About this home
For the past decade, someone has woken up in this unit to Atlantic sunrises, intracoastal sunsets. Brewed coffee in the open kitchen then strolled barefoot across the cherrywood floors for a quiet cup on the balcony and the sound of the ocean. Not a vacation. Not a rental. Home. And now, for the first time, it is available to whoever falls in love with it next.
This unit, 1204, has been a primary residence for its current owners for the past decade, and before that a cherished second home. The difference shows in every corner. No rental wear. No deferred maintenance. No inherited booking calendar or tenant expectations. Just a pristine, lovingly maintained oceanfront condo on Topsail Island ready for whoever comes next.
The refresh makes it even better. Rich cherrywood floors anchor the living spaces with the kind of warmth that newer luxury vinyl simply cannot replicate. New neutral carpet in both bedrooms. Fresh paint throughout. Most furnishings included. The work is done. The decisions have been made. You close and you arrive.
Two bedrooms. Two full baths. 1,229 square feet on the second floor with a private balcony that puts the Atlantic breeze within reach of wherever you happen to be standing. The floor plan is open and easy and works for every version of coastal life you might be imagining, a permanent address on the water, a lock-and-leave retreat, or a vacation rental investment launched from a condition that few can match.
Shipwatch Villas does the rest. An oceanfront community pool with sundeck. Direct private beach boardwalk access. Outdoor grilling areas. Elevator (two serve the complex) service to every floor. A pet-friendly community policy that does not make you choose between the beach and the dog. The building sits at the northern tip of Topsail Island, minutes from Camp Lejeune, MCAS New River, MARSOC, USCG training and Stone Bay. Seaview Pier and the Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Rescue Center are nearby. Surf City waterfront dining is a short drive. Wilmington is less than an hour away.
Topsail Island is a 26-mile barrier island on the southeastern North Carolina coast, largely undeveloped and fiercely protected that way. North Topsail Beach carries a town motto of Nature's Tranquil Beauty and earns it. The Atlantic sunrises here are extraordinary. The pace is deliberate. The phones go quiet.
Shipwatch Villas is now VA approved. Qualified veterans, active duty service members, and military retirees may be eligible to purchase with little to no down payment and no PMI. Contact a VA-approved lender for current rates and terms specific to your situation.
Competitively priced, motivated seller, updated unit currently available at Shipwatch Villas. A decade of primary residence. Never rented. Cherrywood floors. Move-in ready. The one worth seeing first....
