Some houses near the beach make you choose. You can have the pool...but almost no backyard. You can have the garage...but nowhere to put the boat. You can live close to the beach...but suddenly your driveway looks like a game of Tetris every time family comes to visit. This house in Lakes of Lockwood is the glorious exception. Located approximately seven minutes from Holden Beach, this property on almost an acre of land gives you something that has become increasingly difficult to find along the Carolina coast: SPACE. Actual, usable, glorious space. And lots of it. Let's Start With the Lot - Before we even walk inside, this property tells you it is different. The home sits on a large homesite with an extended driveway leading to a three-car side-load garage. Three cars. At the beach. That alone gets my attention.
But it gets better. Because of the way the garage and driveway are positioned, you aren't limited to simply parking three vehicles inside and calling it a day. There is substantial additional driveway and property space that creates options for extra vehicles, a boat or an RV behind the fence while still maintaining access to the garage. For buyers dreaming about coastal living, that flexibility matters. Maybe you've got a boat and spend your weekends on the water. Maybe you're bringing an RV. Store it in the lot near the community or enclose it behind the fence. Maybe the kids and grandkids descend on you every summer with approximately 47 vehicles. You have ROOM.
And because this is a side-load garage, the front of the house isn't dominated by garage doors either. It creates a much more attractive streetscape while making the parking configuration incredibly functional. Now Let's Talk About THAT Backyard - This isn't one of those coastal properties where somebody technically squeezed a pool into the backyard and you have approximately six inches left for a lounge chair. Nope. This is a real pool. A large pool is surrounded by a generous paver apron, creating plenty of room for lounge furniture, umbrellas, outdoor dining and big gatherings. And then there's still backyard left. A LOT of backyard. The entire .88 acres is fenced, creating a wonderful private setting where you can actually picture spending your summers. Pool parties. Cookouts. Kids cannonballing into the water. Friends gathered around the patio.
The flexibility continues once you step through the front door. With more than 3,000 square feet of living space across two levels, this home gives you room to spread out without requiring you to live your entire life upstairs. The first floor includes a primary suite with a private en-suite bath, giving you the option for comfortable main-level living. There is also another full bath on the first floor, along with the laundry room, kitchen, dining space and main living areas. The living room is spacious and inviting, anchored by a gas-log fireplace with a raised hearth and mantel that gives the room a true focal point. Just off the living room is another flexible space that can become whatever your life needs. An office? Perfect. A sitting room? Absolutely. Formal dining? That works too. The kitchen offers plenty of workspace with granite countertops and a peninsula that provides additional seating and creates a natural gathering spot. The kitchen and dining area flow together and overlook the backyard and pool. And that matters. Because when everyone is outside swimming, you're not tucked into a closed-off kitchen wondering what's happening in the backyard.The indoor and outdoor living spaces feel connected. The refrigerator is included, along with the washer and dryer, making the home even easier for the next owner to settle into. Lakes of Lockwood + Holden Beach - Then there is the location. The Lakes of Lockwood offers an established neighborhood atmosphere with a community pool and an attractive coastal setting, while keeping you only minutes from Holden Beach. That means beach days don't require a major expedition. Decide you want to see the ocean? Grab the towels and go. Want seafood dinner? Easy.
Need groceries, shopping or everyday services?
You're close to those too.
You get the neighborhood setting without giving up the thing most people move here for in the first place:
the coast.
