Located on a private drive in the most natural of settings, set well apart from only three neighbors and sited on a tidal marsh where the Kiawah and Stono Rivers meet, the shingle style home at 216 Chinaberry Lane enjoys sweeping south-facing marsh views as well as lush water and maritime forest views to the north. Designed with high-end finishes and careful thought to family and private spaces, this six-bedroom home--with a seventh bedroom easily added--offers a guesthouse, in-deck pool, and abundant outdoor living spaces. Outside, beneath copper rooflines and gorgeous wooden porch ceilings, are three screened porches, a covered front porch, a pool deck, and two second-story sundecks with breathtaking views. The main screened porch features a striking stone fireplace, and the pool deck offers plenty of space for a summer kitchen and al fresco dining and entertaining. Inside, high ceilings, dark-stained oak hardwood floors, and extraordinary millwork await. Entering the home, a stunning 25-foot-wide living room opens before you as you stand in the wide foyer, light and bright with 12-foot coffered ceilings, fireplace, and a wall of transomed glass doors and windows leading to a screened porch and pool deck. To the left a gorgeous dark-wood bar invites family and guests to gather, and the adjacent gourmet kitchen is filled with natural light. Featuring two islands, including one with a butcher-block counter, six-burner gas cooktop, dual ovens, and stainless-steel island hood, it comes with pale marble countertops and stainless-steel GE Monogram® professional grade appliances, undercounter microwave, a wide farmhouse sink beneath a row of windows, a prep sink set into the second island, illuminated accent upper cabinetry, a pantry, and a serving credenza. A separate alcove just off the kitchen accommodates a large table with seating for eight or more. On the opposite side of the main floor lies an airy master suite with a window-lined sitting area, private screened porch accessed via French doors, and master bath with marble floors and shower tile, dual vanities, gorgeous freestanding tub, and frameless-glass walk-in shower. Visiting family and guests will be delighted by this home's luxurious bedroom suites. A spacious screened porch just beyond the dining alcove leads to a guesthouse with a separate 22-foot-wide living area and a guest suite with walk-in closet and access to a porch extending along two sides of the home. Up a set of private stairs is another guesthouse suite with a large open study. The home's light-filled main staircase and its elevator lead upstairs to a spacious family room opening onto sundecks on either side. A corner guest suite with walk-in closet and his-and-hers sinks opens onto the rear sundeck as well; the opposite corner suite, also with his-and-hers sinks, offers lovely views on three sides. It shares a full bath with another bedroom, also with verdant views in multiple directions. This level also enjoys a second laundry room, powder room, and a wet bar adjacent to the family room. Located on Kiawah's spectacular northeastern edge in The Preserve, one of the Island's most desirable neighborhoods, 216 Chinaberry Lane is offered fully furnished. Additional features of this home include impact-rated windows and doors, immaculate landscaping, and sound, security, and irrigation systems. A Kiawah Island Club Golf Membership is available with the purchase of this property.
