Map & Owner's Profile
The Blue House is Easy to Find and Hard to Leave!
Year Purchased: 2003
Why the Owner Chose North Topsail Beach
A close friend and business partner and I visited here after much coaxing from some friends that had moved here. After that, the choice to purchase a vacation home in North Topsail Beach, NC, was easy. Up until 2008, we both lived in Massachusetts all our lives and dreamed of having a home on the beach. After several trips to this beautiful area, I just couldn't bear facing another New England winter. So, I now live just a short drive from 'The Blue House' and I am here to stay!
The Unique Benefits at this House
It is a beautiful, clean, and tranquil beach ---and the dolphins are regular visitors. I like to scuba dive and this area has some of the best diving on the East Coast. The privacy here is unlike that of more advertised vacation spots, like Myrtle Beach or the Outer Banks.
Owner's Map of North Topsail Beach
My business partner and I have known each other for 18 years. Frank is the manager of an autobody shop in Massachusetts where he has worked for 20 years. I (Terri) have been in the real estate appraisal business for 9 years and have a background in property management. Frank has one daughter and two wonderful mutts rescued from the streets of Puerto Rico and adopted through the Sterling Animal Shelter. I have one sweetheart of a little Pomeranian that I adopted from a family member that could not care for her. All of the four-legged family members have enjoyed time at "The Blue House" and join us in welcoming all of our guests.

Thank you for a lovely long weekend. We wish we could've stayed longer. It was truly one of the most relaxing mini vacations ever! Not only was the view stupendous, the home, warm & inviting, but the company made it very special. We're looking forward to returning here. ----To my guests past and future: Yes, this one is from my Mom and Step-Dad. The first of my family to come from the northeast to share a vacation here at NTB. The preceding comments were taken directly from my guest book here at 'The Blue House'. Thank you all for your wonderful comments. Happy Thanksgiving! And I hope to see you all next year!!

We had a fantastic stay! Our first trip to Topsail & we all love it. The "no name" storm was a little scary & we decided it's as close to a hurricane as we want to get! The house is nice and we enjoyed our stay.

Our family consisted of Grammy & grand daughters & daughter & son-in-law. We all had a great time. The weather was perfect. We at so much seafood, we though we would burst. We will be back hopefully next year. If not, then the year after. Thank you for making your 'Blue House" available for us. We loved staying here.

We had a great week at 'The Blue House'! The weather was awesome. Enjoyed time with the family and found a lot of nice shells, did some fishing, some swimming, and a lot of relaxing. Oh yeah --and don't forget the dog puzzle (downstairs in the bedroom with the bunk beds). You've got to try it. What a challenge! We all worked on it throughout the week. And the end result was a beautiful puzzle. We hated to take it apart. Thanks for the great summer vacation!! See you next year!

We had a very fun, relaxing week. Weather was a lot better than home. We actually saw sunshine. Everybody loved the beach and all the views. Your home is very comfortable. Most definitely want to return. Thanks for sharing.

This was the first time we've (mother & daughter) rented this (home) and couldn't have been more pleased. It's very spacious, private, and you can't get better views. Excellent access for inlet fishing. No big fish tales to tell this year, but we're already talking about next year with my dad & boyfriend. Thank you for making this a very memorable "girls' week". See you next year!!
