Everybody knows somebody who lives in Ricefields, or wants to. At 23 Old Barge Drive, the community pool is just across the street from a single-level, 3-bedroom, 2-bath home with approximately 1,597 heated square feet, a shaded front porch and private backyard in Ricefields in Pawleys Island, South Carolina, an established, non-gated neighborhood. Inside, 1,597 heated square feet works surprisingly well. The living room, dining area and kitchen flow together beneath vaulted ceilings, with wood-look LVP flooring continuing through the main living spaces. The kitchen has plenty of cabinet and counter space, light blue painted cabinetry, glass-front display cabinets, a center island, raised breakfast bar and pantry. A door from the kitchen leads directly to the screened porch, and the primary bedroom has its own door there, too. The primary bedroom has plenty of room for larger furniture, along with a tray ceiling and walk-in closet. The primary bath has a long double vanity with two sinks, a garden tub and separate glass-door walk-in shower. Two guest bedrooms share a hall bath with a tub/shower combination, and one currently accommodates a separate desk/work area. The screened porch was rescreened in 2026 and has plenty of room for a dining or sitting area. From there, step out to a concrete patio and a backyard bordered by established trees and landscaping. For a house in a neighborhood, there's a good measure of privacy back here. The corner location gives you some extra breathing room along the side of the property, and an outdoor shower beside the two-car garage is handy after the pool or a day at the beach. Wood-look LVP flooring was installed in 2021, the HVAC system and thermostat were replaced in 2022, and in 2026 the driveway was replaced and the exterior doors, porches and garage door were freshly painted. And then there is Ricefields. This is a regular neighborhood in the best sort of way—still the kind of place where borrowing a cup of sugar from a neighbor doesn't sound old-fashioned. The pool across the street is one people actually use, and the west-facing riverwalk on the Waccamaw River is where people head in the evening for some of the most spectacular sunsets you'll ever get to see. HOA amenities include the pool, riverwalk, ponds and common areas, along with a bulk cable and internet package. Homeowners also have access to a boat ramp on a tidal creek leading to the Waccamaw River and Intracoastal Waterway. Public beach access on Pawleys Island is approximately two miles away. At 23 Old Barge Drive, you can walk across the street to the pool, head down to the river for sunset, or be at the beach in just a few minutes—and come home to easy, single-level living in Ricefields.

Deep water at your dock. In Heritage Plantation in Pawleys Island, this five-bedroom, five-and-a-half-bath Lowcountry home has 124 feet along the Waccamaw River and Intracoastal Waterway. The 315-foot walkway from the yard leads across the old ricefields to a covered dock house and drive-on floating dock, with approximately 20 feet of water off the dock in this area and about a four-foot tidal swing. The dock can accommodate approximately a 65-foot boat. And with the back of the property facing west across the Waccamaw, sunset here isn't an occasional bonus. It's part of every clear evening on the river. The house is equal to the setting. With 6,174 heated square feet on three levels, all served by an elevator, the great room sits at the center of the main level, with the kitchen and dining spaces extending to one side. Six octagonal rooms, custom millwork, built-ins and detailed ceilings give the house much of its architectural character. The kitchen pairs a Thermador professional range with a single-slab granite backsplash, Sub-Zero refrigeration, cabinetry to the ceiling, a main sink and a prep sink in the island. It opens to a breakfast room wrapped in views of the live oaks and the Waterway. A back kitchen and home management center add pantry storage and main-level laundry. The owners' wing spans the home from front to back, beginning with the dedicated home office on the golf-course side and ending on the river side with the primary suite. The bath has a freestanding soaking tub and oversized glass-enclosed shower, while the adjoining walk-in closet is closer to a dressing room, with extensive built-in storage, shoe storage and a large center island. French doors open to a private screened porch, where the home's geometry frames views across the pool to the Waterway. Upstairs, two guest suites each have a private bath, with one facing the Waterway and the other looking toward the golf course and pond. At pool level are two additional bedrooms and two full baths, along with a rec room and wet bar that open directly to the covered loggia and pool, creating another living and entertaining area right where the outdoor spaces begin. Outside, the covered brick loggia extends the pool-level living space, opening to a saltwater pool and broad brick terrace. A pergola defines the outdoor kitchen and fireplace area, while a separate fire pit creates another place to gather closer to the river. The landscaping has been thoughtfully layered around these spaces, complementing rather than competing with the natural grasses, cattails, wildflowers and cypress trees of the old ricefields beyond. The bulkheaded lot meets that natural landscape, with the walkway continuing across the ricefields to the covered dock house and floating dock on the Waccamaw. Even the garage was designed around how this house is lived in. Climate-controlled and with room for four or more vehicles, it has extensive built-in cabinetry for everything from golf and pool gear to what you need for a day on the boat, along with a hand-painted stamped concrete floor. A separate climate-controlled workshop adds another dedicated space. The home also has a whole-house generator and a 2022 roof. And this isn't simply a river house. It's part of Heritage Plantation, an active gated Pawleys Island community where it's easy to find your place. That might mean sunset happy hours at the marina, pickleball leagues, a standing golf game or simply getting out and enjoying the people around you. Community amenities include the deep-water marina and boat ramp, clubhouse and fitness center, pool, Har-Tru tennis courts, pickleball courts and walking trails. The Heritage Club golf course is right here in the community, with membership optional. Here, you don't have to choose between an active community and life on the water. You get both.
