About this property
Soundfront Retreat w/ Pool · Sunset Views
Summary:
Step onto the balcony as the sound turns gold and the whole day exhales. Three king suites, a private pool just steps away, and room for eight who came to do nothing but this. Tomorrow the sand is a five-minute walk down 11th Ave. Tonight it's just you, the water, and a sky that won't quit showing off. This waterfront retreat isn't the backdrop to your trip — it's the reason you'll be rebooking before you even check out.
This sound-front home was built for the kind of vacation where nobody wants to leave the deck. Three bedrooms and three baths sleep up to 8 across two full living levels, with unobstructed water views from nearly every window and a walk down 11th Ave to the actual beach in about five minutes — wagon provided, because you'll want it for the coolers.
✦ Primary Upstairs King Suite — king bed, private balcony access, water views, smart TV, ceiling fan. Wake up, open the slider, and there's the sound.
✦ Second Upstairs King Bedroom — king bed, water views, its own quiet corner of the house.
✦ Lower-Level King Bedroom — king bed, en-suite bath, water view, smart TV, direct deck access.
✦ Basement Sleeping Area — queen bed plus a twin-over-twin bunk, sofa, smart TV, mini fridge. Where the kids camp out and never want to come upstairs.
Two separate living areas mean nobody has to agree on a TV show. Upstairs, the back living room opens onto a deck with sweeping water views — morning coffee here is non-negotiable. Downstairs, a second living room with a smart TV and a deep, cushion-everywhere couch is where the group lands after a full day at the beach or pool.
The kitchen is the showpiece: a granite island with seating for four, high-end appliances against rich wood cabinetry, a built-in oven, dishwasher, and a full run of pots and pans. The dining nook seats four more between built-in bookshelves and a wall of windows.
Beach days are covered before you unpack — umbrellas, chairs, boogie boards, and a cooler are provided, plus a resort-style community pool steps from the door. In-unit washer/dryer, fast Wi-Fi, central air, board games, and books round out a house that's ready for a full week, not just a weekend.
Need more room? Ask about renting the two-bedroom home next door for larger multi-family trips.
Multigenerational families — three private king suites plus a kids' bunk room mean grandparents get quiet and the little ones get their own hideout.
Groups of friends splitting a beach week — two living rooms and a kitchen island built for a crowd.
Anglers and water-lovers — a private community pier and gazebo sit steps from the door, with the Jolly Roger fishing pier a short drive away.
Families with young kids — the calm sound, seasonal pool, and five-minute beach walk (wagon included) mean nap schedules survive.
Remote workers tacking on extra days — fast Wi-Fi and a dedicated workspace mean you can log off at 5 and be on the deck by 5:01.

Guest Access:
You'll have the entire house to yourselves — both living areas, all three bedrooms, the kitchen, and the decks. Check-in is self-service with a smart lock, so there's no coordinating a key handoff around traffic or flight delays. The community pool, private pier, and gazebo are open to guests seasonally, Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend; the HOA sets hours outside that window.
The Neighborhood:
You're on the sound side of North Topsail Beach, part of Topsail Island's 26 miles of quiet, undeveloped shoreline — no boardwalk, no high-rises, just dunes and a slower pace. Beach access is a five-minute walk down 11th Ave.
• Community pool, private pier & gazebo — on-site, seasonal Memorial Day–Labor Day
• Jolly Roger Pier — fishing pier and inn, ~10 min
• Rodney Knowles Park — sound-side deck, picnic area, ~10 min
• Richard C. Peters Park — playground, nature trail, two fishing piers, ~10 min
• Surf City — restaurants, ice cream, shopping, ~15–20 min
• Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Rescue Center — Surf City, ~20 min
• Sneads Ferry — fresh local seafood, boat launch, ~15–20 min
• Missiles and More Museum — Topsail Beach history, ~25–30 min
• Serenity Point — quiet, dolphin-watching island tip, ~30 min
• Jacksonville, NC — groceries and box stores, ~30 min
Bring the car for grocery runs, but plan to park it most of the week — this stretch of the island is made for walking to the water.
Getting Around:
The neighborhood is compact and walkable, making it simple to explore on foot. Many attractions, like the beach and nearby amenities, are just a short walk away.
For those looking to explore further, renting a bike is a great option, as the area is bike-friendly with scenic routes. If you prefer driving, there are plenty of parking options available, and local roads are easy to navigate.
For dining and shopping, a quick drive will take you to nearby restaurants, cafes, and stores. Additionally, there are local services like boat rentals and fishing charters, allowing you to fully enjoy the coastal experience.
Other Things to Note:
Two vehicles are included — one in the driveway and one in the circle parking area using the provided pass, which must be displayed clearly. The HOA enforces parking rules strictly, and improperly parked vehicles may be towed at the guest's expense. Traveling with more than two cars? Public and paid parking are available nearby.
Check-in is after 4:00 PM, checkout before 10:00 AM. Ask ahead about early check-in — if the house is ready, it's $100 between 8–11 AM or $50 after 11 AM, confirmed the night before arrival.
This home sleeps a maximum of 8 registered guests, no exceptions. Please be considerate of the neighborhood: reports of excess noise, improper parking, or exceeding the guest limit can result in immediate removal without refund.
