Luxurious Historic Villa - 8300ft², 7 bedrooms, 7.5 bath, on 2 acres in Village

1 mile from Pinehurst Resort + Spa + Gold Courses, this 1930s mansion has been renovated into a luxurious haven boasting 5 king suites (7 bedrooms and 9 beds in all) with large common spaces and a chef's kitchen + butlers' pantry.

The house sits back from the road on almost 2 acres. You'll feel like you're in the middle of the country while still being able to walk to town.

During the 1940s, the great-nephew of John D. Rockefeller—and his wife the grand-niece of Andrew Carnegie—occupied the house along with Nancy’s father, Andrew Carnegie II!
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, which features a fireplace. There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as an arcade/game room and barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Beware: This is NOT a luxury property. What was obviously once a beautiful classic Pinehurst mansion has been terribly neglected. The outside is covered in green mold, the yard is completely overgrown, the gazebo is also covered in mold, as is the clothes washer. House interior has extensive chipped paint and some of the furniture featured in VRBO photographs is no longer in the rooms. Just be careful before booking this one without looking at it first so you know exactly what you’re really getting.

House has changed since the pictures and is need of some updating. Shower was dirty...washcloths left hanging, lots of spiders, house was semi-clean but with the spiders and random beer caps felt dirty. Outside seating would be nice, although the outside of the house doesn't look like its been cleaned in years. We were looking forward to making this an annual trip, but we won't be back to this house!

Enjoyed the property. Very large giving each person privacy. Two areas needing attention - 1) the kitchen needs updating and 2) the back area with the grill could be better located and cleaned up. Otherwise, really good.

Pinehurst spring golf trip

Check-in was smooth and Nathan responded to our need for a replacement grill very quickly! We loved the historic home with plenty of room to spread out. We played corn-hole and sat by the fire pit in the evenings. Bring your own outdoor chairs as there are none available. The only shortage was coffee cups. Had a wonderful time and would love to stay in the Symphony House again next year!

Wonderful house helped us create a very special memory!

A large group of us (8 couples as stayover guests, with a few locals joining us for meals and celebration gatherings) stayed in mid-March 2024, a kind of college reunion - and it was an absolutely wonderful location and facility for the event! I was concerned about the logistics, as we prepared all our own meals - but the extended 2-room kitchen worked well for that, and all the dinnerware and cookware we needed was available. Large rooms for us to spend time together were spacious, comfortable, and elegantly appointed. Everyone reported that their bedrooms were comfortable and spacious (especially the master suite, which was ... well, larger than our first apartment!) The host and hostess were helpful and very good to work with, and went out of their way to help us with a couple special requests (thank you, guys!). We really do recommend this house very highly, and are looking forward to coming back ourselves!

Wonderful Stay

The Symphony House is lovely. Our group of seven especially enjoyed the spaciousness -- we could socialize together and also could have quiet relaxation when we wanted. The large dining table is great and perfect for meals and just sitting around and talking. The weather was perfect and we really enjoyed the gazebo. The house is in a quiet wooded area and has everything you need. The large butler's pantry was a bonus! Nathan was great to work with, very responsive. Great house for groups!

Golf vacation

Beautiful, large home in a lovely residential neighbourhood in easy walking distance to Pinehurst Resort. Once we arrived, host was very responsive to texts and dropped off a few brand new kitchen items that we requested. I did have to ask for the access code on our arrival day as it had not been communicated but my ask resulted in getting the code immediately. Layout of house was such that the kitchen areas were a distance from the living room so we did miss being able to have conversation with everyone. Overall a great week.

Wonderful Family Gathering

Symphony House was a beautiful, historic home which provided our family of 14 plenty of space even though the rain kept us inside much of the time. We also were able to host a larger family dinner one night, again with plenty of space for all. Nathan was very attentive to our requests even when we locked ourselves out of the house unknowingly.

Interesting older home with lots of intrigue!

We have a friend group of who loves to play golf! Every spring we meet somewhere to watch The Masters and the guys play golf and the women do all kinds of things. The Pinehurst Spa is right down the road and we took advantage of that one day! This home was perfect for all the couples because each couple had their own bath. It also has lots of open spaces, large rooms and a huge dining room table that allowed for much conversation and laughter! We all were so intrigued as to what this home would have been like back in the 1930's and who entertained there. Probably hosted lots of grand parties! There are bookcases filled with books that were interesting. A great little gazebo to sit in and the kitchen is wonderfully stocked with whatever you need! They had plenty of supplies for the bathroom and the kitchen. It is set off the road so you don't hear car noise and you can sit in almost any room and feel like you're in the middle of a forest because greenery was all around us! With it being spring that made it extra special! Don't miss this gem! The owner was very easy to work with and responded quickly to any questions we had. We will book there again!

Incredibly Beautiful House

This house had so much space, and is such a beautiful house! Everyone was in awe when they came in. We had no issues, the kitchen had everything we needed, bathrooms were well-stocked with toilet paper and soap, everything met our expectations. I can't stress enough, this is such a cool property, you won't regret booking.

This beautiful, historic home was amazing. The location was very close to the Village, grocery, golf, and eateries. Our host, Nathan, could not have been more helpful or receptive. Quiet and lovely grounds and neighborhood helped make this a perfect home for a large group.
