Chadsworth Cottage

Chadsworth Cottage is an exquisite mansion located on Figure Eight Island, North Carolina, built in 2005 as a private beach residence. Designed by Christine G. H. Franck in a Neoclassical style, the 4,800 square foot home showcases elements of Palladian, Federal, and Greek Revival architecture, inspired by the historic towns of Wilmington, Bath, Edenton, and New Bern. Notable features include grand paladian columns at the back of the house. The cottage has gained recognition as a show house in Period Homes magazine and has opened its doors for public tours to support St. John's Museum, making it a unique attraction for both tourists and researchers interested in architecture and local history.
