A fresh take on coastal living—this home offers a quieter, more refined interpretation of the classic design. It's where soft sand tones meet rich wood textures, and light pours in like salt air through every window. Set within Winding River Plantation, this nearly new home brings modern ease to a timeless setting. Blonde engineered hardwood floors stretch across the main living space, echoing the natural tones of driftwood and dunes. The walls, painted a gentle sand, feel warm and sun-washed. In the kitchen, two-tone cabinetry continues the story—creamy uppers and wood-grain base cabinets that feel rooted and earthy. A bold black hood punctuates the space, pulling the whole look together with style and intention. In the great room, vaulted ceilings and a native driftwood mantel over the electric fireplace create a pretty backdrop for everyday living. Step outside to the covered porch, where views of the lush green woods offer privacy and calm. The primary suite feels like a true retreat, wrapped in soft greys and featuring a tray ceiling that adds quiet sophistication. Wake to leafy views and step straight onto the porch with your morning coffee. The en-suite bath is resort-worthy, with his-and-hers closets and a walk-in shower with dual showerheads—perfect for a slow start or a post-beach rinse. A second bedroom sits just off the foyer behind frosted-glass sliding doors—ideal for guests or a sunlit workspace. Upstairs, a third bedroom, full bath, and generous flex space offer even more room to stretch out. But the lifestyle here extends far beyond your front door. Winding River Plantation is one of the area's most coveted communities, with amenities that read like a vacation itinerary: a private beach club on Holden Beach, two marinas, a 27-hole Fred Couples-designed golf course, a fitness center, pickleball courts, walking trails, and a sparkling resort-style pool. If you've been looking for something that feels fresh & grounded - this is it.
