Description
Step into Southport’s rich past at the Asa Dosher House–an iconic 1895 Victorian located in the heart of the historic district at 210 W West Street. Recognized on the National Register of Historic Places, this distinguished residence blends timeless architectural detail with deep coastal Carolina heritage.Set on nearly 0.4 acres, the property features one of the largest yards in downtown Southport. The land itself dates back to the 1700s and was once owned by the granddaughter of Colonel William Rhett, renowned for capturing the gentleman pirate Stede Bonnet in the Battle of the Sandbars.Believed to have been constructed by W.T. Ottoway, the same builder behind the historic Robert Ruark Inn, the Asa Dosher House showcases the enduring craftsmanship and elegant character of Southport’s Victorian-era homes. The 4-bedroom, 2-bath main residence retains its original charm with tall ceilings, intricate woodwork, and the distinctive Southport bow window trim.An oversized detached garage includes a 2-bedroom, 2-bath guest apartment above with a private entrance and exterior lift, perfect for extended family, rental income, or additional guest space. Altogether, the property offers approximately 3,500 square feet of finished living space.Rich in history and perfectly positioned just blocks from the waterfront, shops, and restaurants, this is a rare opportunity to own a true piece of Southport’s storied past–complete with the documentation and designation to prove it.
