The Point of Serenity

A Newly Rebuilt Luxury Waterfront Estate at Serenity Point, Topsail Beach

Welcome to The Point of Serenity, an extraordinary custom-rebuilt waterfront estate completed in 2025 and located in one of the most coveted settings on the entire East Coast.

Tucked away at the southernmost tip of Topsail Island in the exclusive area known as Serenity Point, this remarkable home enjoys a truly rare location—offering both Atlantic Ocean access and a private Intracoastal Waterway dock. Surrounded by more than 150 acres of protected conservation land and 1.6 miles of undeveloped shoreline, Serenity Point offers a level of natural beauty, privacy, and tranquility that is increasingly difficult to find.

Positioned on a quiet oceanfront road, the home sits just steps from what many consider the most beautiful and uncrowded beach on Topsail Island. The beach access is directly across the street, while the backyard opens to the calm waters of a private canal leading directly to the Intracoastal Waterway. Here, guests can fish, kayak, paddleboard, swim, watch dolphins, or simply relax while taking in breathtaking sunset views over the water.

Unlike many coastal destinations crowded with public parking and day visitors, Topsail Beach remains wonderfully understated. The southern end of the island is primarily owner-occupied, with very limited public access and parking, preserving the peaceful character that makes this area so special.

The Best of Both Worlds: Ocean and Intracoastal

Few homes can offer such a unique combination of water access.

Spend your mornings walking miles of pristine shoreline, afternoons floating in the calm waters behind the home, and evenings watching the sun set over the Intracoastal Waterway from your private dock.

Guests bringing their own boat may use the private dock during their stay, making it easy to enjoy fishing, watersports, waterfront dining, and day trips to nearby barrier islands known for shelling and sand dollars. The local public boat ramp and marina are conveniently located less than two miles away.

Please note that the electric boat lift is configured for the owner's personal vessel and is not available for guest use.

Many guests discover that some of their favorite vacation memories happen right in the backyard. The protected canal waters allow for swimming, floating, paddleboarding, and relaxing without the waves and currents commonly associated with the ocean.

Designed for Exceptional Coastal Living

The Point of Serenity is not a typical beach house.

Created as a luxury gathering place for multiple generations, the home was thoughtfully designed to maximize views, comfort, and shared experiences.

Throughout the residence, sixteen expansive glass sliding door systems create a seamless connection between indoors and out, filling the home with natural light and showcasing panoramic water views from nearly every direction.

The upper levels feature modern glass deck railings that provide unobstructed ocean and Intracoastal vistas, while six spacious decks offer over 40 pieces of premium outdoor furniture, including dining tables, rockers, gliders, benches, and high-top seating areas.

Whether your group wants to gather together or spread out and enjoy private moments, there is ample space for everyone.

Additional outdoor features include:

Private fenced yard
Gas grilling station
Six expansive outdoor living decks
Private dock
Outdoor shower
Parking for up to six vehicles plus a boat trailer


Built for Multi-Generational Gatherings

The home comfortably accommodates large family groups while providing privacy and comfort throughout.

Sleeping Accommodations

Five luxurious king suites, each with a private ensuite bath
Two custom bunk rooms featuring premium mattresses designed for both children and adults
Nearly every bedroom enjoys direct deck or balcony access through private glass sliders

To make the home easily accessible for guests of all ages, a commercial-grade residential elevator with a 950-pound capacity services all four levels.

A Chef's Kitchen Worth Gathering Around:

At the heart of the home is a beautifully equipped gourmet kitchen designed for everything from casual breakfasts to holiday celebrations.

Features include:

Professional-grade appliances
Massive built-in double-width refrigerator/freezer
Two dishwashers
Double farmhouse sinks
Induction and convection cooking
Walk-in pantry
Extensive prep and serving space

The kitchen is exceptionally well stocked with premium cookware, including a professional All-Clad cookware collection, quality kitchen tools, and the accessories serious cooks appreciate.

Spaces to Relax, Gather and Play:

The home offers multiple living and entertainment areas to suit every generation.

Main Living Areas:

Two large family rooms
Leather reclining sofas and seating
Two 85-inch Smart TVs
Wet bars on the second and fourth floors
High-speed Wi-Fi with commercial-grade networking throughout the home

Game Room

The first-floor game room features:

Tornado Cyclone II Foosball Table
Air Hockey
Pac-Man Arcade
Gaming television
Indoor and outdoor family games

Outdoor Relaxation

The ocean-facing second-floor deck features a six-person hot tub, creating the perfect spot to unwind after a day on the water.

Work Remotely—If You Must

For guests extending their stay or mixing business with pleasure, two dedicated workspaces feature:

Electric height-adjustable desks
Dual large monitors
Jabra conferencing speaker
Professional office seating

The reliable high-speed internet and commercial-grade wireless system make video conferencing and remote work seamless.

The Penthouse Retreat

The entire fourth floor serves as a private owner's-style retreat that we affectionately call The Penthouse.

Spanning from ocean to Intracoastal views, this exclusive space features:

Expansive king suite
Private office
Leather reclining sofa with heat and massage functions
Peloton bike
Full-body massage chair
Telescope
Keurig coffee station
Mini refrigerator
Spectacular sunrise and sunset views

Because this area contains numerous fragile furnishings and amenities, we kindly ask that guests under 18 years of age not use the Penthouse level.

Consider it a peaceful sanctuary where adults can enjoy a little quiet time during a family vacation.

A Labor of Love:

We purchased this property from the original owners, who wisely selected one of the finest homesites on Topsail Island decades ago.

What began as a renovation quickly evolved into a complete reconstruction. Over nearly two years, the home was carefully rebuilt from the ground up with the goal of creating the ultimate family gathering place—one that honors the exceptional location while providing modern luxury and comfort.

Today, The Point of Serenity stands as a completely transformed coastal estate designed to be enjoyed for generations to come.

Serenity Point: One of the East Coast's Hidden Gems

Having vacationed on Topsail Island since the early 1980s, our family spent years searching for a location that combined the best of oceanfront living with the recreational opportunities offered by the Intracoastal Waterway.

We found it here.

From the home, guests can walk uninterrupted stretches of shoreline around Serenity Point, past the inlet, and along protected coastal habitats rarely found in developed beach communities.

The experience is peaceful, authentic, and wonderfully uncrowded—a refreshing contrast to many commercial beach destinations.

If your ideal vacation includes beautiful beaches, wildlife, boating, fishing, kayaking, sunshine, and peaceful coastal evenings, The Point of Serenity offers an experience that is truly difficult to replicate anywhere else.

What an amazing home and location! Our large family of 10 adults and 6 kids felt right at home- perfect bedroom set up, abundant and thoughtful amenities, lovely reno work and decor. Favorites included fishing off of the dock, porch lounging, and daily morning walks from the sound side to the beach. The kitchen /dining set up was a little bit tight for space but had everything we could possibly need. Hopefully this will be our new “beach home away from home”, we are already planning for a return stay next year. The hosts were top notch- highly communicative, accommodating and kind. Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful home with our family!

About the host

Hosted by Ted Waltz

Host profile image
Ted and Deb were originally from Kennett Square PA which is near Philadelphia. Deb grew up in Williamsville NY which is a small town near Buffalo NY and moved to Kennett Square after going to college in the Philadelphia area. That is where Ted and Deb first met, fell in love, and got married back in the early 1980’s. Ted first discovered Topsail Island when he was serving our country in the 82 Airborne division of the military. Ted grew up and lived most of his life in Kennett Square prior to moving to North Carolina. Ted’s parents both worked in the school system in Kennett Square (his father as a teacher and his mother as the school nurse). Ted was a Mushroom Farmer while he lived in PA (that region is known for being one of the largest producers of fresh Mushrooms in the world). Ted and Deb both still have family and friends in Kennett Square and Buffalo, but they enjoy coming to visit us in North Carolina (especially in the winter!).

Their three children are grown and married now. One is a Veterinarian, one is a teacher and the third is a mechanical engineer. They currently live on a small farm outside of Raleigh. Their three children have grown up enjoying the beaches here on Topsail Island and still look for shark teeth and sand dollars on every trip. Forty years ago, they used to travel here from the Philadelphia area because the Topsail Island beaches were always so clean and private. It was always worth the trip and over the years they have met many who traveled much further to enjoy Topsail Island. Today, Topsail Beach is uniquely private and unlike other areas, still maintains that Mayberry feel.

Why they chose this property

We have been vacationing on Topsail Island for over 40 years. Topsail Island is devided into 3 towns: Topsail Beach (aka South Topsail), Surf City (the center of the island) and North Topsail (the North end of the island). As Topsail Island has often been listed among the top 10 beaches in the United States, the island has built up.

What makes this property unique

This home was a labor of love. After vacationing on Topsail Island for more than 4 decades and owning short-term rental homes on the island since 2011, we finally sought out a property that was the most uniquely perfect location for us on the East Coast of the United States. This 5,500 square ft home was a total rebuild and the attention to detail will stop you in your tracks. With elevators, hot tub, private dock, glove leather reclining sofas, premium bedding throughout (Sterns & Foster, Simmons World Class, Purple and all name brand bedding), custom natural oak dining tables, rare and exotic marble, quartzite custom tile work, see through glass exterior railings, professional landscaping, Kayaks, game room and much much more!

Every aspect of the home was carefully considered in the nearly 2-year construction project. Everything from the seawall and dock to the driveway was reconstructed to meticulous detail. The furnishings from the decks to the mattresses and fixtures are ultra-premium. That's because this home was not built to be a rental home, it was built to be our personal family escape. If your family vacations are too important to leave to chance, you should consider taking the opportunity to stay in this fabulous property (only available for 7 day stay Sunday to Sunday during the prime summer season).

Come experience this amazing home which sits on the famous "Serenity Point" including over 150 acres and 1.6 miles of prime white sand beaches and an uncrowded undeveloped coastline. If your goal is to truly escape for a premium family experience but to not sacrifice luxury and quality, this home is definitely for you!!
