Description
Built in 1891, the Newton-McKeithan Historic Home sits in the heart of downtown Southport, just 2½ blocks from the Cape Fear River and Riverfront Park. This 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom residence offers 1,550 sq.ft. of heated living space and was fully renovated by Green Harmony Builders in 2015-2016. All major systems were updated—including plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and a metal roof—while preserving the home's original charm. A 500 sq.ft. addition features antique heart pine floors that complement the original heart pine throughout the home. The covered front porch opens to a beautifully restored interior with a stained glass front door, antique beadboard ceilings, detailed molding, Craftsman-style window casings, and plantation shutters. The living room centers around a gas log fireplace, and the custom kitchen is outfitted with a Wolf gas range and Thermador refrigerator. Natural gas is currently being installed along Lord Street. A built-in bench and shelving add character to the dining room. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet, double vanity, clawfoot tub, water closet, and private access to the screened porch. A transom window above the French doors fills the primary bedroom with natural light. Both bathrooms feature tile showers and beadboard paneling. The screened porch, with tongue-and-groove ceilings and Bermuda shutters, overlooks a lush backyard oasis. An outdoor stone kitchen with paver patio (Green Egg grill does not convey), a wired shed/workshop, whole-house generator, and extensive landscaping complete the property. This historic gem offers a rare blend of preserved craftsmanship and modern convenience—all just steps from Southport's shopping, dining, and waterfront.
