1970 Governors Landing Dr #205, Murrells Inlet, SC 29576
About this home
Experience luxury Lowcountry living from this exceptional end-unit riverfront residence in the highly sought-after Governors Landing community, nestled within the gates of Historic Wachesaw Plantation. Surrounded by majestic live oaks draped in Spanish moss and overlooking the cypress-lined banks of the Waccamaw River, this rarely available residence offers panoramic views of the Waccamaw River and Wacca Wache Marina, nearly 2,000 heated square feet, a true three-bedroom, three-bath floor plan, an enclosed Carolina Room, and one of only a select few private third-floor rooftop decks in the community. Designed to embrace its remarkable waterfront setting, the spacious living and dining areas feature hardwood flooring, custom built-ins, a fireplace, wet bar, abundant natural light, and an enclosed Carolina Room where the beauty of the river becomes part of everyday living. The kitchen offers granite countertops, custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and generous storage. The upper level features two private bedroom suites, including a spacious primary retreat with direct access to the expansive rooftop deck overlooking the Waccamaw River. The third bedroom also features its own en suite bath, making it ideal for guests or family, while the conveniently located laundry area just off the primary suite adds everyday convenience. There is also a ground level detached storage area for each unit for added convenience. Recent improvements include a new roof and skylights (2025), replacement of most windows, a new refrigerator, new dishwasher, and three new toilets. Offered mostly furnished, if desired by the purchaser, with only a few personal items excluded, this home presents a relatively turnkey opportunity as a primary residence, second home, or Lowcountry retreat. Governors Landing offers beautifully maintained grounds, pickleball courts, a playground, dog park, and the privacy and security of gated Wachesaw Plantation. Residents enjoy breathtaking views overlooking the Waccamaw River, with Wacca Wache Marina just moments away for boating enthusiasts. Optional memberships are available to the renowned Tom Fazio-designed Wachesaw Plantation Club, featuring championship golf, tennis, dining, and additional club amenities. Conveniently located just minutes from the Murrells Inlet MarshWalk, Brookgreen Gardens, Huntington Beach State Park, championship golf, exceptional dining, shopping, and the beaches of Litchfield and Pawleys Island, this is a rare opportunity to own one of Governors Landing's most desirable riverfront residences. Whether relaxing in the Carolina Room or enjoying the expansive rooftop deck, you'll appreciate the ever-changing views of the Waccamaw River, towering cypress trees, majestic live oaks, and the timeless Lowcountry landscape that make this one of Governors Landing's most desirable locations.
Wachesaw Plantation, located between Murrells Inlet and the Waccamaw River, is a golf and waterfront Murrells Inlet neighborhood with live-oak canopies and tidal-marsh views. The scene concentrates around the Wachesaw Plantation Clubhouse, where fairways, cart paths, and low-slung Southern architecture set the daily rhythm. Homes lean toward classic Lowcountry forms—porches, shutters, and broad lots framed by pines and palms. Waterway access and marsh edges shape a quiet, outdoors-forward routine. For local flavor, The Wicked Tuna, Drunken Jack’s Restaurant & Lounge, and Brookgreen Gardens anchor nearby outings. Sunsets often read as a wide horizon of reeds, river bends, and distant boats.
