Description Description

It's time for the beach and Serenity By The Sea! This adorable cottage located in historic Ocean City features 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and ocean views from the covered porches. Enjoy the quiet area, cool ocean breezes and serenity by the sea!

You will find plenty of serenity in this one level beach cottage. Having everything on one level makes it easy for those who prefer less stairs, as this home only has entry stairs. The open living room, kitchen, and dining area makes hanging out a group affair. The dining table seats 8 and the comfortably furnished living room is perfect for relaxing. Beautiful unobstructed ocean views from the living room can’t be beat.

Sweet Dreams:

Three cozy bedrooms offer comfortable furnishings and a place for a peaceful night’s sleep.

  • Queen room with full private bath is in the back of the home
  • Queen room located streetside is full bath adjacent and has ocean views
  • Double room off the living area is full bath adjacent and has ocean views

Outdoor Spaces:

Two large covered porches offer plenty of shade and gorgeous unobstructed views of the ocean. While this home is technically across the street, there are no structures, other than sand dunes, blocking your view. The side porch contains multiple comfortable seating options, including tall chairs and a picnic table for outdoor dining and relaxing. The beach access is located just a short stroll away and has no stairs, perfect to use a cart or wagon.

Location:

Your beach rental is located in North Topsail Beach approximately 3.8 miles north of the Surf City high rise bridge. Be sure to visit some local attractions such as the Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Hospital and the Missiles and More Museum, which tells the story of our island’s past.

This property was AMAZING. Great views of the ocean. Well maintained and very clean. Loved the covered porches. That's where we spent most of our nights. I would have totally booked again for next year if I had the deposit to put down.

This was our first visit to Topsail and we absolutely loved it. The location, beach view, and the easy beach access, along with the comfortable porch furniture made this our favorite and we plan to return! We have rented many large homes through the years, but now we only have 1 child at home and didn't need a large rental. This home was exactly what we needed. Some areas of improvement would be to have more places to hang towels or clothes in the bathrooms or hallways. There was only one rack In the bathrooms and this isn't enough for multiple items. Also a small clothesline under the home is very handy for hanging beach towels to dry. The other thing that could use improvement would be the beds. We only had to use two but they both squeaked terribly and prevented us from having good sleep throughout the week. I hesitate to mention these items because there were so many positive things about the house that made this week one of our most favorite ever. It is an absolutely beautiful location and felt like home while we were there. We definitely want to come back to this home. Thank you so much!
