Listing description
Located in North Forest Beach on Hilton Head Island, this 7th-row beach home offers the rare combination of privacy, space, and rental performance just a short stroll to the sand. Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, 18 Sandpiper sits on an oversized, wooded lot (nearly double the average lot size in Forest Beach) with room to truly spread out and plenty of space to create a dream backyard, including adding a pool. A grandfathered shed on the property provides a unique opportunity and could easily be reimagined…
Your all-in monthly cost (est.)
Adjust the numbers to fit your situation
SC taxes a primary residence at a 4% ratio with a school-tax exemption — far lower than the 6% investor rate.
Freddie Mac 30-yr avg (FRED), as of 2026-06-18 — a benchmark, not your rate.
Estimated all-in monthly (with flood)
$7,970–$8,205/mo
This home sits in a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area, so flood insurance is required with a mortgage (a fact, from the FEMA zone). The $65–$300/mo above is a rough planning range, not a quote — premiums are now priced per-property. Get an exact flood quote.
This is an estimate for planning only — not a loan quote or commitment to lend. Assumes a $1,375,000 price, 20% down, 6.47% rate over 30 years, and SC owner-occupied 4% + school exemption property tax. It excludes PMI/MIP, the VA funding fee, and closing costs. For reference, the current tax on record (MLS) is about $3,701/yr — that reflects the present owner's assessment, which may differ from yours. Confirm every figure with a licensed lender.
