JESSICA HALL
Where coastal beauty meets architectural brilliance, this extraordinary estate in Myrtle Beach’s coveted Dunes Cove neighborhood offers a lifestyle defined by elegance, serenity, and unparalleled luxury. Nestled on over three lush, landscaped acres, this private, gated estate is a true sanctuary, seamlessly integrating contemporary design with the calming allure of its lakefront setting.
As you approach the property, the rhythmic sound of the ocean in the distance and the soft rustle of the coastal breeze through the towering old-growth trees greet you. The winding driveway curves gently past manicured lawns and lush gardens, leading you to the grand porte-cochère. The sight of the formal English garden, meticulously arranged with bursts of color and perfectly trimmed hedges, offers a sense of timeless refinement. The setting feels like an invitation to a life where every moment is imbued with tranquility.
Inside, the estate spans an impressive 9,900 square feet, but despite its grandeur, it remains intimately connected to its natural surroundings. Sunlight pours through expansive windows, flooding the open-plan living spaces with warmth and casting dappled shadows that shift as the day progresses. Everywhere you look, panoramic views of Dunes Lake shimmer in the distance, drawing your eyes outward and creating a seamless connection between the interior and exterior. Imagine starting your mornings here, sipping coffee in the family room as the soft morning light reflects off the water, or stepping onto the all-season porch, where the scent of jasmine and salt air mix as you settle in beside the outdoor fireplace for a quiet evening.
The heart of the home is the chef’s kitchen, where culinary enthusiasts can immerse themselves in an environment designed for both function and beauty. The polished surfaces of sleek countertops gleam, while high-end appliances hum quietly in the background, waiting to be put to use for intimate dinners or grand celebrations. The kitchen opens onto the family room, creating a space where life unfolds naturally, from cooking together to gathering with friends around the oversized island. Just beyond, the porch beckons with its fully equipped outdoor kitchen, perfect for enjoying long summer evenings as the sun sets over the lake, casting a warm glow over the estate.
On the upper level, two private primary bedroom suites await, each designed to be a personal retreat. The luxury of stepping into a plush, ensuite bath at the end of the day, the feel of marble floors underfoot, and the serene views from your private balcony are daily reminders of the elegance that surrounds you. One suite offers an even more dramatic escape, with a spiral staircase that ascends to a rooftop observation deck. From here, you can watch the sun rise over the ocean, the colors reflecting off the still lake waters, or gaze at the stars under a velvet night sky. It’s a space made for quiet moments of reflection or hosting a moonlit gathering, with views that stretch out to the Dunes Golf Course and beyond.
Outside, the estate continues to surprise and delight. The scent of freshly cut grass mingles with the cool breezes coming off the water, inviting you to explore the expansive outdoor areas. A large pool sparkles in the sun, the perfect place to spend a warm afternoon. Tiered gardens cascade down towards the lake, where a stone seawall and private dock invite you to embrace lakeside living. Whether you enjoy boating, fishing, or simply lounging by the water’s edge with a glass of wine, the lakefront becomes an extension of your home—a place where the tranquil sounds of the water create a peaceful backdrop for life’s most relaxing moments.
For those who appreciate the finer details of a resort-like lifestyle, the estate offers a synthetic putting and chipping green, perfect for practicing your short game before heading over to the adjoining historic 13th green of the private Dunes Golf & Beach Club. It’s an exclusive touch that reinforces the sense of privacy and privilege that defines this extraordinary property.
The estate also includes two guest houses, each designed with the same level of care and sophistication as the main residence. Imagine welcoming family or friends to their own private retreat, where they can enjoy all the comforts of home without compromising the estate’s sense of peaceful seclusion. Every detail of the property has been thoughtfully considered, from the luxurious guest accommodations to the carefully curated landscape, creating an environment that feels both grand and intimate.
9400 Lake Drive offers an immersive living experience where every aspect of life is elevated. Mornings begin with soft sunlight reflecting off the lake, afternoons are filled with the cool breeze by the pool or on the water, and evenings unfold under a canopy of stars. For those in search of refined luxury and tranquility, this estate provides a once-in-a-lifetime chance to turn that dream into reality. Remarkably, the property is listed at $1.5 million below its MAI appraisal value, presenting an extraordinary opportunity to own a home that perfectly blends luxury, exclusivity, and value.
Here, the lines between indoor and outdoor living blur, allowing you to fully embrace the beauty and serenity of lakeside living. Each moment is an invitation to experience the ultimate in comfort, elegance, and natural beauty—a sanctuary where time slows down and life is lived to its fullest. This is a home where you don’t just live—you truly thrive.
