Turn at the “Hot Now” sign and you’re almost home — because this raised beach house sits just moments from Krispy Kreme and an easy stroll to Garden City Beach. Only two years old and styled with clean, modern coastal finishes, this fully furnished five-bedroom, five-and-a-half-bath home offers the ideal blend of vacation-ready fun and year-round comfort. With beautiful landscaping already established, Bahama shutters on every window, and a private saltwater pool, the lifestyle here is effortless from day one. The exterior features Hardie Plank siding, palm-lined paver beds, a fully fenced backyard around the pool, and generous parking. Under the house you’ll find spacious covered parking plus an insulated storage room equipped with an ice machine, cooler, water heater, and a restaurant-style utility sink with garbage disposal—rare extras that make beach living even easier. An outdoor shower is located beneath the home as well, conveniently positioned on the wall of the storage room. The backyard centers around a six-foot-deep rectangular saltwater pool surrounded by a paver patio (partially covered), and a built-in speaker system. A large second-level deck overlooks the pool and offers plenty of room to lounge or dine outdoors. Inside, the home opens to durable LVP flooring, transitional trim detailing, crown molding, board-and-batten wall accents, and upgraded craftsman touches that run throughout. The open-concept main level connects the living room, dining area, and kitchen into one bright, airy space designed for gathering. The kitchen features white shaker cabinetry with black hardware, veined granite countertops, a subway tile backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, GE stainless steel appliances, a farmhouse-style sink, a breakfast-bar island with storage, and a dedicated coffee bar/home management station. The living room includes a modern three-blade wood ceiling fan and double glass doors that lead to a spacious front porch with cable railing and ceiling fans—perfect for enjoying ocean breezes. Elevator access conveniently services all levels of the home. Every bedroom in the house has its own private en-suite bathroom, and all bathrooms are finished with coordinated modern tile floors, granite countertops, contemporary fixtures, and either tiled walk-in showers with glass doors or tiled tub/shower combinations. On the main level, a private hallway leads to a powder room and a guest bedroom with a tiled walk-in shower and peaceful views of the backyard and deck, offering especially easy access to the pool area. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite at the front of the home features its own covered balcony, a walk-in tiled shower with glass door, a granite double vanity, and clean transitional styling. Another large upstairs bedroom at the back of the home overlooks the pool and functions beautifully as a second primary suite; it includes a granite double-sink vanity and a tiled tub/shower combination. The remaining two upstairs bedrooms each feature their own tiled walk-in shower with glass door and single granite vanity, offering guests privacy and comfort. With top quality trim and molding details throughout, insulated storage below the home, professionally finished landscaping, and thoughtful upgrades inside and out, this home stands out among neighboring properties. Whether you’re seeking a modern coastal getaway, a full-time residence, or a turnkey investment, this Garden City beach house delivers it all—just moments from Garden City Beach and Pier, the Murrells Inlet MarshWalk, dining, arcades, mini-golf, and all the classic charm of this beloved seaside town.
