The Enchanted Escape feels like discovering a place someone forgot to tell everyone else about. Tucked on a private acre steps from Pinehurst Village, 3 distinct residences surround a 51-foot heated pool, putting green, hot tub and fire pit. Beyond the backyard, more than a century of character unfolds through stained glass, reclaimed doors, old stone and collected treasures. It’s private, wonderfully quirky and full of little details that keep making people say, “Wait...come look at this.”

🏡 Three Houses. One Stay.

This is the kind of place where everyone keeps ending up together. Breakfast stretches around the table, somebody starts a putting competition, cards come out on the screened porch and one more dip in the pool turns into another hour outside. The grill gets going, wet towels hang over chairs and someone insists they're getting in one last time. As the sun drops, the string lights come on, drinks migrate toward the hot tub and eventually everyone finds their way to the fire. Then, when the day is finally done, 3 separate homes give everyone their own space to settle in before waking up and doing it all over again.

🏠 A Little Bit Enchanted

Arcadia Cottage has been standing since 1917, and more than a century of character comes with it. Original floors have stories to tell, old windows and doors have their own personalities, and reclaimed church doors, salvaged stained glass, stone, vintage pieces and collected treasures add another layer everywhere you look. Shake Cottage brings soaring tobacco-barn rafters into the mix, while the Stone Pool House feels like its own little hideaway. Things here are wonderfully quirky, beautifully imperfect and full of history. There always seems to be one more detail that makes someone say, “Wait...come look at this.”

Hi, I'm Beata. Some places have a personality of their own, and Enchanted Escape has always felt that way to me. I've personally designed and managed it since 2021, preserving all the wonderfully quirky details while creating a place where people genuinely love being together.
