Fall in love with the charm, character, and timeless appeal of this historic Southport cottage! Proudly recognized with a Southport Historic Society plaque, this special property offers the opportunity to own a piece of Southport's rich heritage while enjoying the relaxed coastal lifestyle that makes this waterfront town so beloved.

Mature landscaping and classic coastal character create a welcoming first impression, while the home's distinctive personality sets it apart from the ordinary.
Inside, two spacious bedrooms and the convenience of two full bathrooms make this traditional cottage both charming and practical. The vintage kitchen invites thoughts of homemade cookies, family recipes, while the generous main living area offers room to bring everyone together around the table. A versatile rear mudroom/laundry area with backyard access provides additional possibilities for a home office, hobby space, or casual retreat.
Plus many of the latest 21st century updates have been thought of including natural gas, newer appliances, on demand hot water heater, and a golf cart parking pad.
The backyard is where coastal living truly shines! Enjoy a private, fully fenced setting with a storage building, a discreetly tucked-away outdoor shower, and a patio ready for entertaining beneath the glow of string lights. Whether hosting friends, enjoying a quiet evening outdoors, or simply savoring your own private retreat, this inviting space offers plenty of ways to enjoy yourself under the Carolina blue sky.
Located in historic Southport, just a very short distance from the Cape Fear River, yacht basin, downtown restaurants, boutique shops, and galleries, this distinctive home puts the charm of the town within easy reach.
Historic character. Inviting outdoor spaces. A lifestyle all its own. Whether you envision a full-time residence, a coastal getaway, or a place to create lasting memories, the Westcott-Dosher House is an opportunity to make Southport's history part of your own story....
