This is why so many people fall in love with Southport. Set on an extraordinary .83-acre parcel in the heart of the Village, this circa 1874 residence captures the charm, character, and lifestyle that have made Southport one of New England's most treasured coastal communities. Approached by a long drive and set well back from Harbor Road, the home enjoys a level of privacy rarely found in the Village. Hidden from the road, it offers a sense of seclusion that is increasingly difficult to find. Rich with period details and timeless architectural character, the 5 bedroom, 4 full and 1 half bath home sits at one of the highest points on Harbor Road, where cooling summer breezes are a welcome feature. The property also includes a classic antique barn, pool, pool house, attached one-car garage, and detached two-car garage, creating a setting ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. While the home presents an exceptional opportunity for renovation and enhancement, its greatest assets cannot be replicated: its setting, scale, history, and location. For the next steward, it offers the chance to reimagine a treasured Southport property while preserving its authenticity and charm. Enjoy a quintessential Southport lifestyle with easy access to the Village, train station, Pequot Yacht Club, and the soon-to-open Southport General Store and Rose Hill Kitchen. Last offered for sale in 1989, opportunities like this rarely come to market. A true Southport gem ready for its next chapter
