Rare opportunities like this one only come around so often so now is your chance to see this future homesite and explore the vibrant and well-manicured community of SeaScape that is full of activities, clubs and social events which will keep you on the go while making new friends. Sit on your rooftop deck while sipping coffee in the morning and watch the anglers throw their cast nets for bait before heading out in their center console set ups to fish their favorite spots. Take a walk down your private pier with your curious dog to check your crab pots and maybe take a cast or two. After that it's time for a quick golf cart ride to the Grande Manor House for a workout in the fully equipped gym. When finished, head down to shower off before taking a dip in the outdoor pool because the indoor pool and spa are better for use during the colder months. Dry off and head over in the cart to the marina to see if any of your buddies are hanging out at the Harbor Master house. It's always fun to check out the 75-boat slip marina which is one of the main hubs of activity in SeaScape but it's also nice to hit one of the many walking trails while enjoying the abundance of nature which residents refer to as their own 500-acre nature preserve. When you decide it's time for your feet to hit the sand, take the quick drive over to Holden Beach and park at the private second row beach clubhouse perfectly located for the exclusive use of SeaScape residents and accessible to Holden Beach fairs and events. When the time comes and you are able to relax in the ... privacy of your coastal haven with breathtaking views that are only yours, that is when you will know that you have finally made it!
