Property Description

COMING SOON — THIS is the kind of Murrells Inlet property that is hard to put into a box, and that’s exactly what makes it so special. A beach house for the whole family. A multigenerational home with private space for everyone. A coastal getaway with room for the boat, golf carts, and all the toys that come with living near the water. A place to live upstairs while using the ground level as a private guest or in-law suite—or exploring its potential for additional income. Or simply a property you continue transforming over time into your own private Inlet retreat.Offering 2,700 heated square feet, 3,500 total square feet, 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, NO HOA, and approximately 0.21 acre, this raised beach home offers a level of flexibility that is hard to find. Add in a huge fenced backyard, three distinct levels of living, and a location just one row from the marshfront homes that define this stretch of Murrells Inlet, and the possibilities become even more exciting. One of the home’s biggest surprises is on the ground level: a completely private suite with its own bedroom, full bath, living area, and kitchenette. Think parents or in-laws with comfortable space of their own, older kids who want a little independence, private quarters for visiting friends and family, or the opportunity to explore additional income potential. The owners previously used this level as a short-term rental, adding another layer of possibility to an already versatile home. Head upstairs and the home changes gears. The second floor is designed for everyday living, bringing the kitchen, living room, half bath, primary suite with private en-suite bathroom, screened porch, and open deck together on one level. Start the morning with coffee on the porch, come home after a day near the water, and settle into the relaxed pace that makes Murrells Inlet living so special. The third floor offers even more privacy, with two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom tucked away from the main activity below—ideal for children, family, friends, or grandkids who may quickly decide this is where they want to spend their summers. But don’t stop at the house. Step into the huge fenced backyard and start imagining what could come next. Bring the boat. Bring the trailer. Bring the golf carts, kayaks, paddleboards, fishing gear, and beach toys. Convenient rear access makes hauling and storing everything easier, while a large shed provides even more space for the extras. And there is still room to dream. Picture the future: a pool surrounded by outdoor living space. A backyard built for summer cookouts and Lowcountry evenings. Perhaps a guest house or additional structure, subject to zoning, permitting, and approvals. There is room here to dream beyond what already exists.And you get all of it without an HOA, making the possibilities endless. Best of all, you’re in the heart of Murrells Inlet, minutes from the MarshWalk, beach, waterfront restaurants, boating, live entertainment, and everything that makes the Inlet lifestyle so sought after. Make it the family beach house. Make it your full-time home. Bring multiple generations together without giving up privacy. Explore the ground level’s income potential. Create the backyard you’ve always wanted. Or combine a little bit of everything. Some properties simply give you a house. This one gives you possibilities—and the chance to create your own version of the Murrells Inlet lifestyle. Professional photography is scheduled for Tuesday.
