Located on a large private lot with stands of live oaks on both sides, you will feel secluded in this maritime forest. The four decks of this recently renovated house in the prestigious Village of Stump Sound provide unforgettable panoramas. Whether it’s a view of a shrimp boat headed toward New River Inlet or a flock of pelicans winging through a sunset toward the ICW, you will want to spend most of your time soaking up the sun and the vistas. Just a 4-minute stroll and you’re on the sand, soaking up the sun!
This magnificent beach house features a refreshing pool and cozy lounge areas that let you unwind without making the trek back home. The beach is just steps away, nestled in a serene private neighborhood. For the active adventurers, you’ll love the neighborhood’s top-notch pickle ball and tennis courts, plus a handy kayak launch for those craving a bit of water fun. Delightful restaurants in Surf City and Sneads Ferry are just a quick drive away. Kids will love the flat beaches and warm North Carolina waters. The little Marine Biologists in the family can visit a Sea Turtle Recovery Center in Topsail Beach, while the history buffs can take a short ride to Wilmington and tour the Antebellum mansions and the Battleship North Carolina. Tennis is within walking distance and golf is less than 10 miles from the house. North Topsail boasts some of the best fishing on the East Coast and there are two public boat launches within a 10-minute drive. The unforgettable views and amenities will make this a vacation you won’t soon forget.

Perfect home and location for a family vacation
We enjoyed a wonderful week at this home, and it was perfect for our large family group of 6 adults and 3 kids. There was plenty of space in the living and dining area for everyone to enjoy meals, plenty of plates, glasses and silverware, multiple decks to enjoy, a grill and yard for kids to play in. It was right across the street from the community pool and beach access, and we caught crabs and watched the sunset from the dock down the street. Thank you for a wonderful trip; we would definitely stay again!
This home was in great proximity to the beach, has a very nice community pool, and great views of the sound and ocean from all 4 decks. The inside was spacious and open and easily fit 9 people. It could use a deep cleaning and some routine maintenance. There was half eaten candy, old receipts, change, and what appeared to be used toothbrushes in the drawers of the bedrooms and bathrooms. The home was “clean” in all visible areas but could definitely benefit from and all over deep cleaning. The screen to the one sliding door was off and just leaning against the door, some broken decor, and a leaking faucet. Easy fixes if someone took the time.
