The five highest-priced home sales reported in Brunswick County, North Carolina for the week ending November 8, 2026 came to a combined $10.29 million. Each one was in a different town, from Oak Island and Ocean Isle Beach to Supply, the St James community in Southport and Bald Head Island, and all five were single-family homes.
Most of them face the water in one way or another: the Atlantic, the Intracoastal Waterway or, on Bald Head Island, a golf green. The newest was finished in 2025 and the oldest dates to 1972.
No. 1 — $3,249,999 · 923 E Beach Drive, Oak Island, North Carolina
The top sale of the week was a home completed in 2025 directly on the ocean in the E. Long Beach section of Oak Island, set on the dunes on a 7,405-square-foot lot. It sold for $3.25 million, its full asking price.
The home was built to take in a crowd. It has 11 bedrooms, nine bathrooms (eight full and one half) and 3,764 square feet, with an elevator running to every floor and a reverse floor plan that puts the main living space up high. There are two living areas, and one of them has its own kitchenette with a full-size refrigerator and a microwave. The main kitchen has quartz counters, an island with room to eat and stainless-steel appliances, a few of them doubled. Vinyl plank floors run through the interior, and the living space has an electric fireplace.
Outside, decks on every level look out over the Atlantic, and a heated saltwater pool is set into the decking. An enclosed outdoor shower with hot and cold water, parking under the home and a charging station for an electric car round out the practical side. The home sold furnished. Ocean Crest Pier and Island Way Restaurant are within walking distance, and the Oak Island Lighthouse, historic Southport and the ferry to Bald Head Island are a short drive away. The property last sold for $850,000 in 2024, before the current house was built.

No. 2 — $2,260,000 · 2777 Pinecrest Drive SE, Southport, North Carolina
At 5,467 square feet, the largest home of the five sits on the Intracoastal Waterway in St James, the gated golf and marina community in Southport. It sold for $2.26 million.
The water is the point of this property. The 0.45-acre lot has about 150 feet of frontage behind a bulkhead, with a private pier, a dock topped by a gazebo and a 12,000-pound boat lift. Behind the home, an infinity-edge swim spa, an exercise pool and a hot tub are designed to read as one with the waterway beyond. Two putting greens, tropical plantings and an extended deck under a patio roof fill out the yard, and two enclosed sunrooms open off the back of the home.
Built in 2002, the home has four bedrooms and five bathrooms, three full and two half. Tall ceilings and wide glass sliders face the water from the open living area, which has a gas fireplace and a kitchen with granite counters and a gas cooktop. The primary suite is on the main level, with its own sunroom, two walk-in closets, a jetted tub and a walk-in shower, and a second primary suite is upstairs. An elevator reaches every level, including a finished lower level with a bar and billiards room, a gym and a golf simulator room beside the three-car garage. A whole-house generator is in place. The property last sold for $1.02 million in 2020.
The home went under contract two days after it was listed. Lisa M Nieves of St James Properties LLC, Marina Office was the listing agent, and Savanna G Donoghue of Estate Legacy, LLC represented the buyer.

No. 3 — $1,950,000 · 45 E First Street, Ocean Isle Beach, North Carolina
Ocean Isle Beach’s East Side Story, as the listing calls it, puts the beach and the island’s center within easy reach: a ramped beach access is just across the street, and the heart of the island is a short walk away. The home at 45 E First Street sold for $1.95 million.
Completed in 2022 on a 4,792-square-foot lot, the smallest of the five, the home has five bedrooms, five bathrooms (four full and one half) and 2,841 square feet. The bedroom level has four bedrooms with their own baths plus a bunk room, and the living, dining and kitchen space is on the top floor, where it opens to the ocean views, a fireplace and a deck. An elevator connects every level, and a sound system is built in. Outside are sunny decks, porches, an outdoor grill, an outdoor shower and a private saltwater pool, and the Intracoastal Waterway is less than a mile away. The home sold furnished. The property last sold for $295,000 in 2021, before the current house was built.
A contract came four days after the home was listed. Heather T. Carnahan of Intracoastal Realty Corporation was the listing agent, and Daniel Pharo of Coldwell Banker Sea Coast AB represented the buyer.

No. 4 — $1,444,000 · 145 Ocean Boulevard W, Supply, North Carolina
The oldest home in this week’s Top 5, built in 1972, is an oceanfront home at 145 Ocean Boulevard W in Supply that sold for $1.444 million. It is also the smallest of the five, with 1,950 square feet, five bedrooms and three bathrooms on a 0.33-acre lot.
The great room and dining area are where the home earns its view: large windows run along most of the wall facing the ocean. The kitchen has been remodeled, the interior refinished and vinyl plank flooring installed. Outside there is an in-ground pool, a front porch, composite decking and an outdoor shower, and a small sitting area sits near the end of a private walkway. Restaurants, a boat ramp and pickleball courts are close by. The home sold furnished. The property last sold for $750,000 in 2019.
The Andrews Team of Coldwell Banker Sea Coast Advantage was the listing agent, and Denise Young of PROACTIVE Real Estate represented the buyer.

No. 5 — $1,390,000 · 6 Clapper Rail Court, Bald Head Island, North Carolina
On Bald Head Island, a home at 6 Clapper Rail Court looks out across the island’s golf course to the 14th green. It sold for $1.39 million. The 0.57-acre lot is the largest of the five, and a large live oak stands on it.
Built in 2018, the home has four bedrooms, six bathrooms (five full and one half) and 2,409 square feet. A reverse floor plan lifts the living space to the upper level, where a vaulted living room takes in the light and the view of the green. Screened porches on both levels give two places to watch the golfers: one opens off the living area and the other off the primary bedroom. That bedroom was made from two rooms and has two en suite bathrooms. Built-in cabinetry fills the closets, and a two-space garage holds golf carts, the island’s way of getting around, with extra workspace beneath the home. The home sold furnished. The property last sold for $425,000 in 2004, before the current house was built.
David Berne of Ivester Jackson Christie’s was the listing agent and also represented the buyer, so the same agent was on both sides of the sale.
