NOT IN A FLOOD ZONE! Each level of this two-story home features 2 bedrooms and 1 full bath, making it ideal for rental income, a second home, or multigenerational living. Inside, you'll find original knotty pine walls, ceilings, and kitchen cabinets that reflect the craftsmanship of a bygone era, complemented by beautifully refinished hardwood floors throughout. Both bathrooms have been fully updated with brand-new tiled showers and stylish vanities, and each unit now features brand-new washer and dryer hook-ups with brand-new appliances included.

With no HOA, a location outside of the flood zone, and thoughtful upgrades throughout---including a new roof in 2017 and a Ring security system---this property offers the rare combination of beachside living and practical peace of mind. Just a short stroll from the ocean and minutes to golf, dining, shopping, and entertainment, this home captures the best of North Myrtle Beach coastal living.
