Our South...

Today is February 1, 2012 and the temp is 64 with sunshine and blue skies.  As I look around I am surrounded by silhouettes of the south, spanish moss draping the trees,  birds happily feeding at bird feeders, golfers on the greens and so many other sights.

Yesterday we had an Open House at one of our new listings, 642 Tyson Drive in Pawleys Island. 

642 Tyson Drive - Hagley Estates

This great four bedroom, two bath home has living space for all! It's priced to move at $254,900.00 and we feel sure we'll be putting a "SOLD" sign out soon.  Our turnout was great yesterday and the feedback from the agents that participated was positive. We're confident we'll get this house sold soon.  But one of the special touches of the south in February is going out in the yard and picking beautiful camellias to put in a vase on the counter.  It's the small things of living in the lowcountry that speak to me.

Amanda's husband, Bruce Gallup,  fixed us a delish meal of Chicken Pilau, to serve for lunch
another special southern dish.  It was fun to share with our northern agents, now working in South Carolina,  how this is prepared and especially to see how much they enjoyed it!  This is a recipe, not Bruce's (that's a secret!) but this one will give you an idea of how it's prepared...http://southernfood.about.com/od/ricerecipes/r/bl91029a.htm




In February 2010 we were blessed with an unusual snow on the 13th.  I walked around Murrells Inlet that day and took pictures that are still some of my most treasured memories.




Today I will have the pleasure of walking around Huntington Beach State Park, http://huntingtonbeachsc.org/ looking at the waterfowl as they winter here or pass through and enjoy this beautiful day.  And of course I can't miss out on this view...


Soon spring will be here and "Our South..." will be renewed with totally alive!  But it's so hard to complain or not appreciate what we take for granted every day. 

We can share all of this with you!  We love it here and would love to introduce you, we're just a phone call away.  So many great deals...like this oceanfront foreclosure:


Five bedrooms, three and half baths that's being offered for $740,000 with an impressive rental history and is being sold "as is" but is in great condition! Very little will have to be done to get it up to speed for the season.

Or this creekfront home in Pawleys Plantation, this home is a short sale with a bank approved price that is outstanding!




We have so many incredible buying opportunities now!  Amanda and I would love to talk real estate with you and we're only a phone call away.  Call us!
