371 South Dunes Dr. D-16

The beach is a 60-second walk from this door. A wrap-around covered porch faces the ocean, and two private balconies are on the marsh side. This four-bedroom, three-bath condo at Captains Quarters in Litchfield by the Sea, in Pawleys Island, offers 1,983 heated square feet and 2,499 square feet total, single-level living and ocean views. D-16 is on the first floor, so it’s one flight down, past the pool complex and onto the boardwalk to the beach — no elevator required. Four-bedroom condos are not as commonly available throughout Litchfield by the Sea, and D-16 has all four bedrooms on one level — no interior stairs and no bedrooms on another floor. The great room, dining area and primary bedroom all open to a wrap-around covered porch that changes as you walk it — the pool at one end, the dunes and the ocean at the other. Both are a hop, skip and a jump away, and that easy back-and-forth is what owners and guests come back for. The open kitchen has a work island, raised breakfast bar, pantry and stainless appliances. The split-bedroom plan gives the primary suite its own side, with a tray ceiling, walk-in closet and bath with double sinks, walk-in shower, garden tub and separate water closet. Two guest bedrooms have private balconies — one facing the sunset side and another toward Charlestowne Grant. The fourth is adjacent to a full bath with double sinks that also opens to the hallway. Much of the expensive work has already been done inside D-16 and throughout Captains Quarters. The HVAC was replaced in 2025, range and microwave in 2024, and Coretec luxury vinyl plank and tile run throughout — no carpet. Association improvements include the roof in 2018, building windows and doors in 2015–2016, and pool-complex resurfacing in 2025. For a condominium buyer, that history matters: meaningful improvements have been addressed along the way rather than left for another day. Captains Quarters offers concrete-and-steel construction and under-building parking. D-16 has stayed in the same family since new — a beach place passed between family members as generations made memories here. Captains Quarters amenities include two free-form pools, a hot tub, cabana with covered seating and restrooms, picnic and grilling areas, ground-floor beach-gear storage, an assigned covered parking space and elevator. Landscaped pathways wind through coastal plantings against Litchfield by the Sea’s established dune system. Litchfield by the Sea ownership also includes private beach access, the Beach Club and oceanfront deck, tennis and pickleball, fishing and crabbing docks, and paved walking and biking paths. D-16 is offered furnished and equipped, so bring your bathing suit and boogie board and start enjoying Litchfield by the Sea. Short-term rentals are permitted, with an established rental history. Those records and the current booking calendar are available.
