Walk to downtown Southern Pines from this 2025-built Druther Homes, move-in ready home tucked on a quiet dead-end street with woods in front and no through traffic. Offering 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and 2,264 square feet, this thoughtfully designed traditional home blends modern comfort with high-performance construction. Inside, natural light fills the open-concept layout, anchored by a chef-inspired kitchen with quartz countertops, premium appliances, abundant storage, and soft-close cabinetry. The living area centers around a sleek gas fireplace, creating an inviting space to gather or unwind. A main-level bedroom and full bath offer flexibility for guests, remote work, or multi-generational living.
