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.
Above is a photo taken of an on-site billboard. The individual pictures are not mine.
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 110
0-2200 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 email me or you can reach me on my cell anytime ... 910.540.0551. Please visit my Southport Blog for plenty of community info and local links.
Cottage living...more than a trend...a concept that just makes sense
