Southport NC Neighborhoods - Come Home to Price's Creek

It was this timeless cottage, built in historic Southport a few years ago that caught my fancy and introduced me to the simple, practical, and fanciful designs of Architect Phil Arroyas.

This home, as well as those Arroyas has designed for his dream community The Cottages of Price's Creek, look like they BELONG in Southport.

Nestled on 18 heavily wooded acres with 54 home sites just outside the City limits, Price's Creek embraces the up-and- coming return for some, to "living smaller." Appealing to those who have a thing for old houses but want more open and flexible interior spaces, the  thoughtfulness of design and quality of materials is impressive. With home sizes ranging from 1100-2200 square feet, designs boast 12' ceilings, tile and  hardwood throughout, authentic bead board, Hardie board exterior siding and copper flashing. Sidewalks meander through the neighborhood and big front porches actually lend themselves to sitting, a past time long forgotten but a real tradition in Southport. Currently there are five homes for sale with prices ranging from 389,000 to 499,000. Two have gone under contract this month.  Some of these are pre-construction prices and others are well underway and available for viewing. If this is the kind of neighborhood you've been looking for, I'd love to show it to you. Just me or you can reach me on my cell anytime ... 910.540.0551. Please visit my for plenty of community info and local links.

Vicki,

She's baaaaccck!  And with more gorgeous photos and information on Southport.  These smaller homes are gaining in popularity and are very appealing to the retiring Baby Boomers.

Mornin' Cynthia!  Yes it's been awhile. I know I miss a lot when I'm not on here on a regular basis. Part of my absence is due to the fact that I am now a Grandma! My oldest had a boy a month ago today. We have four girls so this boy thing is not in my play book but I'm learning....it's a wonderful thing.

Hope you're doing well ... anything happening in your market? Pretty quiet here. I DO love these cottages...If we ever built, this is what I would want.

Vicki,
Congratulations!  My 3 yr. old nephew stayed with us a couple of days this summer and I found out boys really are different!  But they are very sweet.  Enjoy being a Grandma and don't spoil him too much.

Hi Ginger ... I really want one of these cottages. Thanks for the comment. One of these years I'll make it back to Riverfest! Looks like a perfect weekend.
