About This Home
Move-in ready three-bedroom, two-bathroom ranch home on a single level in Somerset Cove at The Gates, a pool community in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, just south of Highway 544 and west of Highway 17 Bypass. The open floor plan opens with a vaulted living room, a ceiling fan, and rear windows and a patio door that pull natural light across ceramic tile flooring into the dining area and kitchen. The kitchen offers a breakfast bar, wood cabinetry, a pantry closet, a range, an over-the-range microwave, a dishwasher, and a refrigerator, with the garage entry a few steps away for easy unloading. A split bedroom layout places the primary suite on its own side of the home with a tray ceiling, a walk-in closet, and an en suite bath with a double vanity and a tiled walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms, a full hall bath, and an interior laundry room complete the plan. Outside, a concrete patio with a retractable awning extends the living space toward a tree-lined backyard, and low-maintenance vinyl siding with brick accents keeps exterior upkeep simple. The attached two-car garage adds storage and parking for four vehicles. Somerset Cove at The Gates includes access to a community outdoor pool and clubhouse, and golf carts, motorcycles, and pets are allowed. Long-term rentals are permitted. Located about three miles from the Atlantic Ocean, close to Surfside Beach, Highway 707, Market Common, and the Murrells Inlet MarshWalk. Measurements are not guaranteed. Buyer is responsible for verifying. Some photos in this listing have been virtually staged.
