## Description

### Agent Description
Two views. One sunrise. Endless possibility. Unit 1105 at Shipwatch Villas is a true oceanfront condo offering a spacious, open floor plan designed for family entertainment at its finest. This 2-bedroom, 2-bath lower-level unit delivers what most Topsail buyers spend years searching for ~ Atlantic sunrise views from the primary suite, Intracoastal sunset views from the guest room, and a covered oceanfront balcony accessible directly from both the living room and primary bedroom. The layout flows from a fully equipped kitchen, recently renovated in coastal neutrals, through a dining area into a generous ocean-view living room with direct balcony access, plus a private in-unit laundry area ~ a detail that separates serious beach homes from weekend rentals. Held as a mostly private family retreat and sleeping six comfortably, this unit carries none of the wear of a heavy rental cycle ~ yet every box on an investor's checklist is already checked. Community amenities include an oceanfront pool, private beach boardwalk access, multiple grilling and picnic areas, outdoor shower and rinse station, on-site property management, two elevator and ramp access, and a pet-friendly policy. The Seaview Fishing Pier is just 2 miles away, Surf City Beach and North Shore Golf Course are within 6 miles, and Camp Lejeune is just 23 miles away ~ making this equally compelling for military buyers, permanent residents, and investors targeting the vacation rental market. No rental restrictions. Proven demand. Irreplaceable views. Contents convey, rental projections upon request. Vacant most of the season and easy to tour. Make your appointment today.
