Only four units per floor, and every single one faces the Atlantic
Hamilton sits at 195 South Dunes Drive within Somerset, the six-building oceanfront section of gated Litchfield by the Sea that also includes Cambridge, Warwick, Fordham, Paget, and Whitney Parrish. Built in 1995 with Bermuda-inspired Caribbean colors and tropical architecture, Hamilton is the smallest building in Somerset: just 20 total units, four per floor across five stories.
Every unit in the building faces directly toward the ocean, an unusual guarantee among oceanfront condo buildings where many units typically face a courtyard or parking area instead. Units run three bedrooms, three bathrooms, at roughly 1,600 square feet, with balcony access from both the living room and primary bedroom.
The Taylor Keenan Team currently represents a top-floor Hamilton unit, 195 South Dunes Drive Unit 502, listed at $1,150,000 with direct Atlantic views from the great room, dining area, and primary suite.
Unlike many oceanfront buildings where some units face a courtyard or parking lot, all 20 Hamilton units look directly out over the pool and Atlantic.
Just four units per floor means less hallway traffic and a quieter, more residential feel than larger Somerset buildings like Fordham.
Current rental listings advertise a zero-minute walk from Hamilton to the sand, right next to the Litchfield by the Sea beach access.
Ground-floor units include a private staircase straight down to the pool deck, skipping the elevator entirely.
Life at Hamilton centers on its private beachfront pool and direct beach access, with the newly remodeled Litchfield by the Sea oceanfront clubhouse a short walk away. Fishing enthusiasts can cast a line at the covered pier on Osprey Lake or visit "The Overlook" on the salt marsh, with its floating dock, without leaving the resort.
Litchfield by the Sea sits about 25 miles from Myrtle Beach's attractions and roughly 70 miles from historic Charleston, making both reasonable day trips for Hamilton owners who want a change of scenery.
