Welcome to one of Myrtle Beach's most exclusive hidden gems—a custom-built intracoastal retreat tucked inside a private gated enclave of just nine homes. Perfectly positioned less than 10 minutes from the beach, Market Common, Coastal Grand Mall, championship golf, fine dining, Myrtle Beach International Airport (not in any flight pattern), and countless Grand Strand attractions, this extraordinary residence offers a rare combination of luxury, privacy, boating access, and convenience. Situated on a beautifully landscaped .22-acre homesite with Intracoastal Waterway views and a desirable second-row waterway location, this exceptional property includes an assigned private boat slip and access to the community boat launch, making it easy to enjoy the ultimate coastal lifestyle. Spend your mornings on the water, afternoons by the pool, and evenings relaxing in your own private oasis. Offering approximately 3, 895 heated square feet, this meticulously maintained home features 5 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and 2 half baths, with extensive renovations and premium upgrades throughout. From the moment you enter the dramatic vaulted foyer, you'll appreciate the craftsmanship and attention to detail, including rich hardwood flooring, soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, and impressive 10-inch Craftsman crown molding throughout the main level. Designed for both elegant entertaining and comfortable everyday living, the spacious floor plan flows seamlessly from room to room. The gourmet kitchen features white cabinetry, Corian countertops, newer stainless-steel appliances, a breakfast bar, generous storage, and direct access to the surrounding living and dining spaces. A formal dining room provides the perfect setting for holiday gatherings and special occasions. Adding a unique touch, a custom hidden bookcase door discreetly opens to a secure, lockable storage room. The outdoor living experience rivals that of a private resort. Enjoy a heated and cooled saltwater pool complete with a waterslide, upgraded Cyclonic filtration system, separate illuminated hot tub, covered poolside patio, and an expansive covered rear porch featuring a stunning brick wood-burning fireplace. French doors from the pool house create a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor entertaining spaces. Two greenhouses further enhance the property and may be removed at the buyer's request with sod installed in their place. Additional features include a relaxing wraparound front porch, two oversized garages with abundant storage, golf cart space, versatile lower-level living quarters ideal for guests or multi-generational living, and flexible space perfect for a home office, fitness studio, media room, or recreation area. Major recent improvements include a new roof in 2024 and new exterior siding in 2025. The HOA enhances the lock-and-leave lifestyle by covering lawn maintenance, garbage service, dock maintenance, gate maintenance, and common area lighting. Families will appreciate access to Socastee Elementary School, recipient of the prestigious Palmetto's Finest Award. Qualified VA buyers may also benefit from the opportunity to assume the seller's existing VA mortgage at 5.75%, subject to lender approval and eligibility requirements. Luxury homes with private boat slips, resort-style outdoor living, extensive updates, and this level of location convenience rarely come to market.
