The Backyard

This Is Why You Buy This House.

20' × 40'

Private Saltwater Pool

Approximately 35,000 gallons

Some houses have a pool. Whitethorn has a private backyard retreat built around one.

At approximately 20 feet by 40 feet and 35,000 gallons, the in-ground saltwater pool has a scale rarely found in Raintree. A spa area, large patio and pergola give family and friends distinct places to swim, gather and spend the day outside.

The kitchen looks directly toward the pool, keeping backyard activity in view while family and friends move easily between the kitchen, patio and water. The setting is largely hidden from the street. A dedicated pool room, outdoor shower and enclosed equipment area keep the practical side of pool days close at hand without taking over the setting.

Installed Protect-A-Child removable pool safety fencing adds another layer of separation around the pool area for households with children or pets. Three raised garden beds provide ready-made space for vegetables, herbs, flowers or seasonal planting.

The Backyard Resort

Built Around Time Outside.

The pool has long been central to life at Whitethorn. At approximately 20 by 40 feet and 35,000 gallons, it gives the backyard the scale and rhythm of a private retreat — with room for swimming, gathering and unhurried summer days at home.

A vinyl pool liner installed in 2024, updated motor and timer-operated pump, Jandy saltwater system and a Dolphin robotic cleaner with app-based management reflect practical care for the centerpiece of the property.

The Home

Classic from the Curb. Surprisingly Spacious Within.

This Cape Cod-style two-story home keeps much of its substantial second floor tucked into the roofline from the front, while the rear elevation reveals the full scale of the upper level and backyard retreat.

Inside, the kitchen and dining areas establish a bright, welcoming center, with the kitchen looking directly toward the pool and backyard. White shaker cabinetry, granite countertops and stainless appliances keep the materials refined and approachable.

Across two full levels are 4 bedrooms + bonus/flex space, two and a half baths, a main-level primary suite and storage that supports the way households actually live.

Professionally Measured

An independent professional measurement completed in 2026 documents 2,496.69 square feet of heated living area across two levels: 1,478.85 square feet on the first floor and 1,017.85 square feet on the second. Total measured area is 3,573.64 square feet.

Upstairs office and flex room at 9423 Whitethorn Drive

Flexible Upstairs Rooms

One upstairs bedroom is especially well suited for a private office, guest room, study, or creative space. A separate bonus/flex room adds further flexibility.

Practical Convenience

Multiple closets, motion-activated lighting in appropriate areas, and Ring doorbell and camera equipment support everyday routines.

Upstairs Flexibility

More Upstairs Than You Expect.

The front elevation keeps the upper level visually tucked away. From the rear, the home's full second-story scale becomes clear.

The 1,017.85-square-foot upper level includes bedrooms and a separate bonus/flex room. One upstairs bedroom is especially well suited for a private office, guest room, study, or creative space. Its closet and tucked-away position add useful flexibility without changing the home's four-bedroom configuration.

Multiple closets, one attic storage area and an additional attic area add useful capacity beyond the finished rooms.

From the Owners

“We've known this house as a place where people gather — around the pool, around the kitchen, and throughout a lot of ordinary days that became great memories.

We've tried to leave it better than we found it.

Our hope is simply that the next owners make it completely their own.”

The Story of Whitethorn

A Family Legacy Since 1995

Every home has a story. This one has been part of one Charlotte family's for more than 30 years.

Whitethorn has been the backdrop for childhood, baseball seasons, wrestling tournaments, backyard summers, neighborhood friendships, celebrations, loss, growth and generations of memories.

For more than three decades, it has been the house where people gathered.

Now it's ready for its next chapter.

“Leave the world better than you found it.”
— John Spencer
