Extensively Updated Oceanfront Condo with Strong Rental History (Over $29K in revenue from March 2025 through December 2025).
Oceanfront condo located within a well-established beachfront community on North Topsail Beach. Positioned directly on the oceanfront, this condo offers beautiful Atlantic Ocean views and convenient beach access just steps from the building.
Inside, the condo has been extensively updated and showcases LVP flooring, updated cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances, creating a clean, modern coastal interior designed for durability, style, and guest appeal. The well-designed layout includes a private bedroom along with an additional built-in bunk area, providing extra sleeping space and increasing flexibility for short-term rental use.
This property is a highly successful and frequently booked short-term rental, reflecting consistent demand and strong performance in this oceanfront market. Due to the unit's active rental schedule and steady bookings, interior photos will be added on or after January 20, 2026, once guest occupancy allows.
Unit 172 represents an excellent opportunity to own a well-performing oceanfront investment or an updated coastal retreat. Property can be purchased as a package with 2182 New River Inlet Rd Unit 274 and 2224 New River Inlet Road Unit 338.
