We live about an hour away, so it's possible that my parents who live 5 minutes away could chip in to assist if necessary.
The street itself is a charming mix of different homes and families, many that have been there for generations.
Down the road is Manly Presbyterian Church, which has been serving the community for 140 years. It's also where my grandparents met!! (4 min walk.)
Turn the other direction and you can cross the train tracks to the local brewery, Southern Pines Brewing Company (8 min walk).
One more block and you can take in the breathtaking views of expansive horse farms and big skies.
The entire home is available for guest use.
There is a small garage located next to the home where guests can access backyard games. The garage is not available for parking cars.
The other side of the double lot (separated by a fence) has a large garage and greenhouse. This second lot and its buildings are not available for guest use but the view of the trees and flowers can be enjoyed from the home and outdoor spaces.
This 100-year-old home is a true family project built by my great-grandparents and restored by multiple family members. Sip sweet tea on the back porch while enjoying thunderstorms or watching the trains go by. Take in the sights of the towering pine trees while you pick muscadine grapes from the vines on the property. All while you have incredible access to downtown Southern Pines and nearby Pinehurst, as well as multiple renowned golf courses.
The home is single-story and situated on a massive double lot. On one side attached to the home is a flat backyard where you can play outdoor games such as disc golf, croquet, corn hole, soccer, and more. The second lot is full of pine trees and azaleas. Though guests will not have access to the second lot, they can enjoy the flora from several large windows in the home.
The cozy living room has one large chaise sectional and overlooks the front porch through the large window. The living room includes a 52" Smart TV where you can log into just about any app you choose.
There are four bedrooms, with five total beds:
-The primary bedroom includes a queen bed, stylish barn doors, a walk-in closet, and en suite bathroom with double vanity.
-The second bedroom is large and includes a queen bed, large dresser, and two modest-sized closets.
-The third bedroom has a bunk bed with a full-sized bed on the bottom and a twin on top, as well as a dresser and large closet.
-The fourth bedroom has a dedicated workspace, a closet with dresser, and a comfortable futon that sleeps 1-2. It has one large (dreamy) window overlooking the backyard.
Bathrooms:
-The primary bedroom has an en suite bathroom with shower and double vanity.
-The full bathroom has a generous double vanity, a bathtub with shower, and a toilet separated by a privacy wall. It has lots of storage to hold toiletries for multiple people.
The kitchen has everything you could want for an extended stay and for those who want to take advantage of some home cooking. It includes a K-pod coffee machine for single servings or a pot of coffee. Multiple flavors of coffee, tea, and hot chocolate are available.
The dining nook overlooks the back deck and features a large window with views of the second wooded lot. It includes a table that seats six, with two foldable chairs to add seating as needed. Swinging doors off of the dining room lead to the laundry area.
Tiny guests (aka babies and kids) are welcome here - a high chair, infant bath insert and toys are available. The littles will love the trains!
The property is just over one hour from Raleigh Durham International Airport (RDU).
It is mere minutes from the local train station where you can disembark from your Amtrak and stumble straight into the charm of downtown Southern Pines.
A car is the easiest way to access downtown, though it would be possible for more active guests to bike, jog, or walk.
Pinehurst No. 2 is just a 12-minute drive from the home. There are over 40 nearby golf courses throughout the area!
The passing trains are a feature of the home. Please be aware that you could hear one or more trains during night hours. For this reason we provide earplugs and a sound machine, but please bring whatever you need for you and your littles to sleep comfortably. (The train goes right through downtown, so this is a common noise heard throughout town - but not everybody gets to wave to the trains like we do!)
We are a keyless home. Upon booking you will receive a PIN that will open the front and back doors throughout your stay. The PIN will not work outside of your booking dates.
