28 Sheffield Avenue, Beaufort, SC 29907
What's special
Waterfront living on Cat Island, with a pool at the water's edge and the kind of layout that works as easily for a quiet Tuesday as it does for a house full of company. Inside, heart pine floors run through a light filled living and dining room crowned by a dramatic vaulted ceiling. The kitchen is built for people who cook, anchored by a Sub-Zero refrigerator and a Dacor gas range, and it opens to a family room with a fireplace -- which in turn opens to the screened porch and pool beyond. The main-floor primary suite means you never have to take the stairs. Additionally, there is a guest room with an en suite bath on the main floor, as well as a formal powder room and a second half bath near the utility room. Upstairs, two generous bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath. A large utility and mudroom handles the sandy shoes and wet towels that come with waterfront life. The screened porch sits waterfront, steps from the pool, with a covered loggia overlooking the water and built-in seating wrapping the pool's perimeter. Mature, beautifully maintained landscaping is supported by a full irrigation system. A metal roof and gravel drive give the place its Lowcountry character, and a detached two-car garage includes a room above, perfect for use a home office, gym or TV area. Cat Island offers winding, oak-lined streets is the home of The Sanctuary Golf Club. Club membership offers dining, tennis, golf and a pool. Membership is optional. Minutes away are historic downtown Beaufort and its waterfront park as well as Lady's Island shopping & schools.
