Welcome to the Amanda Foley Cottage - circa 1891 - where historic charm meets modern elegance. Located in the heart of historic downtown Southport, this home offers unparalleled access to the town's finest dining, shopping, museums, parks, cultural attractions, and waterfront activity along the Cape Fear River. Spanning 2604 sq. ft., this meticulously crafted home was completely renovated down to the studs and subfloors in 2004 and has Hardie board siding & Trex-style composite decking on front porch. Upon entering, you are greeted with the expansive living areas that have 10' ceilings - living room; dining room; spacious kitchen with an island, abundance of cabinets for storage, and an informal dining area; office; and a studio/sunroom with porch access - all adorned with elegant finishes. The flooring is artisan rosewood, tile, and carpet. The cabinets, chair rails, and all other trim were custom built and installed. A wraparound front porch beckons you to relax and soak in the idyllic surroundings with sweeping live oaks and salubrious breezes found in this coastal Southern town. Retreat to the serene primary suite, complete with a luxurious ensuite bathroom and ample closet space. Two additional bedrooms and an additional bath offer versatility for guests. The landscaped backyard provides a tranquil oasis for outdoor gatherings. There is even a 22kW Generac generator for when emergency power is needed, generous storage in partially floored attic that has pull down stairs and an attic lift system, water well and pump with irrigation, black metal fenced in yard, alarm system, security lights, gas logs in the unique marble fireplace, and new 30 year shingles and HVAC unit/duct work replaced in 2024. (A full list of all renovations/updates are available n the MLS documents.) This home has been owned by the same family since 1971. Let's make this your new home today so you can start enjoying living and making your memories in beautiful historic Southport
