A rare opportunity to own a beautifully updated coastal retreat paired with one of the most coveted amenities in Southport living: a deeded deep-water boat slip with a brand-new dock and existing 10,000-lb boat lift scheduled for completion in late 2026 on a protected tributary just off the Cape Fear River. Located in the highly desirable Winding Creek community, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath home delivers the coastal lifestyle buyers dream about. Inside, soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, and a spacious open floor plan create an airy, welcoming atmosphere designed for both relaxed everyday living and effortless entertaining. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining and living areas, creating the perfect gathering space after a day on the water. The spacious primary suite offers a private retreat with an en-suite bath, while three additional bedrooms and three full bathrooms provide flexibility for guests, family, or a dedicated home office. Step outside to your own private backyard oasis featuring a sparkling pool, mature landscaping, and inviting outdoor living spaces designed for enjoying coastal Carolina evenings. Just around the corner, the property's deeded boat slip is undergoing a complete rebuild, including an entirely new dock system and existing 10,000-lb lift -- a significant value-add rarely found in today's market. Winding Creek residents also enjoy access to the neighborhood boat launch, providing quick access to the Intracoastal Waterway, Cape Fear River, waterfront dining, offshore fishing, and some of the best boating on the North Carolina coast. Located only minutes from historic downtown Southport, you'll enjoy easy access to award-winning restaurants, waterfront shops, golf, beaches, and the timeless charm that has made Southport one of the Southeast's most sought-after coastal destinations. Properties offering this combination of a fully rebuilt deeded deep-water slip, boating access, pool, spacious floor plan, and premier location are exceptionally rare. This is more than a home -- it's a true coastal lifestyle investment.
