Southport, NC Real Estate

Southport, NC Homes for Sale

Founded in 1792 as Smithville, Southport got its name in 1889 as a result of a campaign to build itself into a major port city. This may soon become a reality for Southport. A 600 acre parcel of land has been acquired and approved for the proposed ""North Carolina International Port"". According to surveys conducted on property, Southport real estate in North Carolina has been adjudged one of the best places for investments.

The historic town, with many restored and architecturally attractive houses, is the home of the state's official annual NC Fourth of July Festival. Historic downtown is lined with antique shops, specialty shops, restaurants, and a public waterfront park. Southport is ranked by both Rand McNally and Kiplinger as one of the most desirable places in the United States to retire to. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this deep water seaside town has deep roots in the Civil War and once was a hide-out for pirates such as Blackbeard and Stead Bonnet. Southport is located at the entrance of the Cape Fear River.

Compared to the overall trend in real estate prices in the entire state of North Carolina, properties at Southport real estate can be acquired at a much lesser price than the same real estate elsewhere. The climate is one of the main reasons why people are choosing to live in Coastal North Carolina.
