A Coastal Condo,
Renovated Top
to Bottom
Kitchen, two bathrooms, flooring, lighting and finishes throughout a North Myrtle Beach condo, taken on as one project instead of five.
One Project,
Not Five
Most condo owners renovate in pieces. The kitchen one year, a bathroom the next, flooring whenever the budget allows. It feels safer, and it almost always costs more. Each phase carries its own mobilization, its own protection of finished areas, and its own set of transitions where new work meets old.
This unit was taken on as a single scope. The kitchen was rebuilt with shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops and a full-height tile backsplash. Both bathrooms were renovated, one with a double vanity and one with a walk-in shower behind frameless glass. Luxury vinyl plank flooring runs continuously through the living space, bedrooms and hallways, and lighting, trim and paint were carried across the whole unit rather than stopping at a doorway.
Doing it in one pass is what lets the flooring run unbroken from the entry through to the bedrooms, and what lets the kitchen, the dining bar and the living area read as one connected space instead of three rooms that were updated at different times.
Scope of Work
Kitchen
White shaker cabinetry with a full-height tile backsplash, quartz countertops, an undermount sink, and a stainless appliance package including a slide-in double-oven range under a chimney hood.
Bathrooms
Two bathrooms renovated. One with a full vanity run, quartz top and hexagon tile flooring; the other with a walk-in shower behind a frameless sliding glass door.
Flooring
Luxury vinyl plank run continuously through the living area, hallway and bedrooms. Choosing one floor for the whole unit removes the transition strips that give a phased renovation away.
Lighting & Electrical
Recessed lighting throughout, under-cabinet lighting in the kitchen, ceiling fans in the bedrooms and living area, and the outlets and switches that come with reworking a kitchen layout.
Trim, Paint & Doors
Baseboard, casing, interior doors, and paint carried across the entire unit so the finish level is consistent from the entry through to the bedrooms.
Laundry & Storage
In-unit stacked laundry integrated into the kitchen cabinetry run, keeping the appliances out of the way without giving up counter or storage space.
Materials & Finishes
Selected for Coastal UseShaker Cabinetry
Flat-panel shaker doors in white with brushed hardware. A simple profile holds up better than heavy detail in a humid coastal unit, and it keeps a small kitchen from feeling closed in.
Luxury Vinyl Plank
LVP is the practical floor for a coastal condo. It handles humidity and the traffic a rental sees far better than hardwood, and running one product throughout avoids transitions between rooms.
Tile & Quartz
Quartz countertops in the kitchen and baths, a full-height tile backsplash behind the range, and hexagon tile on the bathroom floor. All surfaces chosen to take moisture without special upkeep.
