About Southport's Prices Creek

With the local real estate market in Southport showing signs of life, it’s time to catch up on what’s happening in Price’s Creek, a unique and colorful neighborhood just a bike ride away from Downtown Southport.

While the Brunswick County real estate market remains soft, and many now-labeled “ghost developments” sit in limbo, the Cottages of Price’s Creek now have a real eye for the future. A renewed interest is burgeoning and visible, bringing the dreams of current and future owners peace of mind,  knowing that the vision of its original developer and architect is alive and well.

All of the unsold lots in Price’s Creek are now owned by a local bank and they are in the beginning stages of putting some lot/home packages together in the 300s. They will also be releasing a small number of lots that should hit the market sometime this Fall. Thanks to diligent efforts by the bank, the entrances and common areas have been spruced up, the pool and clubhouse have been completed and all signs are positive and moving forward.

If you have questions about Price’s Creek, please don’t hesitate to call me at 910 540 0551, or send me an email. I will do my best to answer or find the answer you are looking for.

In the mean time, here are a few pictures that I took over the summer that show just what a beautiful and unique community it really is. As a disclosure, I am a local Buyer’s Agent and have no official association with the Price’s Creek neighborhood, but I have loved it from the start and am excited again to see that it is once again a viable option for folks looking to buy in the Southport area.

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 I took of an on-site billboard and 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 1100-2200 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.

Cottage living...more than a trend...a concept that just makes sense
