Property Description

Available at Auction. Imagine a coastal retreat with front-row views of the Intracoastal Waterway and unforgettable sunsets. Set on an expansive 1.34-acre soundfront lot, enjoy a daily spectacle of passing boats and the iconic Surf City bridge illuminating the horizon. Inside, the spacious kitchen features stainless steel appliances and a custom wood floor that opens to the main living area, where vaulted ceilings and large windows frame the water beyond. Step outside to enjoy your morning coffee or evening breeze on the screened porch while watching life unfold on the ICW. The main living level includes a bedroom and full bath. Upstairs, an octagonal window offers a charming peek at the bridge, leading to the primary bedroom, an additional bedroom, and another full bath. The ground level adds flexible space with a studio-style area featuring a third bathroom (unpermitted), kitchenette, sleeping area, ample storage, and a mini garage perfect for a golf cart or beach gear. Outdoors, the property is landscaped with hearty coastal flora and generous decking ideal for entertaining. Nature lovers will appreciate the birdlife and the potential to build a dock to a navigable channel (subject to permits). With no HOA restrictions, this property offers excellent short-term rental potential and presents a unique opportunity for savvy investors or home buyers to make their island dreams a reality. Beach access is easy via a 3' pedestrian easement to South Shore Drive, with public beach access just two blocks away at the 600 block of South Shore Dr and Charlotte Ave. 819 S Topsail Dr is perfectly positioned in the heart of town, just moments from shopping, dining, Soundside Park, the Surf City fishing pier, ice cream parlors, surf shops, coffee houses, fish markets, and boutiques. Located only 300 feet from Kenneth Batts Family Park with a playground, basketball court and pier, this home delivers the best of waterfront living in Surf City. Existing flood insurance policy may be assumable by the new owner. Coverage limits and replacement value should be independently verified with the insurance provider. Potential for a dock, subject to permitting and regulatory approvals.
