Property Description

In Pinehurst, North Carolina—the Home of American Golf—this 8,157-square-foot residence sits on 3.32 acres within The Country Club of North Carolina (CCNC), home to the Dogwood and Cardinal golf courses. The property's longest boundary runs alongside the tee and fairway of the Dogwood Course's scenic 11th hole, complemented by frontage on Lake Dornoch and expansive golf course and lake views. Towering pines and mature flowering trees frame the circular driveway, creating a memorable arrival. Sweeping curves and flared eaves give the home's distinctive roof elegance and architectural character. A substantial 2012 renovation and expansion added square footage to the vaulted great room and lower-level living room, where large windows fill the spaces with abundant natural light and frame golf course and lake views. The renovation also transformed the front grounds with a newly positioned circular driveway, redesigned entry, and new landscaping around the existing towering pines. Beautiful design meets relaxed everyday living in this "contemporary casual" home, as described by its multi-award-winning general contractor and engineer, Wayne Haddock. Professionally designed interiors feature custom cabinetry, extensive built-ins, and carefully selected finishes, giving each room its own character. Rich wood ceilings in the foyer, dining room, and club room add architectural interest, while pecan wood flooring brings warmth to the main level. Here, you'll find a vaulted great room with a gas fireplace framed by a substantial Francois & Co. mantel. The bright, airy kitchen with premium appliances opens to the breakfast area and a light-filled living room with a gas fireplace. Other highlights include a formal dining room and a separate club room with an adjoining wet bar and counter seating. Two offices offer distinct workspaces: one with rich wood cabinetry off the foyer, the other filled with sunlight and extensive shelving and storage. Morning sunlight welcomes you in the breakfast area, while sunsets filter through the pines at the front of the home. The primary suite includes generous walk-in closets, a private balcony, and a separate television room with QuietRock soundproofing. Its serene bathroom enjoys lake and fairway views and features a large walk-in shower, two water closets, and a soaking spa tub. Downstairs, the walk-out lower level offers three additional ensuite bedrooms and a spacious living area. The media room incorporates a fully equipped second kitchen with counter seating and opens to a temperature-controlled wine room with custom wood racking. Creative pursuits have their own space in the craft and hobby room, with extensive built-in cabinetry, generous work surfaces, and a sink for easy cleanup. Connecting the two floors, the elevator allows easy movement between levels, each free of interior steps or sunken rooms. Nearby, a lower-level guest suite pairs warm, inviting finishes with wide doorways, a generous shower entrance, and reinforced grab bars. Laundry on both levels, four full and four half baths, ample storage, and a three-car garage with an enclosed storage room and its own half bath add convenience. A screened porch, wraparound deck, and beautiful flagstone patio with gas fire pit create inviting outdoor gathering spaces. The expansive backyard offers room for special occasions, games, and kite flying overlooking the lake and fairway. After dusk, dramatic landscape lighting illuminates the grounds beneath bright, star-filled skies. Additional features include a whole-home generator, a roof replaced in 2024, landscape lighting installed in 2025, and landscaping refreshed in fall 2026. The club's swimming pool, tennis and pickleball courts are a short walk away, with the Village of Pinehurst just minutes from the home. This is an exceptional home in a remarkable location, moments from some of golf's most celebrated landmarks.
