A Private Waterfront Retreat on Brices Creek Some homes are simply a place to live. Others offer a lifestyle--and this exceptional custom-built waterfront home is one of those rare places where life feels a little slower, sunsets last a little longer, and the water is always calling. Custom built in 2022 and tucked away at the end of a cul-de-sac, with access via a private driveway/easement, this nearly 3800-square-foot home sits on approximately half an acre along a secluded harbor just off Brices Creek. Surrounded by water and nature, the property offers unobstructed views and a peaceful sense of privacy that is increasingly hard to find.

The thoughtfully designed floor plan offers four bedrooms and three full baths, along with a dedicated home office and two laundry rooms. Upstairs, a spacious family room provides another incredible place to relax while taking in sweeping views of the water. And there's even more. An additional approximately 560 square feet--not included in the home's heated square footage--has been transformed into a private gym and man cave, providing flexible space for workouts, hobbies or simply getting away. Storage is abundant as well, with more than 600 square feet of unfinished space above the garage, conveniently accessed by a staircase. Whether used for seasonal storage, boating gear, outdoor equipment or future possibilities, this generous space is a tremendous bonus. Outdoor living is at the heart of this property, with more than 500 square feet of covered porches designed for enjoying coastal Carolina throughout the seasons. Gather around the fire pit on cool evenings, relax on the porch as the sun sets over the harbor, or head down to your private dock and enjoy life along the water.
