Rarely does a retreat-style property become available in the Whispering Pines/Carthage area- offering privacy, comfort, and a peaceful setting. This 3,400+ square foot single-story home sits on a private one-acre lot with an outdoor retreat designed for relaxing and entertaining. Enjoy the heated inground pool and hot tub (heater replaced in 2022). Relax by the fire pit gathering area or dine on the spacious screened porch with stunning wood plank ceiling. The backyard oasis is completed with a fenced yard, Zoysia sod, and practical storage shed.
Inside, the flexible floor plan offers ample room with three bedrooms, three full baths, two spacious living areas, and an additional flex room ideal as a fourth bedroom, office, or game room. Two fireplaces add warmth and character, while the oversized garage provides exceptional storage and functionality. The septic lines were replaced in 2024 for added peace of mind.
Located less than 15 minutes from Pinehurst Village, downtown Southern Pines, and downtown Carthage, this property combines privacy, convenience, and the increasingly rare appeal of spacious single-level living in the Sandhills. Homes offering this size, layout, and outdoor living setup rarely come available -- come experience it for yourself!
