About this home

Welcome home to your inviting personal retreat on Topsail Island. The ''Fish and Petal Cottage'' is nestled on a secure second row lot at the northern end of sought-after Topsail Road and offers sweeping, unobstructed ocean views and public beach access just steps from your door.

Step inside on the main level and you will be greeted by spacious kitchen, dining and living areas and two generous bedrooms with queen beds along with two full baths. The home is protected by a ''FORTIFIED '' roof installed in January of 2024 and the primary HVAC system is less than two years old. On the ground floor you will find an intriguing additional finished bedroom with an exquisite king size bed crafted in England and a full bath. The additional 224 sq. ft. of heated and finished space is not included in the listed square footage of the property. There is even a fenced in back yard for your furry family members. This captivating island property is conveying fully furnished as shown except for two pieces of artwork and produced over $33,000 last season of summer rental income through VRBO. This exceptional opportunity won't last long so book a showing today.
