Historic Charm Meets Southern Hospitality - The Evans-McKenzie House, Circa 1890- Step back in time and embrace the heart of Southport in this lovingly preserved gem--The Evans-McKenzie House, featured in The Architecture of Southport by Carl Lounsbury. Built around 1890, this classic Southern home blends historic charm with modern comfort, offering three bedrooms, two baths, and an inviting lifestyle just blocks from the waterfront. Original details abound--from heart pine floors and beadboard ceilings to the clawfoot tub, double parlors, two fireplaces, and the vintage door knobs with the original owners initials. Enjoy morning coffee on the screened side porch or wave to neighbors from the gracious front porch--a hallmark of Southport living. Nestled on nearly a quarter-acre lot, the property boasts beautiful shade trees, a fully fenced backyard (carefully installed to protect the majestic live oaks), and plenty of space for gardening or entertaining. Located just steps from Franklin Park and a short stroll to the waterfront, this home offers both privacy and community in a picturesque neighborhood where ''everybody calls you by your name.''
