The other functions as a workshop and storage area. There is ample parking in the driveway for at least 8 cars. Purchased in 2020 with a plan to create an upscale, unique VRBO, this home has EVERYTHING. The current owners added the pool and hot tub, new decks, stainless steel railings, outdoor shower, new floors and wood ceilings. The kitchen and all three baths have been renovated. With beach AND sound access, views to die for, a quiet beach and location in between the business districts of Surf City and Topsail Beach - it is the perfect vacation destination. Previously a huge success as a VRBO, this property was grossing around $120,000/yr. In fact, the owners loved it so much they decided to make it their primary residence! In the few years they've lived there they have made additional improvements including: electric fireplace, new paint inside and out, improved landscaping, new gravel driveway, and more. Don't miss this exceptionally rare opportunity!
