601 Hillside Dr. N #3704, North Myrtle Beach, SC 29582

Beautifully updated 3BR/2BA lakefront condo in gated Ocean Keyes – Just blocks from the beach! This rare first-floor lakefront condo in the desirable Ocean Drive section of North Myrtle Beach offers direct, unobstructed views of the water—something you won’t find often in this community. Thanks to its slightly elevated position, you can enjoy those gorgeous lake views without giving up the ease and convenience of ground-floor living. One of the standout features is the enclosed balcony, now a climate-controlled sunroom that expands your living space and provides the perfect place to relax and enjoy the scenery. From here, you can watch ospreys, herons, and other wildlife, and even step out directly to the lake area through a private door. Because this unit is one of the two central condos in the building, the sunroom is twice the size of most others in Ocean Keyes—adding both comfort and value. This well-maintained three-bedroom, two-bath residence is being sold fully furnished and accessorized, with the exception of a few items. It has been lightly rented and primarily used as a second home, so it's in excellent condition throughout. The HVAC system was replaced about three years ago. A new refrigerator was installed this spring, and the range is brand new in 2024. Flooring and most of the furnishings have been updated within the past four years. The open layout offers a spacious feel, perfect for entertaining or everyday living. The main living areas feature luxury vinyl plank flooring, while the bedrooms have new carpet. The master bath has updated tile and dual sinks. Each room features a ceiling fan for added comfort, and the property offers a full kitchen and in-unit washer and dryer for added convenience. Another bonus is that the purchaser of this condo also gains ownership of two exterior storage spaces, one of which is a large, deeded storage closet—something most units in this complex do not have. Ocean Keyes is a gated, upscale community with resort-style amenities that include six outdoor pools, hot tubs, two community centers, tennis and pickleball courts, a fitness center, and multiple gas grill stations. It’s located just a few blocks—or a short golf cart ride—from the beach. You’re also just around the corner from Ocean Drive’s vibrant Main Street, known for its restaurants, shopping, festivals, and famous shag dance clubs. Barefoot Landing, Tanger Outlets, and other top attractions are only minutes away by car. The HOA covers water, sewer, cable, internet, pest control, and building insurance. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, a second home, or a vacation rental investment, this condo offers the perfect combination of location, features, and value.
