Sound Escape-NEW!-Stunning Sound Views!
Come unwind at Sound Escape, a four-bedroom, four-bath waterfront retreat in the heart of historic Ocean City, North Topsail Beach—where the past meets paradise and your only plan is to relax. Founded in 1949 as the first African American–owned beach community in North Carolina (long before the Civil Rights Act), Ocean City carries a legacy of resilience and community pride.
Here, you’re invited to let your worries drift away on the tide. This home boasts sweeping panoramic views of the Topsail Sound and distant glimpses of the Atlantic, seen best from its expansive wraparound decks. These outdoor spaces are perfect for "deck-camping" your morning coffee or sunset cocktail, letting the shimmering water and coastal breezes carry your stress away.
Inside, this serene escape offers four cozy bedrooms and four baths, comfortably accommodating up to 10 guests—ideal for family reunions, friend getaways, or multi-gen retreats. The bright top-level living and dining space welcomes everyone with glass-framed water views and an open layout that keeps conversations, laughter, and kitchen catch-ups flowing.
Just a short stroll leads you from soundside serenity to seaside sand—in just minutes, you can be building sandcastles, hunting shells, or chasing waves. And when the day turns to dusk, there’s no better backdrop than the sun slipping below the Sound’s horizon, painting the sky in sunset magic. Whether you’re looking for a historic escape, a family getaway, or a peaceful coastal retreat, Sound Escape delivers on all fronts. It’s not just a place to stay—it’s where memories are made, serenity is found, and your sense of wonder gets a little louder.
