    What's special

    Move-in-ready presentationFresh finishesBeautifully finished homeLike-new turn-key conditionModern touchesThoughtful updates throughoutClean elegant feel
    Set on a generous lot just shy of half an acre, this beautifully renovated home offers something increasingly rare in Pawleys Island....NO HOA. No monthly fees. No restrictive rules. No limitations on how you live. Whether you want to store your boat, RV, or simply enjoy the freedom of your own property, this home delivers a level of flexibility that today’s buyers truly value. Completely remodeled and renovated, the home is now in like-new, turn-key condition, blending timeless character with modern comfort. Thoughtful updates throughout create a clean, elegant feel while preserving the warmth and charm that make a house feel like home. The layout offers three bedrooms and two baths with well-proportioned living spaces, making it equally suited as a primary residence or a refined coastal retreat. Inside, the updates shine—fresh finishes, modern touches, and a move-in-ready presentation that allows you to unpack and immediately enjoy the lifestyle Pawleys Island is known for. Outside, the expansive lot provides room to breathe, entertain, or simply enjoy quiet evenings in a setting free from association oversight. Location further elevates the appeal. You’re just minutes from Litchfield Beach, close to the dining and waterfront energy of Murrells Inlet, and a short drive to Huntington Beach State Park and Brookgreen Gardens. Golf courses, nature, beaches, and local culture are all within easy reach—yet you still enjoy the peace and privacy that comes with owning land and freedom. This is Pawleys Island living without compromise: space, style, and independence—all wrapped into one beautifully finished home. Properties like this, with no HOA and full renovation already complete, are becoming harder to find.
