Iris & Howard Real Estate

506 Fernwood Rd., Murrells Inlet, SC 29576

Overview:

Built in 2023 by respected local builder Mike Poulin, this modern Lowcountry home was crafted with intention — durability, flow, and future flexibility at the forefront. Warm wood accents, vaulted ceilings, and clean coastal lines create a timeless aesthetic, but it’s the connection to the outdoors that truly defines this property. From the moment you step through the front door, your eyes are drawn straight through the living space to the expansive creek views framed by the back windows and sliding doors. This home was designed so the water is always part of the experience. Whether you’re cooking in the kitchen, relaxing in the living room, or stepping outside to breathe in the salt air. Set within the highly sought-after Mt. Gilead community, this is one of the newest homes ever offered for sale in the neighborhood. New construction here is rare, and opportunities like this almost never hit the market. The lifestyle is what makes it unforgettable. Spend evenings gathered around the fire pit, mornings under the gazebo with coffee and a breeze off the water, and weekends hopping on the boat from your backyard for a sunset cruise through Murrells Inlet. This is the kind of waterfront living people dream about: effortless, peaceful, and truly priceless. Homes like this don’t come along often in Mt. Gilead. This is your chance to own a modern inlet retreat built for the way coastal life is meant to be lived. House is pre-wired for a Generac generator and piped for outdoor kitchen. Low voltage wiring throughout the entire property and wired for smart home system. Media room located under stairwell with security cameras. Full bar setup on the back porch with ice maker and dual tap system. Additional plumbed bathroom next to the gazebo with a half bath with a toilet and sink that is not included in the bedroom/bathroom numbers on the listing.
