About this home
An exceptional waterfront opportunity awaits with this proposed custom build by PBC Design + Build. Paired with the stunning Newport floor plan, this package offers the chance to create a luxury coastal retreat featuring approximately 2,981 square feet, 5 bedrooms, a dedicated bunk room, and 5 full bathrooms. Designed for waterfront living, the home's multiple covered porches and elevated layout are perfectly suited to take in the panoramic Intracoastal Waterway views and refreshing coastal breezes. The homesite itself is one of Hampstead's finest. Set on an elevated 0.52-acre lot along the Intracoastal Waterway, it offers sweeping views toward South Topsail Island, deep-water access, a private dock, and a 35-foot boat slip with lift already in place. Whether you're heading offshore for a day of fishing, cruising to waterfront restaurants, or spending the afternoon exploring the waterways, you'll enjoy quick access to the Atlantic Ocean right from your backyard. Located near Olde Point Country Club and just minutes from Topsail Island's beaches, shopping, and dining, this is a rare opportunity to build a custom waterfront home in one of Hampstead's most desirable locations. For those seeking an even more impressive estate, the adjoining lot is also available, creating the opportunity for additional waterfront frontage, enhanced privacy, and endless possibilities.
