  • Gloria W.
    "Great area close to shopping centers & several restaurants. Nice wide beaches with good stable dunes to protect homes."
  • O2bnroma
    "We own a vacation home in Southridge and live there all summer. Southridge is a quiet community just 1/4 mile from the ocean, but on the western side of the bypass, so at least $100,000 cheaper than comparable homes on the eastern side. Lots in the newer section are 1/2 acre, so many people in those homes have private pools. Lots in the older sections are too small for pools. Most of the owners we have met are mid-50's or older; some are full-time residents, some are seasonal. Many owners who currently have their homes in a rental program intend to turn them into full-time or seasonal homes for themselves within a few years. This gives the community a neighborly, stable feel as compared to some where nearly all the homes are rentals. In the heart of Nags Head, the ocean beaches are a very short drive away, while the soundside beach behind Jockey's Ridge is within walking distance. Shopping, the Y (with excellent exercise facilities), restaurants, and the hospital are all very close, yet the community has a quiet, secluded feel to it. We love it and are so glad we chose to build here."
