Southport
Southport's geographical location on the Cape Fear River near the Atlantic Ocean provides some lovely coastal scenery. But the town's location also made it an ideal location for riverboat captains who settled there and incorporated it in 1805. It is largely a charming town — quaint, quiet and historic, the streets lined with ancient live oaks. Bald Head Island lies just off Southport to the east. Oak Island serves as a barrier to the ocean on the south side. On a clear day you will have an excellent view of Old Baldy, the historic lighthouse on Bald Head Island as well as the Oak Island Lighthouse.
Southport's Victorian homes date from the late 1800s and offer mostly restored, single-family residences. Houses on the waterfront are larger, and a 2,600-square-foot home may run over $1,000,000. Newer homes may cost more. Along River Drive, one can spend more than $150 million. Naturally, the farther back from the water, the lower the price. A nice finished house in Southport will start at $254,000 for 2,300 square feet. Condos average $185,000.
