Tucked away in a quiet gated community on Johns Island just minutes from the conveniences of Charleston, this elegant marshfront retreat, set beneath a canopy of graceful oaks is captivating on curb appeal alone. The classic design is timeless, tabby walkways and breezy wraparound piazzas beckon you inside to the warmth of a home designed for both comfort and celebration. Formal living and dining rooms gently nudge you to the grand, open, and airy family room, breakfast area, and kitchen. This roomy yet cozy entertaining space extends onto the spacious back porch overlooking majestic oaks, marshland and its graceful birds, an ipe tidal dock leading to the creek that separates your property from the community's own private island, and sunset views with ever-changing hues shifting...beautifully with the seasons and the tide. As the sunset melts into the horizon, so too will your cares melt away. Designed with entertaining in mind, the home offers a seamless blend of elegant gathering spaces and private retreats thoughtfully laid out over three levels. The primary suite is located on the main level which can be accessed from the ground level by stairs or an elevator. Guests are treated to their own private upstairs suites behind library walls (four bedrooms on this level). They may never want to leave. The ground level, which has access to the side garden, screened-in porch, backyard (including the covered spa), garages, and carport, has been thoughtfully finished into a downstairs den, ideal for a listening room, mancave, home gym, office--anything! This floor includes a bathroom and storage galore! Those amazon and impulse purchases along with items you no longer need but can't bear to throw away, will gladly disappear, tidily organized behind closed doors. Winding down is easy here: relax on the back porch, enjoy a glass of wine in the spa, walk out onto the dock with your bird-watching binoculars, or take the golf cart to the neighborhood's island, all the while thinking, "I really am too blessed to be stressed." You don't stress about the summer heat as all HVAC units have recently been replaced, appliances including the refrigerator, washer, and dryer, are just a year old, the upcoming surgery will be no sweat with that elevator of yours, you don't even worry about the storm that's coming! Nope, not you--you've got a whole house generator! It is a party house after all. You can't help but notice how lovingly maintained and thoughtfully enhanced this property is. A retreat that is accessible just minutes from the boat landing and John's Island's best restaurants, farmstands, and sites. This property is a haven for beauty and unforgettable gatherings, ready to welcome its next chapter.
