About This Home

As of April 2025

1408 Royal Garden Resort is a direct oceanfront, two-bedroom, two-bathroom turnkey furnished condo featuring tile floors throughout, a white-on-white kitchen, and an HVAC air handler installed in 2024. The condo offers a private terrace accessible from the living room, providing breathtaking 180-degree views of the Atlantic Ocean. With an open living space ideal for entertaining, this unit is perfect as a personal retreat or a revenue-generating investment. It comes equipped with a stackable washer and dryer. The building itself offers an impressive range of amenities, including indoor and outdoor swimming pools and hot tubs, two kiddie pools, an oceanfront sundeck, a parking garage, security, a sauna, a game room, a conference room, the Sand Bar, and three elevators, all within a concrete and steel-constructed structure. The condo provides sweeping views of the Grand Strand, extending from Murrells Inlet to the expansive Atlantic horizon. One of the key advantages of this property is its extensive HOA coverage, which includes electric service for both the unit and common areas, water and sewer, trash pickup, elevator service, pool maintenance, landscaping, insurance, management, security, legal and accounting services, cable TV, common area maintenance and repair, telephone and internet service in the unit, and pest control. This comprehensive coverage ensures a hassle-free ownership experience. Located on one of the most beautiful stretches of the Grand Strand, this condo offers the convenience of nearby major transit routes, such as Hwy 17, Hwy 544, and Carolina Bays Parkway (Hwy 31), making it easy to explore surrounding cities. With Charleston, SC, and Wilmington, NC, just a two-hour drive away, and Myrtle Beach International Airport only 20 minutes from the property, travel is effortless. Local attractions, including Myrtle Beach State Park, Huntington Beach State Park, Brookgreen Gardens, and the historic city of Conway, are easily accessible. The condo is also within a 25-minute drive of Myrtle Beach Boardwalk and SkyWheel, and close to popular entertainment complexes like Barefoot Landing and Broadway at the Beach. Additionally, Murrells Inlet, known as the "Seafood Capital of South Carolina," is just a short distance away.
