Property Description

Exceptional opportunity to own a duplexable lot in North Topsail Beach! Located at 225 Seashore Drive, this unique oversized parcel spans from Island Drive to Sea Shore Drive, offering the rare advantage of frontage on two streets and outstanding development flexibility. A 12-ft beach access is located directly across the street, providing convenient, stress-free access to the sand and surf just steps from your door.

The property currently features a cozy beach cottage that may be utilized as-is, renovated, or removed to create a blank canvas for your coastal vision. Zoned R-10, the site offers excellent development potential and is eligible for duplex construction per the Town of North Topsail Beach. Documentation from the Town Planner confirms the site is suitable for a duplex and includes conceptual layouts demonstrating how two dwelling units and shared common areas could fit within the property’s development envelope.

The lot benefits from R-10 zoning standards, including 20-foot front setbacks, 8-foot side setbacks, and a 10-foot rear setback, with structures permitted up to 48 feet in height. A 12-foot easement located between 225 and 231 Seashore Drive is intended as a pedestrian pathway leading directly to the beach access across the street, further enhancing the property’s accessibility and appeal.

Situated on a quiet dead-end street with minimal traffic, the property offers a peaceful coastal setting while remaining conveniently located less than five miles from the Surf City Bridge. Enjoy easy access to shopping, dining, entertainment, and everyday conveniences. The site offers the potential for both ocean and sound views, allowing future owners to experience the beauty of sunrise and sunset from multiple coastal vantage points.

The property is located within an AE flood zone and is currently connected to ONWASA water service. A septic system services the existing home (permit uploaded under documents), and sellers believe a second septic tank may also be present on the property, although its condition and functionality are unknown.

Whether you’re seeking a personal beach retreat, investment property, duplex development opportunity, or future homesite, this versatile parcel presents a rare chance to secure a prime location in one of North Topsail Beach’s most desirable areas.
