709 Ocean Blvd, Holly Ridge, NC 28445

709 Ocean Blvd is an unmistakable piece of Topsail coastline: a three-story oceanfront residence that opens wide to the Atlantic and delivers the kind of scale and utility coastal buyers demand. Sited on a 10,018 sq ft lot with direct beach access, this 2,698 sq ft home was built for comfort as much as for views—9-foot ceilings on principal levels, a working elevator to all floors, and broad, panoramic exposures to the water.

Inside, generous rooms accommodate family gatherings and vacation rental groups alike. The living spaces include a fireplace with gas logs for cooler evenings and practical coastal finishes that reflect careful maintenance; condition is listed as good. A primary suite with walk-in closet and a walk-in shower provides private convenience, while multiple additional bedrooms and bathrooms make hosting effortless. Systems are coastal-ready with a metal roof, heat pump and central AC, propane for gas appliances, municipal water and septic service.

Practical coastal design continues outside: an attached garage and driveway parking for several vehicles simplify arrival and storage, and the lot’s level topography gives easy access to the beach. The home’s wood-frame construction and durable exterior materials are aligned with long-term maintenance planning commonly required for oceanfront properties.

From an ownership and investment perspective, the house shows strong upside. Last sold in April 2021 for $1,033,000, current valuation analysis places the property between $1.4M and $1.5M (midpoint $1,450,000), supported by tight inventory and steady appreciation in this segment. With direct ocean frontage, an elevator, and 5 bedrooms/4 bathrooms, the home also projects strong short-term rental appeal—an estimated monthly rent of roughly $5,000 reflects current demand for similar oceanfront properties.

Buyers should note coastal ownership considerations—insurance, maintenance, and potential flood exposure—and verify lot boundaries and permit histories during diligence. For those seeking a primary coastal home or a high-performing investment in Topsail Beach/Holly Ridge, 709 Ocean Blvd blends proven rentalability, functional design, and incomparable ocean access into a compelling coastal offering.
