Set on more than 15 acres bordering the Walthour-Moss Foundation, this distinctive Southern Pines estate offers a rare combination of timeless architecture, privacy and natural beauty. Designed by renowned New York architect William McKnight Bowman, the over 5000 square-foot main residence features a classic slate roof, grand entrance and graciously proportioned living spaces. The home offers five bedrooms and four-and-a-half baths, including a main-level primary suite. The back patio is flanked by a stone water feature that provides a tranquil setting for birdwatching and views of pasture and pond. The separate 2,100-square-foot guest house is ideal for entertaining and recreation. It was originally built as a pool house and has two dressing rooms with showers and a laundry room. The space offers so much more with its expansive great room, spacious kitchen and stone-faced wood-burning fireplace. In addition, there are two bedrooms. This the perfect space to accommodate pool side gatherings, social functions or overnight guests. A separate one bedroom apartment offers additional flexibility for a farm manager or guest accommodation. The beautifully landscaped grounds include fenced pasture, a private pond, a bocce ball court and ample room for a custom barn. An equestrian easement over the property provides direct access to the Foundation. With its architectural character, versatile accommodations and exceptional setting, this is a rare opportunity to own a private estate in the heart of Southern Pines horse country.
