There are so few places on the Cape Fear where history, location, and true waterfront living converge. Originally built in the 1950s by legendary local builder Boyd Moore, 116 River Drive offers a front-row seat to the river, where cargo ships pass, sunrises hit the water and life naturally slows down to match the tide. Set on over an acre of prime riverfront, the property is tailored for anyone who truly appreciates the coastal outdoors. Step out on your private dock and enjoy an afternoon drink under the shade, but water below or drop a line in for dinner. Two Boat Lifts, a 30,000 lb and 10,000lb stand ready to cradle your maritime fleet, one switch decides the day. Will it be a day offshore or a smooth Intracoastal run for an evening dinner with friends and family? Your very own stretch of private beach and a massive, open yard where you can enjoy one of the very best views North Carolina has to offer. Inside, a complete 2024 renovation thoughtfully modernizes the home while preserving its original character. The 1,901-square-foot floor plan features an open concept kitchen with living spaces designed for effortless entertaining. Classic hardwood floors throughout, and a cozy fireplace adds to the living experience. The master bedroom retains its original floor-length windows, framing unobstructed views across the water. Properties like this are irreplaceable, meant to be enjoyed for generations, combining authentic local provenance, modern updates, and unmatched deep-water ocean access. High on an ancient dune, minutes from downtown Southport, this is a rare piece of the river. Contact us for more information.
