Home Styles and Price Ranges

Buyers searching for homes in Pawleys Island and Litchfield Beach will find a genuine mix of property types. Classic Lowcountry-style homes on raised foundations, built primarily between the 1970s and 1990s, make up a significant portion of the inventory. Newer construction in planned communities has expanded the supply, with move-in-ready homes in the 1,800 to 3,200 square foot range listing between $450,000 and $850,000. Oceanfront and creek-front properties occupy the upper end, frequently exceeding $1.5 million. Smaller marsh-view cottages closer to the Pawleys Island causeway often list between $320,000 and $550,000, offering an entry point into the area without sacrificing the coastal atmosphere.

Neighborhoods and Subdivisions

Litchfield by the Sea

Litchfield by the Sea is one of the most recognized gated communities in the area, stretching across roughly 4,500 acres between U.S. Highway 17 and the Atlantic Ocean. Homes here include oceanfront villas, golf course properties, and creek-side cottages, with prices typically ranging from $500,000 to over $2 million depending on position and finish level. The community includes private beach access, tennis facilities, and walking trails along the creek system.

Hagley Estates and Pawleys Plantation

Hagley Estates sits along the Waccamaw Neck near the Intracoastal Waterway and attracts buyers who want larger lots and a quieter residential feel. Homes here typically sit on quarter-acre to half-acre lots, with prices in the $400,000 to $700,000 range. Pawleys Plantation, a gated golf community developed in the late 1980s, features custom homes surrounding the Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course, with listings generally falling between $500,000 and $1.1 million.

Day-to-Day Life

Residents move through their days at a noticeably slower pace than in Myrtle Beach, 25 miles north on U.S. 17. Brookgreen Gardens, a nationally recognized sculpture garden and wildlife preserve, sits just north of the area and serves as a year-round destination for residents. Pawleys Island Elementary and Waccamaw Middle and High School serve the local student population within the Georgetown County School District. Georgetown is approximately 15 miles south along U.S. 17, providing access to medical services, waterfront dining, and historic downtown amenities. Myrtle Beach International Airport is roughly a 35-minute drive north, making the area practical for buyers who travel regularly.

Working with a Local Expert

Buyers exploring homes for sale in this corridor benefit from working with someone who understands the nuances between communities, flood zones, and HOA structures. Dunes Realty Sales brings deep familiarity with both the island properties and the inland neighborhoods that define this stretch of the South Carolina coast.

The beach is a 60-second walk from this door. A wrap-around covered porch faces the ocean, and two private balconies are on the marsh side. This four-bedroom, three-bath condo at Captains Quarters in Litchfield by the Sea, in Pawleys Island, offers 1,983 heated square feet and 2,499 square feet total, single-level living and ocean views. D-16 is on the first floor, so it’s one flight down, past the pool complex and onto the boardwalk to the beach — no elevator required. Four-bedroom condos are not as commonly available throughout Litchfield by the Sea, and D-16 has all four bedrooms on one level — no interior stairs and no bedrooms on another floor. The great room, dining area and primary bedroom all open to a wrap-around covered porch that changes as you walk it — the pool at one end, the dunes and the ocean at the other. Both are a hop, skip and a jump away, and that easy back-and-forth is what owners and guests come back for. The open kitchen has a work island, raised breakfast bar, pantry and stainless appliances. The split-bedroom plan gives the primary suite its own side, with a tray ceiling, walk-in closet and bath with double sinks, walk-in shower, garden tub and separate water closet. Two guest bedrooms have private balconies — one facing the sunset side and another toward Charlestowne Grant. The fourth is adjacent to a full bath with double sinks that also opens to the hallway. Much of the expensive work has already been done inside D-16 and throughout Captains Quarters. The HVAC was replaced in 2025, range and microwave in 2024, and Coretec luxury vinyl plank and tile run throughout — no carpet. Association improvements include the roof in 2018, building windows and doors in 2015–2016, and pool-complex resurfacing in 2025. For a condominium buyer, that history matters: meaningful improvements have been addressed along the way rather than left for another day. Captains Quarters offers concrete-and-steel construction and under-building parking. D-16 has stayed in the same family since new — a beach place passed between family members as generations made memories here. Captains Quarters amenities include two free-form pools, a hot tub, cabana with covered seating and restrooms, picnic and grilling areas, ground-floor beach-gear storage, an assigned covered parking space and elevator. Landscaped pathways wind through coastal plantings against Litchfield by the Sea’s established dune system. Litchfield by the Sea ownership also includes private beach access, the Beach Club and oceanfront deck, tennis and pickleball, fishing and crabbing docks, and paved walking and biking paths. D-16 is offered furnished and equipped, so bring your bathing suit and boogie board and start enjoying Litchfield by the Sea. Short-term rentals are permitted, with an established rental history. Those records and the current booking calendar are available.

A full acre in Pawleys Island with no HOA, and a pool house that changes how you use the whole property. Start out back, because that's where this one earns its keep. The 960 sq ft heated-and-cooled pool house has vaulted white shiplap ceilings and wood-look herringbone tile running the full floor. A full glass-panel garage door rolls up and the room becomes part of the deck — no threshold, no doorway, just one space that runs from the bar to the water. Two more garage doors lift over the bar tops, so drinks pass straight through to the lanai without anyone coming inside. Open them in October and the whole party moves at once. Close them in January, light the fireplace, and it's a den. Inside there's a full wet bar with glass-front cabinets, a half bath, and room for a pool table and a shuffleboard without either one feeling crowded. It comes furnished and ready. A covered lanai wraps the pool side with its own bar and stools. The attached carport is deep enough for a boat or an RV under cover — no storage lot, no monthly fee, no hauling it across town on a Friday afternoon. The pool is freeform with brick-banded decking, a basketball goal already set, and string lights overhead. Vinyl privacy fencing on both sides, hardwoods behind, palms at the deck's edge. The main house is a two-story traditional behind a columned front porch, with brick steps and a curved walk crossing an open front lawn. The foyer has a hardwood stair, chair rail, and a solid wood door with a sidelight. Formal dining sits to one side. The great room is built around a stacked-stone fireplace that runs floor to ceiling, topped with a live-edge mantel and flanked by transom windows. French doors at the far end put the pool in view from the sofa. The kitchen is gray shaker cabinets, quartz counters, and a glass mosaic backsplash in blues and grays. Double wall ovens, a cooktop under a black vented hood, black stainless appliances, and a breakfast bar for the overflow. The walk-in pantry has wraparound shelving deep enough to hold a month of groceries. The primary bath has a freestanding soaking tub with a floor-mounted filler, a tiled steam shower with dual rain heads, a bench, and a recessed niche, and twin vessel sinks set on dark granite. A glass-block window brings in light without giving up privacy. Four bedrooms in all. The primary suite carries soft sage walls and a wall of windows. A guest room upstairs is done in deep green with light from two exposures. The vaulted bonus room runs the length of the garage — a fourth bedroom, a playroom, a media room, whatever the season calls for. Between the house and the pool, a screened porch with composite decking and a retractable awning. It's the seat everyone fights over. And this is Pawleys Island, which means the Waccamaw is part of the routine. Blackwater under cypress, redfish and bass, kayaks at first light, and boat landings close enough that a Saturday on the river doesn't take planning. The beaches are minutes east. Brookgreen and Huntington Beach State Park are up the road. One acre. No HOA. Flood Zone X. Room for the boat, the pool, and everyone who hears about it.
