1933 Highway 348, Loris, SC 29569

Bowered and reticent at the end of a long avenue of mature live oaks and shaded by a single ancient live oak of at least 425 years of age, stands this grand southern colonial home. Bolstered by four massive columns, flanked with symmetrical windows, and topped with a Palladian pane, this home is one of a kind. Wistful and reminiscent of a world gone by, this home is conveniently nestled between Longs and Loris, yet located only fifteen miles from restaurant row and Myrtle Beach via highway 22, eighteen miles to North Myrtle Beach via Route 9 and seven miles to the quaint southern town or Loris. The house is fortunately located at the crossroads of Northern Horry County where it is opportunely close to everything via highways and away from the heavy traffic of the South Strand. This mini country estate features blooming trees and flowers during every season from mature live oaks, aromatic southern magnolias, Japanese Maples, to Camelias, trumpet vines, fragrant Carolina and Star Jasmine, Wisteria, mature rose gardens, Rose of Sharon trees, Confederate Roses, English Ivy, and various bulbs. Blueberries and blackberry bushes adorn this well-loved and well-cared for mini estate as well. This nearly two-acre lot is surrounded on three sides by empty acres which provide nearly unmatched privacy in Horry County. Inside the house, boldly stained tall baseboards, chair rail, crown molding, as well as wainscoting decorate the walls while a soaring vaulted ceiling accentuates the vastness of the great room. A winding staircase to the second floor guides the inhabitants to a wide loft which overlooks the great room and puts on eye level to the Romeo and Juliet perch, solid oak flooring, and gas insert fireplace provide the charm and elegance that one would expect from a country manor. Seven bedrooms, three full baths, a formal dining room, office with built-in shelves and an attached mother-in-law suite with separate full bath and separate entrance to the house through the carport provide ample space and privacy for your family to spread out and welcome guests for extended visits. The spacious kitchen offers two pantries, double ogee designed granite countertops and a tile backsplash. The owners' suite on the second floor features a walk-in closet as well as separate vanities with sinks from the shower and toilet room which also includes a sink. The home provides multi-generational living options with no HOA restrictions. A two-carport and 28x24 detached garage provide ample storage space for your personal cars while the long driveway provides parking space for numerous vehicles. The floored attic provides ample storage for season decorations, and built-in bookshelves, storage cabinets, and a carport storage room deliver stowage space. Unlimited boat and RV storage with separate outdoor water hookup. This is a one of a kind home and opportunity not to be missed! Welcome to your true low country colonial home in Loris, South Carolina.
