**Charming Coastal Cottage in the Heart of Southport**
Welcome to your dream retreat just a short stroll from Historic Downtown Southport's vibrant restaurants, quaint shops, and picturesque waterfront! This beautifully restored 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom cottage perfectly blends timeless charm like original T&G ceilings, with many modern updates.
Step onto the brand-new covered front porch and breathe in the salt air from the ocean breezes, or relax on the new sun deck in your freshly fenced backyard oasis. Dressed in cheerful sun kissed siding with shake accents, this home radiates coastal charm.
Inside, every inch has been thoughtfully reimagined—**all-new electrical, plumbing, insulation, drywall**, and a **new HVAC system** ensure peace of mind for years to come. The stylish kitchen features **White Ice quartz countertops, Delfino Ocean Reserve tile backsplash, solid wood soft-close cabinetry,** and **sleek stainless appliances**, including a **counter-depth French Door fridge** and a **pantry cabinet** for ample storage.
The bathroom is a spa-like escape with an **oversized tiled walk-in shower**, sitting bench, and inset shelf. Flooring includes **luxurious Caramel Macchiato LVP throughout** and **durable Oyster LVT** in the bathroom and laundry.
Fresh **Sherwin-Williams Frosty White paint**, ceiling fans in all living spaces, and thoughtful details throughout make this home feel brand new.
**Fully permitted, up to code, and truly move-in ready**—this is your low-maintenance escape or full-time haven. While the City of Southport requires 30-day minimum leases, this gem offers endless potential for seasonal stays or long-term living.
**No detail overlooked, no expense spared—come experience the best of coastal cottage living!**
