## Character

        

A gated enclave of custom homes where the Intracoastal Waterway is the constant backdrop — boaters launch from private docks, and sunset views over the waterway are the neighborhood's defining characteristic.

      
    
    
          
        

## History

        

Developed in the early 2000s as the Carolina Forest district expanded, Waterway Palms established itself as the district's luxury waterway address, attracting buyers who wanted the Intracoastal lifestyle without the Grande Dunes price tier.
