A cathedral ceiling and clerestory windows bring volume and light to the great room, while the marble fireplace, detailed mantel and custom built-ins give the room architectural character. With three bedrooms, three-and-a-half baths and the primary suite, office, laundry and main living spaces on the first floor, this villa lives much like a single-family home with less exterior maintenance to manage. The first-floor primary suite overlooks the lake and includes two walk-in closets and a thoughtfully renovated 2026 bath. Marble carries through the space, with a large glass shower featuring herringbone mosaic, bench and niche, a separate soaking tub, quartz double vanity and custom cabinetry. An arched transom frames the lake view. The kitchen offers generous cabinetry and counter space, a raised breakfast-bar peninsula, pull-out pantry storage, under-cabinet lighting and a window over the sink, with the kitchen open to the dining and living areas. Engineered oak flooring carries through the great room, dining area, primary bedroom and office. The all-season sun room is one of the home's most inviting spaces, with cased windows and transoms beneath a beadboard ceiling and views toward the lake. Outside, the angled position of this end-unit villa creates unexpected privacy. Two connected brick-paver patios provide separate spaces for grilling and dining and gathering around the fire pit, surrounded by landscaping the sellers have continued to develop and enjoy. Upstairs, two guest bedrooms with vaulted ceilings and private baths give family and overnight guests their own space, with a loft overlooking the great room. A large conditioned walk-in storage room can also serve as a craft room or additional workspace, with separate walk-in attic and garage storage. Roof replaced in 2022; water heater installed in 2024. Huntington Lake Villas provides exterior-maintenance benefits including exterior painting and power washing, roof and gutter maintenance, termite coverage and pest control; windows and doors remain the homeowner's responsibility. Huntington Lake is a notably well-connected neighborhood. Its private pool and owners' clubhouse with fitness room are exclusively for Huntington Lake Villas owners and also serve as gathering places for the neighborhood. A welcome committee, homeowner activities and seasonal gatherings make it easy to get to know neighbors. Huntington Lake Villas does not allow rentals for new purchasers. Ownership in The Reserve includes gated access and deeded Litchfield by the Sea privileges with private beach access, an oceanfront owners' clubhouse, tennis, pickleball and walking trails.

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.

Something feels different about the setting at 27 Maritime Circle. This 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath Harbor Club Villa in The Reserve, in Pawleys Island, offers 2,826 heated square feet, a main-level primary suite, and a private wooded setting enjoyed from both the screened porch and deck. Harbor Club Villas is notably located near Harbor Club Marina. With just two villas per building, these homes have a more residential feel than many traditional villa settings. At 27 Maritime Circle, generous interior space, main-level living and two distinct outdoor living areas come together particularly well. Inside, the two-story great room immediately makes an impression. Oak hardwood floors, a gas fireplace with built-ins, plantation shutters and a loft overlook give the room its character. Light enters from multiple levels through a round gable window, transoms, tall windows, and French doors, with two sets of French doors opening directly to the deck and wooded backdrop. The kitchen features natural cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, a work island with cooktop, breakfast bar and walk-in pantry. A bay-window breakfast nook creates a casual gathering space just off the kitchen, while the dining room opens directly to the screened porch. The screened porch feels like an outdoor room, with brick walls, a stained tongue-and-groove ceiling and high screened openings. It connects to the adjoining deck, giving the home separate spaces for sitting outside and grilling, with a gas line already in place. The main-level primary suite keeps everyday living downstairs and includes a bay of shuttered windows, high ceilings with crown molding, organized walk-in closet and spacious bath with double vanity, jetted tub, separate glass shower with built-in bench and skylight. The laundry room is conveniently located nearby. Upstairs are two additional bedroom suites, each with a private bath, plus a spacious loft offering a second living area and room for a desk or workspace. Storage is another Harbor Club Villas strength: this villa includes a finished, climate-controlled storage room plus additional walk-in attic storage. The Reserve is a gated Pawleys Island community, and ownership includes deeded Litchfield by the Sea access with private beach access, the beach house and deck complex, tennis, pickleball, trails and additional recreation amenities. Harbor Club Marina and The Reserve Golf Club are separate from property ownership and optional. Harbor Club Marina is located in a protected cove just off the Intracoastal Waterway, while The Reserve Golf Club features a Greg Norman-designed course and is part of McConnell Golf. It is one of the things buyers appreciate about The Reserve: golf and boating can be part of the lifestyle without being required by property ownership. Harbor Club Villas provides lower-maintenance ownership, with association fees covering many of the expenses owners would otherwise manage individually, including exterior maintenance and painting, landscaping, water and sewer, cable and internet, trash and pest control. The roof was replaced in 2021 by the Harbor Club HOA. For buyers looking for space and privacy without the maintenance demands of a single-family home, 27 Maritime Circle offers another advantage that is difficult to duplicate: life inside The Reserve with deeded Litchfield by the Sea beach access and the opportunity to add golf or boating if and when those pieces fit.

At 12 Spartina Court #4, the salt marsh changes with the tide and the season just beyond the living areas and deck. Heron Marsh’s beach access is less than a three-minute walk away, and the neighborhood pool is even closer. This renovated and furnished two-bedroom, two-bath end villa offers approximately 1,390 heated square feet in Heron Marsh Villas at Litchfield by the Sea in Pawleys Island. The vaulted living and dining areas open through a wall of sliding glass to the deck, where the view stretches across HOA-maintained lawn to the marsh with no building interrupting the sightline. Bedroom #1 is on the main level with a completely rebuilt full bath finished in subway tile. Upstairs, the entire second floor is devoted to Bedroom #2, a spacious suite with its own full bath and washer and dryer. With one bedroom on each level, the floor plan gives owners flexibility in how the two spaces work for them and their guests. The 2026 renovation is complete and includes a renovated kitchen with new quartz countertops, new appliances and a refreshed coastal color palette, along with the completely rebuilt main-level bath, new flooring and new windows. The villa conveys furnished, with furnishings selected to complement the renovation. As an end unit, #4 offers more square footage, more windows and a larger deck than an interior Heron Marsh villa. The roof dates to 2020 and the HVAC system to 2023. On the ground level, covered parking, a storage closet and a covered patio add practical space for beach gear and another place to enjoy being outside. The villa is in a designated flood zone, and Heron Marsh villas are elevated on pilings. The HOA maintains villa exteriors, lawns and common areas. Rentals are allowed, although the current owner has never rented #4. Heron Marsh Villas is inside gated Litchfield by the Sea and has its own pool as well as a separate walkway to the beach. Litchfield by the Sea’s owners’ oceanfront clubhouse serves as a central beach access point with a sundeck and parking, while additional community amenities include tennis and pickleball courts, walking trails and stocked ponds for fishing.

279 Midden Drive offers nearly two acres of extraordinary privacy in Prince George Oceanside, widely regarded as one of the East Coast’s most exclusive, private and beautifully preserved low-density ocean front communities. Positioned at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, Lot 21 is arguably one of the most distinctive homesites in Prince George — a remarkable setting where the Atlantic Ocean, tidal marsh, historic wetlands, and a private estate homesite all come together. The property overlooks more than 20 acres of historic tidal marsh including Middleton Pond, a century-old duck impoundment that creates an expansive and exceptionally peaceful natural backdrop. Surrounded by water, marsh, preserved lands, and mature vegetation, the homesite has an almost island-like quality — a private enclave tucked between the ocean and the tidal Lowcountry landscape. Several magnificent live oaks, hundreds of years old, grace the property and provide an irreplaceable sense of place. Their scale and character offer the opportunity to create a dramatic, naturally landscaped entrance to a future Lowcountry estate — something that simply cannot be recreated with new construction or landscaping. Beyond Middleton Pond, the property overlooks protected wetlands held within a conservation easement, preserving the natural landscape and protecting the setting from future development. With Prince George Preservation land, the Atlantic Ocean, wetlands, and undeveloped plantation acreage surrounding the area, the sense of privacy is exceptional. Prince George itself is limited to only approximately 148 homesites community-wide, ranging from roughly three-quarters of an acre to more than 15 acres. The result is a degree of space, preservation, and tranquility increasingly difficult to find along the Carolina coast. A direct golf-cart path from the area provides effortless access to the beach and Prince George’s exceptional oceanside amenities, including private beach access, the Ocean Clubhouse and swimming pool, tennis, volleyball and basketball courts, bike paths and multiple lakes and ponds. Across Highway 17, owners also enjoy the Prince George Riverside amenities, including the River Clubhouse, a boardwalk along the Intracoastal Waterway, and a private 28-slip marina — offering the unusual ability to enjoy both the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway within the same private community. Architecture throughout Prince George follows a traditional and historic Lowcountry design language, creating an atmosphere of understated elegance and timeless coastal character. Despite its extraordinary seclusion, 279 Midden Drive is conveniently located just minutes from both Pawleys Island and historic Georgetown, South Carolina, providing easy access to shopping, dining, boating, golf, and everyday conveniences. This is more than a building lot. It is an opportunity to create a lasting family estate in one of the most remarkable natural settings in Prince George — overlooking historic Middleton Pond, beneath centuries-old live oaks, with the ocean on one side and the tidal Lowcountry landscape on the other. Properties with this combination of acreage, privacy, history, preservation, and proximity to the ocean rarely become available in Prince George Oceanside. Photos and words simply cannot capture the setting. A private tour is the best way to understand what makes this property — and Prince George — so special.

From the moment you drive through the gates of Litchfield Plantation, you know you’ve arrived somewhere special. The beautiful live oaks lining the road into the plantation, dripping with Spanish moss, immediately set the tone for what makes this community so special. Litchfield Plantation is one of the most desired gated communities in Pawleys Island. This Lowcountry home with a welcoming front porch boasts 5 bedrooms and 3½ baths. The home has a wonderful floor plan with a primary suite on the first floor and a beautiful guest suite upstairs with its own private bath. The first floor has so many lovely details, including plantation shutters, recessed lighting, antique gates, crown molding, pantry, foyer closet and a screened porch. I particularly love the privacy of the side yard, where you can sit and enjoy the beautiful landscaping surrounding the home with a lighted wall. The palms, Japanese Maple, and mature greenery give the yard such a peaceful, established feeling. And then there is the community pool… truly one of the prettiest settings I’ve ever seen. It overlooks the marsh and is surrounded by live oaks covered in Spanish Moss. There is something so peaceful about sitting there and taking it all in. The community also has its own private beach house with bathrooms and parking, making beach days so easy and convenient. For those who love being on the water, there is boat storage and a marina available for an additional fee. There is even a beautiful historic plantation house within the community available for special events, which adds to the history and charm of this very special place. With a ¼-acre lot, beautiful landscaping, private guest suite, wonderful amenities, beach access, and that unmistakable Pawleys Island charm, this home is more than just a place to live; it is a place you, your family and guests will always enjoy.
