, live preview feature and easy localization.

Last but not least, they have a plugin that easily outputs your content as a RESTful API if you want to do a more modern JS front-end.

For small sites, the license is 100% free and then there's a nominal fee for larger sites.
