About this home

A lot of people visit Southport. A few recognize it as something special. The difference has nothing to do with the drive down Highway 211, or the moment the live oaks close in over the road, or even the first time the Cape Fear River opens up wide and silver at the end of Howe Street. It's something quieter. It's the realization, somewhere between the smell of exquisite dining and the sound of a guitar carrying across Franklin Square, on a Thursday afternoon, that this is the place. 971 Softwind Way sits at the center of that feeling, a REVERSED FLOOR PLAN home in The Hammocks at Southport where the kitchen, great room, and primary suite occupy the top floor, positioned to catch the breeze and the light the way a home in Southport should. The covered upper porch, with its connected gas grill and Sonos speakers, is where the evening begins. Inside, a vented natural gas fireplace anchors a coffered-ceiling great room, and a navy shiplap wet bar with a SubZero wine chiller runs along one wall. The kitchen was built for the kind of cooking this town inspires, with a Carrara marble island and countertops, a glass subway-tile backsplash, soft-close cabinetry, and a dual-fuel range. The primary suite occupies its own wing on this level, featuring a spa-caliber bath, a frameless glass walk-in shower, a double vanity, and a custom walk-in closet with washer and dryer. Downstairs, three additional bedrooms, a full bath, a second laundry closet, and a flexible sitting room create space for however life arranges itself. Outside, a covered lower patio with a crafted eyebrow detail above the sliding glass door and a fenced backyard with new sod complete the picture. The two-car garage carries epoxy floors and a wash sink, the home is pre-wired for a whole-house generator, and the HOA welcomes private golf carts, which matters when downtown is less than a mile away. Because downtown is the point. It's the Fourth of July festival that turns Southport into the center of the state for one week every year. It's the Wooden Boat Show, the King Mackerel Tournament, and the Up Your Arts Plein Air Festival. It's the Johnson and Wales-trained kitchen at Mr. P's and the global pantry at Ports of Call. It's live music drifting out of The Mullet and American Fish. It's the friends you run into on the corner by the harbor and end up talking to for forty minutes. It's the way a small town builds a life around you without you noticing, until one day you realize the people you raised a glass with on a Tuesday are the same ones who know your whole story, and you know theirs. If you know Southport, you already know why this one matters. If you don't, you will understand exactly why the moment you arrive. Built in 2019. 2,530 heated square feet. Four bedrooms, three baths.
