About this home
Ocean Views and Private Deeded Beach Access on Surf City's Golden Mile! Homes like this rarely come to market on Surf City's coveted "Golden Mile." 811-A S. Shore Drive is a second-row half duplex with sweeping ocean views and private deeded beach access just 50 feet from the door. It also looks out over the sound and Intracoastal Waterway, so you get sunrise over the Atlantic and sunset over the marsh from the same home. The layout is designed around the water. The main living level has vaulted ceilings, walls of windows, and an open flow from the kitchen to the dining and living areas, which makes it easy to entertain while taking in the view. The top-floor bedroom is the standout, with a wall of windows framing the ocean and its own private bath. Altogether, the home offers 5 bedrooms, 4 full baths, and 2,360 square feet, including a primary suite with a private balcony and walk-in closet. Large front and back decks extend the living space outdoors, and an outdoor shower and ample parking make beach days easy. A metal roof, municipal utilities, and no HOA keep ownership simple. The home is offered fully furnished, with rental history available. It's ready to enjoy from day one as a primary residence, a second home, or an established investment on one of Topsail Island's most desirable stretches of beach.
