Wake up to the water every day. This elevated four-bedroom waterfront home sits directly on the Intracoastal Waterway in the Socastee area of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina - offering the kind of raised beach home lifestyle that's increasingly hard to find. Set on a private .55-acre lot at 994 Folly Road with **no HOA**, this property comes with your own boat dock and boat parking, so the water isn't just a view - it's part of daily life. Step inside and the waterway follows you through the home. Newly installed oversized windows and French doors line the entire waterfront side, flooding the living room, kitchen, and primary suite with natural light and sweeping water views. The open-concept kitchen is made for gathering: granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, a spacious work island, breakfast bar, and a sunny breakfast nook that overlooks the ICW. A formal dining room off the foyer and a fireplace-anchored living room add warmth and elegance for everyday living or entertaining. The primary suite is a true retreat, with a sitting area, walk-in closet, and a spa-like ensuite bath featuring a tiled walk-in shower and freestanding soaking tub. A second waterfront bedroom offers its own ensuite bath, walk-in closet, and private balcony with French doors - perfect for guests or multi-generational living. A third bedroom off the laundry room, plus an upstairs loft-style room, give you the flexibility for a home office, media room, or extra guest space. Luxury vinyl plank flooring flows throughout, with ceramic tile in the bathrooms and laundry for easy care. Outside is where this home truly shines. Multiple decks and balconies, a rear porch, and a waterfront patio complete with a **tiki bar** create endless options for soaking in ICW sunsets. Park up to eight vehicles beneath the raised foundation, rinse off in the ground-floor outdoor shower after a day on the boat, and enjoy the durability of concrete fiber siding paired with a heat pump, central air, and public water and sewer. This is a home built for the way you actually want to live: pets, golf carts, and motorcycles are all welcome, and both **short-term and long-term rentals are allowed** - making it a fantastic option as a primary residence, second home, or income property. You're just minutes from the Socastee swing bridge, Market Common, Myrtle Beach International Airport, and the Atlantic Ocean.
