The airy, light-filled beachfront retreat at 4460 Sea Forest Drive offers direct access to Kiawah's wide, pristine beach and unobstructed ocean views from its bedrooms, living room, and private balcony. A premier villa with a very strong rental record, this home charms all who enter with its beach house ambience. The vaulted ceiling and large, half-moon windows in the living room stream with natural light, illuminating details from distressed wide-plank flooring and shiplap wainscoting to sisal rugs and driftwood light fixtures and lanterns--all hand-selected by an interior designer during a complete renovation in 2015. All furniture and fixtures, which were installed during the renovation, come with this turnkey property. Step inside the white front door with its classic Craftsman trim and sunny sidelight, and the sight of a wall of windows and glass doors across the villa immediately draws you to the ocean view and sounds of the surf--but on your way, you'll pass several other fine features. On your right is the immaculate white kitchen, with clean, flat-panel cabinetry with nickel bin pulls, white subway tile backsplash, pale granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances including a large French-door refrigerator, under-cabinet microwave, dishwasher, and single-basin sink with disposal. A breakfast bar offers extra seating, and a kitchen window invites sunlight and sea breezes inside--offering views from multiple sides, a rare treat in a villa. Just beyond is a delightful breakfast nook and dining area that comfortably seats six, lit by an elegant chandelier crafted of driftwood hung from the vaulted ceiling. In the living room, white built-in cabinetry lines the walls, the top shelves illuminated. On the opposite wall, wide windows topped with half-moon transoms frame the sea views on two sides. Step into the first bedroom with its soothing coastal colors, king-sized bed, and linens, and you can feel your entire body relax. The adjoining bath is like a spa, with wide mirrors, white marble countertops and trim, white flat-panel cabinetry, dual undermount sinks, shiplap wainscoting, and pale rectangular floor tile. A generously sized walk-in rainshower with frameless glass, marble tile, and handheld spray system completes the perfection. The second bedroom offers two beach-inspired twin trundle beds, nightstands, and elegant driftwood lamps for the comfort of guests. Its adjoining bath is a spotless pleasure with black-and-white retro floor tile, white cabinetry and trim, leathered granite countertop with wide undermount sink, and white-tiled shower. Additional features of this villa include a laundry room with front-loading washer and dryer, laundry sink, and plentiful storage in white floor-to-ceiling cabinetry. Overlooking Kiawah's verdant dunes and the unspoiled sands of its ten-mile beach, this villa is situated in the centrally located, highly desirable Windswept community--convenient to top-notch Kiawah Island Golf Resort amenities at Night Heron Park, including its new water park, and The Sanctuary, Kiawah's five-star hotel.
