This is a rare estate offering: a distinguished French Colonial manor designed by William McKnight Bowman set on approximately 15.65 acres that directly borders the protected Walthour‑Moss Foundation. The main residence (about 5,358 SF) is complemented by a striking 2,100 SF pool house, together yielding roughly 7,490 SF of living and entertaining space. Quality materials and thoughtful details define the property: a classic slate roof, original Crab Orchard tile at the grand entry, three fireplaces, elegant proportioned rooms, and a greenhouse that adjoins the primary suite corridor.
The pool house is more than a cabana — it’s a fully programmed outbuilding with a great room anchored by a stone-faced wood-burning fireplace, a generous kitchen, two bedrooms, two baths, dressing rooms and a laundry area. Outside, a gunite pool with tile surround and mature plantings create an immediate outdoor oasis. A private pond and miles of conservation trails at your property line expand the usable landscape for riding, walking, and birding.
Modern mechanical upgrades make the home easy to own today: three heat pumps with new ductwork (2022), a hardwired full-house generator installed in 2024, and a 1,000‑gallon propane tank for fuel reliability. The absence of a recorded attached garage presents an opportunity to site a barn or shop without disturbing the main estate composition — ideal for buyers seeking equestrian facilities, additional guest quarters, or a carriage house.
Located minutes from downtown Southern Pines’ dining and cultural offerings and a short drive to Pinehurst’s world-class golf venues, this property uniquely blends historic architectural pedigree with turnkey systems and exceptional acreage. Showings by appointment — please contact the listing broker to schedule a private tour and to receive the property package with mechanical records and site plans.
The property sits in the mature, wooded estate corridor of Southern Pines near the Walthour‑Moss Foundation. The area is characterized by large lots, equestrian activity, and easy access to Southern Pines’ downtown amenities and the Pinehurst golf complex. Residents value privacy, outdoor recreation, and the Sandhills lifestyle — a mix of year-round and seasonal residents including retirees, equestrian enthusiasts, and golf-oriented buyers.
Southern Pines and the broader Sandhills attract buyers seeking lifestyle attributes — golf, equestrian facilities, conservation access, and proximity to the region’s private schools and recreational offerings. The local market for single-family homes remains balanced, but luxury estates trade more slowly and at a premium when site attributes (acreage, privacy, conservancy adjacency) and quality construction are present. Median single-family prices in Moore County sit well below this offering, so marketing must emphasize the estate’s rarity and turnkey condition. Expect a targeted campaign to attract buyers from Raleigh, Charlotte, Fayetteville and coastal markets; be prepared for a measured negotiation timeline and to demonstrate system upgrades and zoning/utility confirmations early in the process.
