Welcome to the historic Dowd Cabin, circa 1815, a remarkable landmark with deep roots in Moore County history. Originally constructed in the early 19th century, the cabin was carefully dismantled and relocated to its current setting in the 1980s by former North Carolina Senator Harris Blake. Meticulously reassembled, it has served as an office ever since, preserving its character while offering modern functionality. Nestled among mature trees and overlooking a tranquil pond teeming with fish and turtles, this one-of-a-kind property offers a setting that is both peaceful and inspiring. The gentle sounds of nature and picturesque water views create an atmosphere that feels worlds away, yet remains conveniently located in the heart of the Pinehurst area. Whether envisioned as a boutique coffee shop, professional office, creative studio, or personal retreat, the Dowd Cabin provides endless possibilities. The serene waterfront setting invites visitors to slow down, gather, work, or simply reflect. Rarely does an opportunity arise to own a property that combines such rich history, distinctive character, and an idyllic setting. The Dowd Cabin is more than a building--it is a timeless destination ready for its next chapter. Sale includes Dowd Circle, a private road and parking area.
