Tucked into the established neighborhood in the Whispering Pines area, this custom-built 4-bedroom, 2-bath home offers something hard to find at this price: real privacy. With a neighbor on just one side, woods lining the other, and a fully tree-screened buffer behind, the backyard feels like your own private retreat.
Built with an estate-style design, the home's 2,150 square feet of well-kept living space (county-confirmed) spreads across a comfortable single-story layout with soaring vaulted ceilings that make the open great room feel even larger. A cozy gas fireplace anchors the living room, and a bright, open Carolina room flows right into the kitchen and living area — a flexible bonus space that works as a den, home office, second dining area, or play room. Four true bedrooms mean room for kids, guests, a home office, or all three. Warm hardwood laminate flooring runs through the main living areas, with tile in the foyer and kitchen, and the kitchen is original — ready for the next owner to put their own stamp on it, priced accordingly.
Out back, the fully fenced yard offers privacy and room to play, with a 12×20 storage shed (powered and lit) and a metal gazebo that both convey — perfect for weekend projects, entertaining, or simply relaxing in your private, wooded retreat. A garden bed rounds out the outdoor space. Out front, classic brick-and-shake curb appeal, mature landscaping, and a 2-car attached garage with a long driveway complete the package.
Location is the standout:
• In the desirable Whispering Pines area — lakes, parks, and an established community feel
• About 35–40 minutes to Fort Bragg — an easy commute by area standards, ideal for military families

What the owner loves about this home
When we first pulled onto Russet Court, it was the quiet that won us over — and that's still the thing I'll miss most. With woods on one side and no neighbors behind us, the backyard has always felt like our own private corner of the world. I've spent more mornings than I can count out in the Carolina room with a cup of coffee.
That bright, open Carolina room honestly became the heart of the house — it flows right into the kitchen and living room, so wherever everyone was, we were all together. The fenced yard gave our kids and dog room to run, and the gazebo is where we ended up for every cookout and warm evening with friends.
I've loved being tucked into a peaceful, established neighborhood while still being minutes from everything — the schools, Sandhills, shopping — and close to the Whispering Pines lakes and trails. It manages to feel private and convenient at the same time, which is harder to find than you'd think.
Whoever buys this home is getting a quiet, well-cared-for retreat that's been easy to love. I hope you make as many good memories here as we have.
