This custom home enjoys a desirable, central Island location with privacy and security beyond the second gate and convenient proximity to Kiawah's world-class amenities, including beach, golf, dining, shopping, and more.
A cooling canopy of palmettos, pines, and oaks frames views of Egret Pond and the 2nd green of Osprey Point Golf Course.
An aesthetically pleasing mix of gabled rooflines and attractive millwork complements the cool grey HardiePlank® exterior while a grand, brick staircase leads to a handsome entry porch and an arched front door with sidelights.
Classic interior elements such as accent columns, custom millwork, and handsome oak floors give this home timeless appeal.
Just off the foyer, the formal dining room features a trayed ceiling and easy access to the kitchen and living room.
The living room enjoys an abundance of natural light from a vaulted ceiling, a suite of second-story windows, and three sets of French doors that open directly to the rear covered porch. A fireplace with tile surround and custom built-ins adds a cozy touch.
The eat-in kitchen is fully equipped with ample cabinetry and counter space, a suite of upscale appliances, professional range hood, and desk area. A large center island houses a prep sink and bar that seats four. The adjacent breakfast room has a coffee bar and opens onto the screened outdoor living room for convenient entertaining.
The master suite, conveniently located on the first floor, has a bay window and direct access to the rear deck while the master bath offers handsome cabinetry, dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a large, walk-in shower.
Upstairs, two gracious guest rooms offer respite and privacy, each with an ensuite bath. A generously sized bonus room/office with custom built-ins can be a fourth bedroom.
A charming screened outdoor living room features a stone fireplace for year-round enjoyment while a covered porch, large rear deck, and brick patio provide numerous opportunities to enjoy the golf, marsh, and water vistas.
This home is offered fully furnished.
