If you've been dreaming about a top-floor place at the beach where the view is front and center, Sea Master 409 delivers in all the right ways. This 3 bedroom, 2 and a half bath ocean view condo sits on the top floor of the oceanfront Sea Master building in Garden City Beach. From the moment you walk into the main living space, your eyes are drawn straight to the Atlantic. The kitchen opens into the dining and living area, creating an easy, open flow that keeps everyone connected -- and keeps the ocean as your everyday backdrop. Large sliding glass doors lead out to a covered balcony with wide ocean views, perfect for slow mornings with coffee or winding down in the afternoon shade. Being on the top floor adds an extra sense of privacy and perspective. The primary bedroom also enjoys ocean views and balcony access, while two additional bedrooms provide plenty of room for guests, family, or rental flexibility. The building offers multiple elevators, an oceanfront pool with a spacious sun deck, direct beach access, and the convenience of two laundry rooms on each floor. HOA utilities include water, trash, pool service, landscaping, cable/internet, and pest control -- making ownership refreshingly low-maintenance. You're just minutes from the Garden City Pier and the Surfside Beach Pier, plus waterfront dining and live music at the Murrells Inlet MarshWalk. Enjoy local seaside favorite, the Conch Cafe, just up the street. Whether you're looking for a full-time coastal retreat, a second home, or a strong investment opportunity along the South Strand, this top-floor ocean view condo checks the boxes for location, lifestyle, and easy beach living.
