ICW front cottage with gorgeous, unobstructed views of the waterway and Topsail Island! Located on a large, private .79 acre lot with NO HOA, this one is a rare find! On the main living level, you will find beautiful hardwood flooring throughout, and lots of large windows showcasing this home's magnificent island views and bringing in tons of natural light. The master bedroom suite is equipped with two closets, solar tubes to brighten up the space, and a newly remodeled master bathroom with heated tile flooring, dual sinks, a large walk- in shower, plenty of toiletry and linen storage, and a spa- like soaking tub with more incredible views of the ICW and the Surf City bridge! A cozy guest bedroom and a full bath are also conveniently located upstairs off the kitchen and family room. On the bottom level you will find an additional bedroom space also with water views, 2 flex spaces, and another full bathroom. Enjoy your very own private private pier and dock with two boat lifts (10,000 and 5,000 lbs) and just imagine the ease of jumping in your boat on a whim to fish, cruise, or sandbar hop! Other noteworthy features include: an outdoor storage shed, a newer bulkhead, a tankless hot water heater, a huge deck overlooking the water with beautiful cable railing, plenty of deck space to dine under the stars, and beautiful crystal gas logs in the family room for those chilly nights at the beach. The yard is beautifully manicured and spacious and includes garden beds for the perfect spot to grow your own flowers and veggies while watching the boats go by! Paradise found!
