Sneads Ferry Real Estate

A traditional fishing village, Sneads Ferry is as blessed in history and culture as it is fresh seafood. A population of barely over 2,000 maintains a strong sense of community pride in the heritage and ideal lifestyle that is unique to Sneads Ferry.

Located on the mainland and on the New River near the northern tip of Topsail Island and just south of Camp Lejeune, Sneads Ferry has easy access to the Intracoastal Waterway. Sneads Ferry’s prime location, combined with affordable waterfront properties, give residents the best of ocean life and an easy commute to Camp Lejeune and other nearby populated areas.

A rich history makes a solid foundation for Sneads Ferry’s future. First settled in 1775, Sneads Ferry is one of North Carolina’s oldest, yet still vibrant towns. While the original ferry that operated for over 200 years has been replaced with a new high-rise span, Sneads Ferry is still very much a coastal town where the priority is its people.

Residents take pride in their heritage and openly invite others to explore their communities through a series of cultural events. The annual two-day Sneads Ferry Shrimp Festival and the annual King Mackerel Tournament honors local fishermen, who catch over 385 tons of shrimp, 25 tons of flounder, and nearly 500 other delicious seafood items throughout the year. Proceeds from previous events have been reinvested in Sneads Ferry, helping to establish a 14-acre community park and to build a 7,200- square-foot Shrimp Festival Community Building.

You don’t have to be in the seafood business to enjoy the wonderful waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Sneads Ferry offers New River Marina, Old Ferry Marina and Swan Point Marina for local and visitor boaters to fuel up and prepare before heading out for open water adventures.

A small village where enjoying fresh seafood is an important part of life, Sneads Ferry is a community of amazing opportunities for those seeking the best in coastal living.
