Picture this: morning coffee on the widow's watch, the Atlantic stretching out to one side, the Sound and the ICW shimmering on the other. Those views are the heart of this home, and because public access sits right beside you, the sightlines to both the ocean and the Sound stay open. Nothing's getting built to take them away. You'll find this beauty on the coveted south end of Topsail Beach, one block to the ocean and one block to the Sound. Sunrise beach walks and sunset boat rides, both within steps of your door. Inside, the reverse floor plan does exactly what it should, lifting the living space up to capture the light, the breezes, and those water views. Three bedrooms, two and a half baths, and room to breathe. The home has been thoughtfully cared for. New Pella 250 Series windows and doors. New Alside Coventry siding on the ocean-facing wall and carport, with the original siding carefully removed, rotten sheathing repaired where needed, and reinstalled elsewhere. Updated flashing beneath the siding, copper drip caps above the new openings, and crisp Miratec black trim framing it all. The soffit wears two fresh coats of white, the roof and soffit were replaced at the end of 2018, and the whole house has been power washed and refreshed. There's even a new bookcase waiting at the top of the stairs. Outside, life is easy. An outdoor shower to rinse off the salt, a fenced dog yard for the four-legged crew, a handy shed, and parking for ten, four of them covered, with plenty of space for boats, golf carts, and every beach toy you own. Septic was recently pumped, so that's handled too. This home rents beautifully in summer and stays quiet the rest of the year, making it ideal for second-home owners and anyone who's fallen for Topsail Beach. Come imagine your mornings and evenings next to the ocean. Experience the best of coastal living in this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath beach home ideally located on the highly desirable south end of Topsail Beach.
