This adorable downtown Southern Pines cottage is the kind of place buyers fall for fast. Currently operating as a successful short-term rental, it offers the flexibility to purchase as an established STR or make it your own primary residence. Inside, you'll find durable LVP flooring, granite countertops, and a layout that's both cozy and functional. Outside, the covered porch invites slow mornings with coffee, while the fire pit sets the scene for relaxed evenings under the stars.
Location is everything, and this one absolutely delivers—just a short walk to Southern Pines' favorite shops, pubs, parks, and restaurants. Guests (or future you) can park the car and enjoy the best of downtown living on foot. Whether you're looking for a turnkey investment or a charming home with serious character, this cottage checks all the boxes: style, walkability, and income potential wrapped into one irresistible package.
