Seabrook Plantation is one of the newer communities in North Myrtle Beach. This incredible neighborhood stands on the site of the old Robbers Roost golf course created by Russell Breedon, which was one of the first 12 courses on the Grand Strand, opening in 1969. As the number of courses in the area grew and popularity of the older courses declined, developers recognized the potential of the lush landscape and, in 2014, Seabrook Plantation was established.

Situated between Ocean Drive and Cherry Grove Beaches, the exclusive homes in this gated community have an ideal location. The entrance to Seabrook is on Highway 17 next to the brand new Coastal North Town Center shopping complex with several restaurants, a Publix grocery store, Hobby Lobby and about 15 other retail stores.

The new homes in Seabrook are a mixture of custom homes and several neighborhoods of upscale designs by well-known builders such as DR Horton and a local builder known as "Ellie".

One of the most sought after communities in Little River, there are a wide variety of homes and styles available, with prices from $150,000 to $500,000 plus. Many houses are dignified brick constructions. Choose a newly built residence or older home with 3 to 5 or more bedrooms and sizes ranging from 1600 square feet ranch styles to over 4000 square feet classic styles. The Woodbury development at the entry to River Hills features some of the more fashionable residences with large lots, scenic views of the greens, swimming pools and more.

Homes for Sale in Aberdeen Country Club



Often thought of as the more affluent area of the Grand Strand, North Myrtle Beach is a favorite destination for people looking for a family friendly atmosphere, amazing beaches, and extraordinary dining, shopping, and entertainment experiences.  Not to mention great golfing opportunities.

“Shag” dancing in the sand to great beach music was born here on Ocean Drive in the 50’s when rock and roll was young.

Whether you are looking for a carefree condo lifestyle on the beach or prefer a single family home, the posh communities of North Myrtle beach have much to offer.

Aberdeen, once known as Buck Creek, presents 3 remarkable courses called The Meadows, The Highlands, and The Woodlands. Designed to resemble the Royal Aberdeen Golf Club, the course has a “Scottish Flair,” surrounded by pine and cypress trees to provide a serene, peaceful ambiance which spills out into the lavish community that surrounds its greens.

Aberdeen homes are predominantly ranch style with vinyl siding and have lovely views of the greens or a variety of creeks and ponds throughout the community. Many feature fireplaces, vaulted and trey ceilings, Florida rooms, Jacuzzi tubs, large windows and screened porches. The majority of houses are 3 bedroom/2 baths with prices ranging from $250,000 to $300,000 but there are some smaller houses with markedly lower prices. Affordable HOA fees help maintain the landscaping, community pool and the clubhouse.
