About This Home
Tucked within one of Myrtle Beach’s most desirable Intracoastal Waterway communities, 987 Shipmaster Avenue offers a rare blend of high-end design, peaceful outdoor space, and everyday functionality. This thoughtfully renovated custom home is located in the heart of Carolina Forest, close to top-rated schools, shopping, dining, and all the conveniences the area is known for. Step inside to discover a warm, refined interior filled with natural light and timeless materials. Wide-plank European white oak flooring runs throughout, setting the tone for a clean, homey aesthetic. Natural light pours in through custom European windows that frame the living spaces and bring the outdoors into the home. A veneer plaster fireplace anchors the living room with quiet sophistication, while Semco microcement finishes in the bathrooms and on the counters create a seamless, modern look. The kitchen features natural wood wall paneling, elegant surfaces, and a minimalist layout designed with both form and function in mind. Outside, the property is just as special. The backyard is peaceful and private, with a pond view and wooded backdrop that provide both beauty and seclusion. A mature pecan tree offers shady afternoons and seasonal harvests, while the recently planted banana trees promise future fruit and a lush, tropical feel. There’s even plenty of space to add a pool if that’s on your wish list. This home is located in Carolina Waterway Plantation, a custom home community with great amenities including a private boat ramp to the Intracoastal Waterway, a neighborhood pool, tennis and pickleball courts, a playground, and more. Whether you're looking for quiet mornings by the water or active weekends in the sun, this community has it all. 987 Shipmaster Avenue is not just a home, it’s a lifestyle. Elegant, dreamy, and ready to welcome you home.
