Waterfront Homes on Topsail Island

Topsail Island, a captivating barrier island located off the coast of North Carolina, is a hidden gem that offers a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. Stretching approximately 26 miles in length, this slender island is home to three charming communities: Surf City, Topsail Beach, and North Topsail Beach, each with its unique allure.

Surf City, the largest of the three, is the commercial hub of the island. It boasts a vibrant blend of local shops, restaurants, and recreational activities. The iconic Surf City Ocean Pier is a popular spot for fishing and enjoying breathtaking ocean views. The town also offers a variety of water sports, including surfing, paddleboarding, and kayaking, living up to its name.

Topsail Beach, located at the southern end of the island, is known for its serene atmosphere and slower pace of life. It's a haven for those seeking relaxation and natural beauty. The town is home to the Missiles and More Museum, which chronicles the island's intriguing history, including its role in Operation Bumblebee during the Cold War.

North Topsail Beach, on the northernmost part of the island, is renowned for its stunning, uncrowded beaches and the tranquil waters of Stump Sound. It's an ideal spot for beachcombing, bird watching, and fishing. The Sea View Pier, one of the longest fishing piers in North Carolina, is a must-visit for anglers.

Topsail Island's pristine beaches, rich history, and warm, welcoming communities make it a top destination for home buyers. Here are all of the waterfront homes listed for sale in Surf City, Topsail Beach, and North Topsail Beach. You can narrow your search by price, # bedrooms, # baths, etc. If you aren't seeing what you want and would like help narrowing down your search, please don’t hesitate to reach out to your agent or give us a call. We may know of an option you haven't thought of yet.

Some of these properties may or may not come with boat slips. Waterfront homes frequently include private docks or piers, but, depending on location, some properties are restricted to marinas and assigned boat slips. If the home is located in a community, especially one with an homeowners' association (HOA), it’s best to research the community in addition to the property. We recommend checking the HOA amenities section on each listing page and paying close attention to the monthly cost.

Please note that certain waterfront properties do come with restrictions on usage. Some may or may not allow docks and other development. The property may also fall within a flood zone. If any of these details are a concern to you, please know that we have experience with flood insurance, CAMA, and other coastal restrictions. It’s part of our role as real estate agents to help you navigate these special circumstances, so you can get into the home of your dreams.
