About this home
**NOW OFFERING A SELLER-PAID 2/1 RATE BUYDOWN** plus a **$2,500 lender credit** when financing through Rita Hairston with CrossCountry Mortgage, making this exceptional Downtown Southern Pines property even more affordable. 260 N Ridge Street is a well-maintained **1920 Dutch Colonial Revival**, thoughtfully expanded by Butler Constructs while preserving its original scale and character. The main floor flows naturally between a living room with a vented gas fireplace, separate dining room, spacious family room, and a cook's eat-in kitchen designed by ASID designer Denis McCullough, featuring eco-friendly countertops and Bosch appliances that remain with the home. A private main-floor office, newer mud/laundry room, and a full bath complete the 1,431-square-foot main level. Upstairs, four bedrooms, a bonus office nook, and a full bath offer peaceful, private space true to the home's 1920 character. A sketch is available illustrating the option to add a primary suite. Outside, a fully fenced patio and garden provide an exceptional, private space for entertaining, while the oversized detached garage offers flexibility as a workshop, gym, studio, or garage. The Town of Southern Pines has confirmed this corner lot can be split into **two additional buildable lots**--a rare, documented opportunity for a family compound, spec build, or income-producing investment in the heart of Downtown Southern Pines, just steps from shops and restaurants. Whether you are drawn to the character of the home, the private outdoor living, the confirmed development potential, or all three, this is a rare opportunity in Downtown Southern Pines. A recent home inspection is available, and all minor repairs have been completed.
