This is an exceptionally RARE opportunity to own one of the finest penthouses on the Grand Strand. Located within the exclusive, gated community of the Marlin Quay, this fully renovated, updated and beautifully furnished residence defines coastal luxury. Lovingly maintained by its current owners and never rented, this immaculate 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath penthouse offers an unparalleled living experience in one of the area’s most desirable waterfront settings. From the moment you enter, you’re greeted by a bright, open layout designed for both comfort and sophistication. Expansive windows flood the living spaces with natural light while perfectly framing breathtaking views of the ocean, inlet, and marina. The kitchen is thoughtfully appointed with stainless steel appliances, solid surface countertops, and premium cabinetry — ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The dining area flows seamlessly from the main living space, creating the perfect setting for hosting family and friends. The primary suite serves as a private retreat, showcasing spectacular water views, a spacious walk-in closet, and a beautifully finished en-suite bathroom with luxurious details. Two additional generously sized bedrooms offer stunning inlet views and exceptional comfort for guests or family. Step outside onto your private balcony to relax, unwind, and enjoy unforgettable sunset views over the water — a daily reminder of why this residence is so special. Additional features include a marina-facing ground-floor storage unit, an interior storage closet off the primary suite, designated parking within secure gates, and private elevators serving just two residences per floor. Residents also enjoy access to two large outdoor pools and convenient beach access just across the street. Ideally situated next door to the highly regarded Gulfstream Cafe, and the relatively new onsite restaurant, The Quay Seafood Grill and only a short drive to the popular Murrells Inlet MarshWalk, you are perfectly positioned for premier dining, entertainment, and coastal living. Opportunities like this are seldom available. Schedule your private showing today. Note: Some images have been enhanced to highlight the spectacular sunsets — one of the most captivating features of this stunning penthouse.
