Welcome to The Rivergate on the Waccamaw, a private riverfront retreat designed for the kind of life that feels a little slower, a little quieter, and a whole lot more intentional.
Tucked inside a gated community and set directly along the Waccamaw River, this 4-bedroom, 4-bath property offers the rare combination of waterfront living, flexible space, and true privacy. From the moment you pull into the circular drive, the setting feels different. Live oak trees draped in hanging Spanish moss, a stocked pond with a fountain, and a gazebo welcome you in, creating a peaceful first impression before you ever step inside.
The main home offers multiple living areas, giving everyone room to spread out while still feeling connected. Whether you are hosting family for the weekend, enjoying a quiet evening at home, or creating separate spaces for work, guests, hobbies, or relaxation, the layout is built for real life. Multiple porches extend the living space outdoors and invite you to slow down with morning coffee, afternoon breezes, or an evening view toward the river.
The property also includes a separate guest house with kitchenette, offering incredible flexibility for extended family, visitors, private guest quarters, or potential income-producing use. It is the kind of added space that makes the property feel less like a single home and more like a private waterfront compound.
Out back, the Waccamaw River becomes part of everyday life. Spend your mornings launching a kayak, your afternoons fishing from the dock, or your evenings enjoying the quiet rhythm of the water beneath the shade of the live oaks and hanging Spanish moss. Between the riverfront setting, stocked pond, gazebo, fountain, and generous outdoor areas, this property was made for people who want to actually use and enjoy the land around them.
A detached two-car garage adds practical storage for vehicles, tools, kayaks, fishing gear, or weekend toys, while irrigation around the home helps keep the grounds looking their best. The property is served by well water and septic, adding to its self-sufficient, tucked-away feel.
This is not a cookie-cutter home, and it is not for someone looking for ordinary. This is for the buyer who wants privacy, water, flexibility, and a place where guests can come stay without being under the same roof. It is for the person who wants room to breathe, space to gather, and a reason to spend more time outside.
The Rivergate on the Waccamaw is more than a home. It is a lifestyle, a retreat, and a rare opportunity to own a truly unique riverfront property in Brunswick County.
