Looking for a waterfront beach home with incredible views, beach access, walkability, and short-term rental opportunity? This Surf City retreat offers a location and coastal lifestyle that simply can't be recreated. Welcome to 813 N. New River Drive Unit B in Serenity Bay, where you can walk to the beach, step into your front yard and launch your kayak or paddleboard into the stunning Intracoastal Waterway, and stroll into the heart of Surf City for restaurants, shops, church, the local fish market, Soundside Park, and year-round community events. Start your morning with a walk to the beach along the community's private beach walkway. Spend the afternoon kayaking, paddleboarding, or fishing while taking in the peaceful estuary and Intracoastal Waterway views. Then walk to dinner, grab a coffee, or visit the shops before coming home to watch an unforgettable sunset from your own waterfront deck. You can leave the car at home, this is the Topsail Island coastal lifestyle people dream about! Imagine walking across your grassy waterfront lawn to the Intracoastal water's edge. Step outside and you're surrounded by coastal beauty, with room to relax, entertain, watch dolphins and coastal birds, or simply enjoy the breeze. Launch a kayak or paddleboard right from your front yard and explore the Intracoastal Waterway and surrounding estuary. A quote for a future private dock is also available in the documents. And when you want the ocean, just walk along the community's private beach walkway and put your toes in the sand. The walkability is equally hard to duplicate.

Location is the one feature that truly is forever. Built just five years ago, this beautifully designed 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom townhome features a reverse floor plan designed to maximize panoramic water views.

Whether you're searching for a Surf City primary residence, Topsail Island vacation home, second home, waterfront investment property, or short-term rental opportunity, this property offers something increasingly difficult to find: beach access, Intracoastal Waterway views, waterfront recreation, downtown walkability, and modern construction all in one location. Walk to the beach. Kayak from your front yard. Walk to dinner. Watch the sunset from your deck. Repeat. Living here isn't simply about owning a home near the beach--it's about how living at the beach changes the way you live. Schedule your private tour of 813 N New River Drive B today!
