Schools are a very important factor to many buyers and their families. My clients like to know which neighborhoods are closest to the Myrtle Beach Schools. Plantation Point and  Plantation Heights are  two of the closest neighborhoods to the Myrtle Beach Public Schools. They are both walking distance. These two neighborhoods are ones of convenience. You could live in either neighborhood and easily walk to grocery stores, restaurants, banks, shopping and entertainment. They are both located a very short distance to the beach as well. Plantation Point has a variety of everything from patio homes, town homes to million dollar homes on the waterway. Plantation Heights is a newer neighborhood that offers all brick homes with tons of upgrades prices ranging from 299 – 425k . If you have high school students they really do not have to drive far to get to school and this makes parents feel a little better.  Also parents who have younger children enjoy the convenience of having them so close to home.
