Three years old, and the sellers never stopped improving it. The HVAC system was upgraded in 2026 along with attic fans, added insulation, and a whole-home air purifier. Water filtration went in throughout the house in 2024. The windows are tinted, the gutter guards oversized, the driveway, sidewalk, and front porch coated and resealed this year, and the garage floor coated and fitted with cabinets and racking. Out back, stamped concrete replaced the builder slab, a motorized awning shades it on command, and lighting runs the length of the patio above a pond that borders this 0.26-acre corner homesite. What they started with was already good: a 2023 Beazer Ivey plan with 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, a half bath, and 2,987 heated square feet, built around a great room that rises two full stories to a wall of windows. The kitchen carries quartz countertops, a center work island with breakfast bar seating, a gas range with double oven, stainless steel appliances, a tile backsplash, glass-front cabinetry, and a pantry, with a breakfast nook facing the water. Formal dining adds a tray ceiling and wainscoting, and a first-floor office sits off the foyer. The primary suite is downstairs with a tray ceiling, two walk-in closets, a double-sink vanity, and a tiled walk-in shower. A loft, two bedrooms, and a full bath occupy the second floor, and the laundry room has its own utility sink. Belle Mer gives residents an outdoor pool, clubhouse, fitness center, and golf cart friendly streets, with pets, motorcycles, and golf carts allowed and long-term rentals permitted. Everything else is close: Surfside Beach, Market Common, the Murrells Inlet MarshWalk, golf, shopping, dining, medical facilities, and Myrtle Beach International Airport, all just off Highway 17 Bypass. Measurements are not guaranteed. Buyer is responsible for verifying.
