Description
Nestled into one of Mount Pleasant's most well-kept secret neighborhoods, Harbour Watch, this gorgeous home is situated a mere five minutes to the Ravenel Bridge and Downtown Charleston, yet exudes a feel of tranquility and privacy with its marsh front location. Lovingly maintained, you'll note that no detail was left unattended. A classic southern sitting porch welcomes you into the home which boasts a true foyer for greeting guests. Gleaming hardwood floors, multi-piece crown moulding, and plantation shutters are just a few of the upgraded custom touches found throughout. The formal Dining Room is perfect for hosting holiday dinners and could easily be converted to anything from home office to playroom, to art studio. One of the many flex spaces in this home, it can adapt and change asyour needs do. Directly across the wide gallery hall is the well appointed kitchen. A home chef's dream, this bright and open space will easily be the hub of family activity. White cabinetry, including some glass fronts for displaying stemware and pottery, are paired with white solid surface countertops and are complimented by sleek stainless steel appliances. Ideally designed, there is plenty of room for friends to perch on a stool and enjoy a glass of wine or for kids to complete homework while dinner is prepared. Enjoy everyday meals in the attached large and sunny casual dining nook, complete with remote controlled custom shades. The Living Room is an exceptional space in this home as it boasts a beautiful focal point fireplace flanked by custom built-ins. The true star of the room is the floor to ceiling wall of windows allowing an abundance of natural light and a breathtaking view of Oak trees and the marsh beyond. The home's well thought out plan provides a plethora of conveniences and storage options, with multiple closets and a pantry directly off of the main hall. A large, private guest powder room is situated just off of the foyer. While you may love the front door for greeting guests, you'll likely enter the home via the garage where you will be delighted to find a true Mud & Laundry Room as a buffer between the garage and kitchen. This large space is loaded with tons of cabinet storage, a utility sink, and houses the washer & dryer as well as a second full sized refrigerator. You"ll never mind the kids and friends dropping sandy beach towels or popping in from the pool to grab a drink! This room also provides a private back staircase to the room over the garage/4th bedroom. This oversized room is perfect for use as a teen retreat, in-law or guest suite, playroom, or man cave. With a full bathroom and large walk-in closet the possibilities are truly endless. The Owners' Suite is located on the back of the home and features a vaulted ceiling, two closets (including one large walk-in) amazing marsh views, and a generously sized, completely updated en-suite luxury bath. The spa-like bathroom boasts a private water closet with linen tower, freestanding soaker tub, large frameless glass shower, and an exceptionally long and spacious double vanity with updated fixtures. The remaining two bedroom suites are perfect for guests or children. With both large rooms featuring their own full, en-suite bathrooms and large closets (one with a walk-in that also has access to a large attic storage space), everyone will have plenty of space and privacy! As exceptional as the interior of the home is, the true beauty lies in the outdoor spaces. Lush Lowcountry flora and fauna surround the lot making it a haven for wildlife. Coupled with stunning marsh views, you'll want to enjoy morning coffee on your screened-in porch while watching Egrets hunt for breakfast in the tidally fed creek. The porch is accessible from both the kitchen and living room and boasts Ipe flooring, which is not only beautiful but extremely durable, rot and insect resistant. Off of the porch is an open air deck, large enough to host parties or just grill dinner for yourself while watching the kids and pets frolic in the fully fenced yard. The rear fence is a "living fence" allowing for unobstructed views of the marsh. Occasional glimpses of the container ships can be had and it is common to hear the coastal sound of the fog horns on the river. There are peek-a-boo views of the tops of the Ravenel Bridge and at night the lights of the bridge are visible in the distance. The neighborhood pool's entrance path is across the street from the home and you can walk or bike to the Mount Pleasant Memorial Waterfront Park. All of this and located incredibly close to everything in Mount Pleasant, the Coleman Blvd corridor, Sullivan's Island and area beaches as well as the world-class shopping and dining of Historic Downtown Charleston.
