As you enter Litchfield Plantation through the security gate you drive down the Avenue of Oaks, lined with centuries old Angel Live Oaks trees adorned with Spanish Moss. It is one of the most impressive entrance drives in the south. At the end of the drive, you see the original Plantation home built in 1740. It is available for use by the homeowners and is a very popular site for various social functions. Your new single level home in Litchfield Plantation is constructed of stone and Hardie Plank plus Leaf Guard gutter covers were installed to provide an extremely low maintenance exterior. A large, screened Lanai with a ceiling fan overlooks the fenced backyard which has plenty of space for the whole family and pets. Entering the home, you are immediately impressed with the very creative, open floor plan with nine-foot trey ceilings and eight-foot doors throughout the home. To your left is the open dining room large enough for a dining table for family and friends. The living room is centered around a propane gas fireplace and mounted TV. Engineered Hardwood flooring flows seamlessly throughout the living, dining and kitchen areas. The kitchen is a chef’s delight with a spacious work island, large granite countertops, nice pantry, stainless steel appliances and a long breakfast bar. The owner’s ensuite also has a trey ceiling with fan, two windows providing plenty of natural light and two walk-in closets providing space. The bath offers granite countertops with a double vanity and a ceramic tile step in shower with seat. There are two guest bedrooms that share a full bath plus a guest ensuite with a walk-in closet and private full bath. The laundry room and a coat closet are conveniently located just outside the entrance to the two-car garage. The community swimming pool and clubhouse location provides a breathtaking view of the abandoned rice fields. The Litchfield Plantation was established in 1710 with a land grant from King George of England to Thomas Hepworth. Litchfield Plantation was a working rice plantation through the mid-1800s and at its height of production produced a million pounds of rice called, “Carolina Gold” per year. The Plantation house sits atop the banks overlooking the original canal system that allowed the rice to reach the Waccamaw River for transport to Georgetown and on to Europe. Today the plantation is being developed as a master-planned residential community. Residents of Litchfield Plantation have full access to a private oceanfront beach house on Pawleys Island with private parking. The Plantation also has a privately owned marina on the Intra-Coastal Waterway for excellent boating opportunities. The Litchfield Plantation is located just four miles away from Brookgreen Gardens, the largest outdoor sculpture garden in the world, and Huntington Beach State Park, a protected natural oceanfront park featuring the famous Atalaya Castle. Myrtle Beach, one of the country's top tourist destinations, is only a 20 miles to the north and historic Charleston is just 70 miles to the south. Make this part of South Carolina your new destination to create your own treasured family memories.
