southport nc homes: Indigo Plantation - Southport NC Waterway Community - 02/22/11 10:57 AM
I have been highlighting my best-loved Southport area the communities for three or four years now. Indigo Plantation has always been a favorite of mine and I’m happy to finally get around to featuring one of the very best neighborhoods Southport has to offer. For years, Indigo Plantation was the departure location for Bald Head Island’s mainland ferry operation. Its top-notch marina facilities and easy access to the Intracoastal Waterway, the Cape Fear River and beyond, are trumped by its quiet in-town location just a 5 minute bike ride to downtown Southport. Originally developed by Bald Head Island Ltd, the preservation … (2 comments)

southport nc homes: How Things are Looking - Nationally vs Locally - 01/22/10 12:40 AM

The National Association of Realtors recently released the 2009 Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers.  NAR mailed an eight-page questionnaire in July 2009 to a national sample of 120,038 home buyers and sellers who purchased their homes between July 2008 and June 2009 and were based on deed transfers and other public records.

Tucked away in a quiet neighborhood, less than a half mile from Downtown Southport, Harbor Oaks offers its residents quiet tree-lined streets, neo-traditional Southern architecture, and relaxed coastal living.

A well-established neighborhood with just under 100 home sites, Harbor Oaks is well-located a half mile from downtown … (8 comments)

southport nc homes: Southport NC - Smithville Woods - They'll Leave the Light on for Ya! - 07/12/08 10:17 AM
 
On the outskirts of town, Smithville Woods is a my top destination pick if you are planning to relocate to Southport and are looking for a family-friendly neighborhood with lots of kids. It's the kind of place I dreamed about growing up in. While living and raising our kids in Downtown Southport, I've always felt like they had the best of all worlds. Learning to ride their bikes on the sidewalk, playing ball in the street, walking down to the river every day to crab and pick up treasures, the freedom of walking on their own to the candy … (4 comments)
