**Recent updates include a NEW roof, gutters, flashing, chimney caps, and HVAC system.** Tucked into the sought-after Weymouth Heights neighborhood, this timeless mid-century brick ranch offers a rare opportunity to create something truly special on a beautifully private 0.89-acre lot. Surrounded by mature trees and established landscaping, the setting feels serene and tucked away--yet you're just minutes from the charm of downtown Southern Pines with its local shops, restaurants, and coffee spots. Inside, the home showcases classic architectural elements of its era, including vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, expansive windows that bring the outdoors in, and original hardwood floors throughout much of the main living areas. Two oversized fireplaces - one wood-burning (currently used) and one gas - add to the home's warmth and character, while multiple spacious living areas, each with its own distinct feel offer flexibility for entertaining, relaxing, or reimagining the space to fit your vision. The layout features three generously sized bedrooms, and 3 full bathrooms. The kitchen and baths retain their original charm, including classic tile finishes, offering character today with the potential for future customization if desired. This property blends architectural charm with untapped potential. For the buyer who appreciates design, location, and the chance to make a home their own, this is a standout opportunity in one of Southern Pines' most desirable areas.
