Southport living at its best! This refurbished mid-century modern home has it all. Just a short walk or golf cart ride away from dining and cocktails in historic downtown Southport. Enjoy the picturesque sunrises and sunsets on your own private pier overlooking the mighty Cape Fear River. Launch your boats and go fishing or enjoy a sunset cruise - two 10,000-pound boat lifts on your private pier just out your back door.
The expansive 1.2 acre lot includes a fenced in back yard, and an elaborate fenced in garden with multiple raised beds. The property has ample room to add a swimming pool.

In the last 3 years, the home has had complete renovations to include all baths and the kitchen. Solid surface countertops, new cabinetry, and stainless-steel GE cafe appliances were added. Also included in the renovations were a bar area with built-in ice maker and mini fridge, a full house generator, and custom cabinetry to the home office. All hardwood floors were refinished and the entire exterior was freshly painted recently. The heated & cooled storage area and the mechanical room on ground level are not included in sq. footage.
