Overview
Stunning tidal Creek home that offers the best of all worlds: Close to the ocean, close to downtown Charleston & equipped with an extensive dock on a tidal creek that allows easy access to the ocean.This classic ""Low Country"" home boasts an impressive list of upgrades from the huge dock on Seaside Creek that has eight feet of water at high tide, to the custom elevator that serves all three floors of the home. From the gleaming hardwood floors throughout most of the home, to the amazing gourmet kitchen and the private guest suite at ground level.Entering this home on the middle floor you are greeted by the gorgeous open plan living room that looks out over extensive decks to the creek. On the left side of the living room there is a custom fireplace surrounded by built in cabinets and book shelves. Sliders from the living room and a door from the open eating area lead out onto the large second level deckOff to the right the amazing ""Gourmet"" kitchen features endless cabinets, granite counter tops throughout, a gas cook top set in a custom built island, built in wall oven and custom tiled back splash, the kitchen opens out onto the sunny area where the family ""Chef""can serve the family. It also features a bay window with a cozy window seat that overlooks the creek with myriad birds and even the occasional dolphin.To the right, you pass the convenient guest powder room and enter the large Master Bedroom suite which has a very tasteful, bathroom with a huge whirlpool tub and sliders to the deck allowing stunning views down Seaside Creek.As you ascend the stairs you will be amazed by the large, open loft area with two nice sized guest bedrooms and a full bathroom opening off. The loft area has delightful views of the fenced back yard leading to the dock and also from the large window at the front. There are sliding doors opening from the loft area out to the deck which allow amazing views of the surroundings.Going back downstairs, there is a door from the kitchen that leads you down to the ground floor, double garage and the private guest suite comprising a pleasant bedroom,with sliders to the outside patio, a full bathroom and a sunny sitting room/office.This area could become a great ""Man Cave""The elevator is accessed from the ground floor patio, the living room deck and the third floor deck outside the loft area. The elevator is equipped with many safety features and allows easy access to all floors of the house.There is an extensive garage on the ground floor that will easily accommodate two cars and is accessed from the side of the house.The downstairs, private suite is heated and cooled by a separate, split unit.Special** If you are a boater, leave your dock on Seaside Creek,journey through Stevens Sound, and wave as you go by the Morris Island Lighthouse on your way out to the Ocean. If boating is not your thing, then just drop your fishing line off your dock and look for flounder, red fish, plenty of bait fish or just play with the Dolphins as they swim by. And don't let your friends know, but you can catch your own shrimp.or dig up some oysters from the many ""beds"" along the river.another Plus:The current owners have utilized the bedrooms and sitting area above the lovely living room as their Mother-In-Law suite; as she has it all at her fingertips and with the elevator, has freedom of movement when ever she wants to..Just can't get any better than this..
