Sunset Beach Homes with Access to Intracoastal Waterway

Sunset Beach Homes with Access to Intracoastal Waterway

Our Intracoastal Waterway runs all the way from Winyah Bay to Cape Fear River but really the Intracoastal Waterways run all up and down the East Coast. This 3,000 mile inland waterway consists of natural inlets, saltwater rivers, bays, sounds and canals. This navigable route along it’s length opens to the sea in several places but really protects these inlands from travel on the open sea. 

In Sunset Beach, the Intracoastal waterway splits the town in half. We have so many inlets and sloughs that a waterfront home is pretty standard but there are homes that are specifically on the waterway, the majority of these are on the north side (west side) of town. 

 The Intracoastal Waterway stretches from the Oyster Bay golf link the highway 904 in Sunset Beach.  Shoreline Drive runs east and west directly through town parallel to the waterway. There are many homes off of this main road with large, long docks stretching out into the waterway.  There are many lots still available as well for custom building if you’re looking to build your dream home on the waterway. Half acre lots are around $80,000 – $600,000. Quite a range, yes, but it all depends on utilities, view and accessibility.

Existing resale homes or between a $400,000 and $850,000. Most of these waterway homes feature beautiful view and a boaters or fisherman’s paradise. Select homes feature a 200 foot to 300 foot pier over waterway with  covered fixed dock and floating dock, boat lifts and  aluminum ramp. 

Also, most of these homes sit on lots of at least 1/3 – 1/2. Many are over 1 acre. The more land, obviously higher costs but much of the land tends to be marsh leading out over the waterway. 

Not all homes have docks, however. Many are simply waterfront properties and work well for those that appreciate the view but have no desire to maintain a dock or water vessels.

Tips for Buying a Home in Fall

by 1 Comment

Fall is just around the corner. Maybe you are thinking about starting your home search as soon as the busyness of summer dies down ( or maybe you just want to enjoy your summer days as long as you can). Here are some tips for buying a home in the fall.

The MarketTips for Buying a Home in Fall

Home values typically see a slower rate of appreciation beginning in August. This is not true of all markets though so be sure to check with your experienced local agent about current market conditions in the area you want to buy.

Limited Selection

The peak selling season in most areas is the Spring. So homes that were put on the market have sold or sellers are frustrated and may take their home off the market to wait for next year as not to be burdened with the extra work of selling during the holidays.

More Negotiation Possibility

Homes that have been on the market since spring may have sellers more motivated to negotiate a lower price on their home. Sellers that are determined to sell their home will keep them on the market but know they may need to entertain a lower offer and come down in asking price a bit.

Maintenance

Fall is actually a great time to see how a home truly holds up during inspection time. The weather in fall turns a little wetter and stormier. This is a good time to see if there are any leaks or concerns in the structure of the home. It is also a good time to see how much the homeowner takes care of the landscaping and if there is proper drainage.

If you are looking for a better deal on a home and a truer look into the home’s condition fall is a good time to buy a home.
