Built in 1925 and tucked behind mature landscaping on nearly two private acres in historic Weymouth Heights, 140 Arbutus Road is the kind of Southern Pines home that simply cannot be recreated. Set well back from the street behind a sweeping circular gravel drive, this 4,491-square-foot estate feels remarkably secluded, yet sits just minutes from downtown Southern Pines. Weymouth Heights was conceived more than a century ago around its natural landscape, with winding roads, generous wooded homesites and a sense of privacy that remains one of the neighborhood's defining characteristics. 140 Arbutus is a beautiful reflection of that history, with original hardwood floors, masonry fireplaces, gracious proportions and architectural details collected over a century of living. The welcom ing foyer introduces the home's gracious scale and timeless character, with a natural flow into the formal dining room and main living spaces. The living room centers around a double-sided gas-log fireplace, while built-in bookcases line the passage into a richly paneled mahogany study overlooking the pool. On the opposite side of the fireplace, an extraordinary sunroom is wrapped in casement windows beneath a glass ceiling, creating one of the home's most memorable spaces. At the heart of the home, the kitchen pairs warmth and character with function, featuring granite countertops, open wood shelving, a six-burner gas range, antique butcher-block island and wet bar. A mudroom connects the kitchen to a dedicated laundry room with sink, while an additional first-floor room, currently used as an office, includes an en-suite half bath. Upstairs, the primary suite has a character entirely its own, with a masonry fireplace and marble surround, walk-in closet and light-filled sitting room. French doors open directly onto the second-story covered porch spanning the front of the home. Two additional bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath with walk-in shower. Above the garages, another bedroom with built-in bookcases offers access to a full bath and a walk-in cedar closet, creating wonderful flexibility for guests, an office or additional living space. Outside, the property becomes its own private retreat. Mature landscaping screens the pool and grounds from neighboring homes, while herringbone brick and stone patios create a series of intimate outdoor spaces. A stone terrace wraps around a small decorative pond just beyond the glass-enclosed sunroom, and landscape lighting carries throughout the property. The grounds are fully fenced in both the front and rear, and a Kohler whole-house generator adds peace of mind. There are homes with history, and then there are homes where you can still feel it. Nearly two acres of privacy, a pool, 4,491 square feet and a century of character, all in one of Southern Pines' most storied neighborhoods and only minutes from the restaurants, shops and charm of downtown. 140 Arbutus Road is unmistakably one of them.
