This Myrtle Beach, SC area condo just sold for nearly $4M — a record high for Horry. Take a look

An oceanfront condo perched between two high rises in North Myrtle Beach dubbed the “Bridge Penthouse,” just broke a record.

The condo sold for $3,855,000, making it the most expensive condo sale in Horry and Georgetown County recorded since Multiple Listing Service (MLS) began keeping records 20 years ago. The sale far exceeds the previous record of $2,500,000, though it’s possible that some private sales were listed on MLS.

Matt Scalise, owner of Scalise Realty, has worked with the property for years and brokered the sale. Scalise’s family developed North Beach Plantation, the community featuring the “Bridge Penthouse,” so Scalise has been involved with the condo since before its 2009 construction.

“It’s been an evolution, and it’s been an interesting learning experience throughout the process and we felt like North Beach Plantation was a kind of legacy project for my family,” Scalise said.

Built in 2009, the luxury condo was listed for sale in December of 2023 for $5,000,000. Furniture, like the 12-person dining table and expansive couch in the living area, was included in the sale.

The seven-bed, seven-and-a-half-bath penthouse features 25-foot ceilings and a 5,500 square foot layout overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. A second level opens over the open-concept layout.

HOA fees for the condo total nearly $4,000 a month. One side of the condo features views of the Atlantic Ocean and the other overlooks the marsh and North Beach Plantation community.

The one-of-a-kind kitchen has a double fridge and multiple ovens and dishwashers, and each of the bedrooms has its own bathroom.

In addition to the workout facility the condo sits atop, the penthouse’s residents have access to a spa and 2-and-a-half acres of oceanfront pool amenities, including eight pools, five hot tubs, a lazy river and a swimming pool bar.
