Property details

Steps from Broad Street! Located in the heart of the downtown, The Shire 225 is the perfect retreat for families or traveling professionals looking to be in a lively and walkable area. Our multi-family property consists of four private units situated under the pines. Originally built in the 1900's, the home has been lovingly renovated by its current owners. We welcome you to experience what life in Southern Pines is all about. Unit C, nicknamed 'Slate', is a two-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment located on the back of the main residence and accessible by a flight of stairs. The two bedrooms, one with a queen bed and the other with a king, are thoughtfully designed for relaxation, complete with plush bedding, sound machines, ample hangers and luggage racks for ease of traveling. The desk in the second bedroom is perfectly set up for remote work, with a comfortable chair, ample lighting, and a quiet, focused atmosphere.

Neighborhood Overview: Downtown Southern Pines is full of many restaurants and boutiques for exploring. You are sure to love the convenience of being a few steps from it all. When we say close to it all, we mean it!

This was our second time staying in The Shire. The unit is in a great location, functional and adorable. Unfortunately this stay was not as restful as the first (and main reason we repeated). Ultimately is a great unit - my only suggestion to future visitors and the host is to pre-align temperature control expectations - for us this time was just not ideal.

We really enjoyed Southern Pines, The Slate at The Shire is extremely convenient to walk to town, our car stayed parked the entire time. We came to visit Casino Guitars and wound up enjoying everything the town had to offer. The apartment is very clean and perfect for us. We enjoyed all the modern amenities. We would definitely stay here again.
