Beautifully updated and packed with upgrades, this spacious 5-bedroom home with a dedicated office offers an incredible combination of indoor comfort and resort-style outdoor living in the desirable Avalon community of Carolina Forest. Inside, you'll find a versatile floor plan featuring an eat-in kitchen, formal dining room with butler's pantry, Carolina room, dedicated office, and a dramatic living room with vaulted ceilings and a brand-new oversized ceiling fan. Ceiling fans with lights have also been added throughout the bedrooms, kitchen, office, and Carolina room. The completely renovated kitchen is a showstopper with granite countertops, upgraded lighting, new garbage disposal, and a full suite of Samsung appliances. The oversized smart refrigerator is loaded with technology, including a built-in screen with TV, internet and music capabilities. A new microwave and range complete the space. The entire home has been freshly painted down to the baseboards, while upgraded lighting fixtures and sleek black electrical and light switch plates add a modern finishing touch. Additional improvements include a brand-new sliding glass door, upgraded chair-height toilets, replaced exterior outlets, and plantation shutters and window treatments that convey. The primary bath provides a relaxing retreat with a jetted tub, separate shower, and upgraded showerheads. Step outside and you'll quickly see what makes this property special. Situated on a large cul-de-sac lot, the fully fenced backyard opens to a peaceful pond and protected wetland view, providing a beautiful natural backdrop with no future development directly behind the property. Enjoy sightings of bass, catfish, sunfish, turtles and an array of visiting wildlife. The centerpiece of the backyard is the 40' x 14' in-ground saltwater pool with an adjoining hot tub that waterfalls into the main pool, surrounded by an expansive concrete pool deck and beautifully landscaped grounds with outdoor lighting. Pool equipment conveys, including two robotic skimmers—one for the pool bottom and another for the surface—making maintenance a breeze. The pool motor and salt cell generator were also recently replaced and remain under warranty. Major improvements provide additional peace of mind. Both HVAC systems were replaced and upgraded to Lennox systems in 2021 and remain under warranty, and the roof was replaced in 2021 and is also under warranty. The home has a transferable termite bond, three exterior security cameras with motion-detecting floodlights, and two attics providing additional storage. With generous living space, extensive upgrades, a spectacular pool and spa, protected water views, and a sought-after Carolina Forest location, this home offers the space and lifestyle you've been waiting for. Schedule your private showing and come experience the back yard for yourself!
Carolina Forest, located between the Intracoastal Waterway and the Waccamaw River, is a master-planned and suburban Carolina Forest neighborhood with pine-canopy boulevards and golf-course greens. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the U.S. 501 and Carolina Forest Boulevard intersection, where shopping plazas, local eateries, and daily errands cluster in a steady hum of traffic and patio tables. Community pillars include the Carolina Forest Recreation Center, the Carolina Forest Library, and the nearby Carolina Opry for a polished night out. Streetscapes mix newer single-family homes, townhomes, and apartment communities with pocket ponds and sidewalks. Trailheads and sports fields thread through the landscape, with quick drives to the beach corridor and the riverfront. The pace reads practical and outdoorsy, shaped by schools, recreation complexes, and wide-open sky.
