Craftsman-style home combines timeless character, modern upgrades, and peaceful pond views to create the ideal
coastal retreat. Offering 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and over 2,700 square feet of living space, this home was designed
for both everyday comfort and effortless entertaining. From the moment you arrive, the inviting curb appeal and charming front porch set the tone for what awaits inside. Fresh interior paint, new downstairs flooring, and abundant natural light create a bright and welcoming atmosphere throughout the home. The spacious living room is anchored by custom built-in bookshelves and flows seamlessly into the stunning remodeled kitchen, featuring quartz countertops with a matching backsplash, a large center island, and all-new GE Café Series appliances.

Whether enjoying your morning coffee or unwinding in the evening, the backyard offers privacy, beauty, and functionality with a newly installed decorative fence. Solar panels provide impressive energy efficiency and help keep electric bills surprisingly low for a home of this size. A new Fortified Roof was installed in 2022

golf, walking trails, marina, restaurants, and the unmatched lifestyle that St. James Plantation is known for. This is more than just a home - it's the lifestyle buyers have been waiting for.
