This beautifully crafted single-story residence exemplifies timeless design, elevated finishes, and thoughtful functionality—all just moments from the charming shops, dining, and waterfront of downtown Southport, NC.
A true and elegant foyer, complete with a full coat closet, creates a refined sense of arrival and enhanced privacy—an increasingly rare feature in coastal homes. Inside, the living space is rich with custom trim work, including a coffered ceiling in the living room, crown moulding, tall wainscoting, and beautifully cased windows and doors. Built-in cabinetry and shelving frame the fireplace, blending warmth with tailored sophistication.
Designed for both comfort and efficiency, the home features a highly desirable 2-zone HVAC system with programmable thermostats, allowing independent climate control across living and sleeping areas—an exceptional upgrade that enhances year-round comfort, energy efficiency, and overall livability. Plantation shutters throughout further contribute to light control, interior comfort, and a clean coastal aesthetic.
The heart of the home is the thoughtfully designed kitchen, anchored by an oversized 4' x 9' single-level island, ideal for entertaining and everyday living. A generously sized, fully functioning laundry room offers exceptional storage and convenience.
The outdoor living spaces are equally refined, with a private backyard retreat featuring a large screened porch with tiled flooring, an on-grade patio, and mature shrubs and trees providing abundant privacy. Black metal fencing and manicured Zoysia sod, supported by a B-hyve programmable irrigation system, complete this beautifully maintained outdoor space.
This home offers an exceptional blend of craftsmanship, comfort-driven upgrades, and location within The Hammocks, a newer community recognized for the integrity of its construction, durability of materials, and a caliber of features and finishes that distinguish it from typical new construction.
