125 Brookline Dr, Pinehurst, NC 28374

Beautifully situated on a five acre estate lot located in the Country Club of North Carolina, 125 Brookline Drive has a premier golf front location on the par five ninth hole of the prestigious Cardinal Course. Custom built in 1995 by Alex Bowness, this home encompasses approximately 7,000 square feet of living space with a focus on craftsmanship, design, quality materials, both open and formal spaces, warmth, light, flow, unique detail and spaciousness. This is truly a one of a kind property and an impressive offering. The approach to 125 Brookline is marked by a lighted stone entry, circular drive, and a landscape design that is inclusive of crepe myrtles, magnolias, azaleas, and other flowering trees and plants. The flagstone walk blends with the landscape, provides balance and interest to the new roof (2017) and stone siding and leads to an extraordinary entry with a cathedral ceiling and custom crafted entry door and window panels. The materials and textures of the exterior are utilized in the interior portions of the home. The Foyer's sixteen foot cathedral ceiling is again marked by the warmth of wood, beams, and a visual flow to the Great Room. The Foyer has hardwood floors and stone accents and the front door and its unique glass panels provide light and stateliness. The Living Room is adjacent to the Foyer and again has the repeating detail of stone work. A stone archway leads from the Foyer into the Living Room. The Living Room is a small sitting room for conversation or reading. The Main Living Area of the house is the Great Room with high cathedral ash ceilings, hardwood floors, stone fireplace with raised hearth, and custom cabinetry on each side of the fireplace. Opening the custom cabinets reveals an entertainment center on one side and a wet bar on the other. The Kitchen opens to the Great Room and the hardwood floors provide the flow from one room to the other. The Kitchen is a large working kitchen marked by tray ceilings with rich wood detail, breakfast room, center island with cook top, breakfast bar, granite counters, designer appliances, and custom cabinetry with a curio and built in desk. This is a split bedroom plan. Down the hall from the Formal Dining Room is a Carolina Room with access to a screened back porch, deck, and flagstone patio with a built in grill accentuated by custom stone work. The lower guest suite is on the main level and has its own private bath. The Laundry Room is also in this wing of the house and has custom cabinetry and shelving, a tiled area for hanging and drying wet clothes, and lots of storage. The garage entry is through the Laundry Room and there is a separate utility room with additional storage. There is a generator in the event of a power outage. The Master Suite, Powder Room, Fitness Center, and Library/Office are located in the opposite wing. The Master Suite consists of the Master Bedroom with tray ceiling and sliders to the deck, a his and her walk in closet, linen closet, medicine closet, separate toilet area, and Master Bath with double sinks, whirlpool tub, marble floors, glass block features at the tub and shower, and large walk in shower. Across from the Master Suite is a Fitness Room with mirrored wall and adequate space for most work out equipment. The Library/Office is a remarkable room located at the end of this wing offering privacy and much visual interest. The room is surrounded by custom cabinetry providing storage for books, work stations, hidden file cabinets, yet is large enough to offer a seating area and a large desk if desired. While the tray ceiling provides uniqueness and interest, there are ample windows to provide sunlight and to have views of the outdoors. This is an exceptional property with an emphasis on detail and craftsmanship. Please call today to schedule your showing.
