Georgetown is a historic Lowcountry city on South Carolina's coast, the state's third-oldest city, offering rich history, waterfront charm, and genuine small-town warmth. Set where five rivers meet Winyah Bay, its walkable Front Street district features a scenic Harborwalk, local restaurants, shops, and beautifully preserved historic homes and landmarks. Residents enjoy boating, fishing, and easy access to nearby beaches like Pawleys Island and the seclusion of DeBordieu, along with a slower, welcoming pace steeped in maritime and colonial heritage. Homes range from historic downtown houses and waterfront properties to established neighborhoods and newer communities, often at appealing values compared to the beach islands. Charleston and Myrtle Beach are each about an hour away. If you want authentic Lowcountry living with history, waterfront beauty, and small-town character on the South Carolina coast, Georgetown offers a distinctive and increasingly discovered place to call home.
