    Rare North Topsail Beach coastal retreat offering the perfect combination of lifestyle, space, and income potential. Located at 685 New River Inlet Rd, this 6-bedroom, 6-bath home spans approximately 4,290 square feet on an unusually large ~1.6-acre parcel. The property offers ocean views, a private heated saltwater pool, hot tub, private dock, and 10,000-lb boat lift — creating a true beach-and-boating compound. Designed for large families, groups, and vacation-rental guests, the home has a proven rental history reportedly ranging from approximately $140,000 to $170,000 annually. Whether used as a personal second home, luxury rental, or hybrid income-producing retreat, this property offers a rare combination of scale, amenities, and location on North Topsail Beach. Opportunities with this much land, water access, rental history, and lifestyle appeal are difficult to replicate.
