About This Home
Welcome to “Wannabe by the Sea” - an extraordinary oceanfront retreat located at 173 Norris Drive in the heart of Litchfield Beach. Built in 2004, this raised beach home spans more than 5,100 heated square feet and offers six bedrooms, six full bathrooms, and two half baths across three thoughtfully designed levels. It is one of only a few homes on Litchfield Beach to have its own private oceanfront pool which gives it excellent rental potential. The main floor features a spacious gourmet kitchen with granite countertops, custom cabinetry, double ovens, two dishwashers, and dual refrigerators with ice makers, opening seamlessly to expansive living and dining areas accented with hardwood floors, detailed trim, and a cozy fireplace. Upstairs, four en-suite bedrooms are accompanied by a second living area with wet bar and oceanfront balcony, while the top level boasts a large recreation room with pool table, wet bar, half bath, and sweeping views of the Atlantic. Two additional bedrooms and baths are located on the first level, along with multiple gathering spaces throughout the home. Designed for both entertaining and relaxation, this home offers abundant indoor and outdoor living options, including covered porches, oceanfront decks, and a private heated swimming pool with walkway to the beach. Additional features include multiple wet bars, surround sound with smart TVs, two laundry rooms, ceiling fans, and ample parking beneath the home with storage for beach gear and bicycles. Set on nearly one-third of an acre, this premier Litchfield Beach property is located next door to the iconic Litchfield Inn which puts this home within easy walking distance to the casual Tide Beach Bar & Grill as well as the more high-end restaurant, Tide to Table. This Litchfield beach home combines modern comforts with timeless coastal charm, delivering an unparalleled oceanfront lifestyle just minutes from dining, shopping, and the natural beauty of Pawleys Island.
