This stunning 2024-built 8-bedroom, 5-bathroom beach home sits in a prime second-row location in Surf City, with public beach access just steps away. Fully furnished and immediately rental-ready, the property offers approximately 4,400 square feet of modern coastal luxury that comfortably sleeps 24 guests. Thoughtfully designed for high-performing short-term rentals, it features a private elevator, multiple expansive Trex decks including a brand-new ground-floor deck with hot tub and stairs added in March 2026, energy-efficient Bosch 18 SEER app-controlled zoned HVAC, two 50-gallon water heaters, and a spacious primary suite with luxury finishes. Unfinished top-floor rooms provide sweeping ocean and sound views, presenting excellent potential for future expansion or an entertainment area to boost rental income even further.
