Built in 2019, the 5,822-square-foot residence is a showcase of Low Country elegance, combining refined architectural details with modern comforts. Designed for both relaxation and entertaining, the home features four bedrooms in the main house, with additional guest quarters above the detached three-car garage.

A stunning bayfront sunroom invites endless views of the water, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living. The expansive outdoor amenities include a multi-tiered dock with multiple decks, a fire pit, a heated bayfront pool, a grilling station and a covered dining and entertaining area with retractable screens. On the second floor, two ensuite guest bedrooms open to a private balcony overlooking the bay. An additional living area, a heated and cooled storage room, and a hidden "Speakeasy" room provide even more space for entertainment and relaxation. No detail has been overlooked, from the built-in Miele coffee bistro and Wolf gas range to the whole-home generator, water filtration system and smart automation for security and appliances. Built-in Sonos speakers, ventless gas fireplaces and dual-zone wine storage for 170 bottles further enhance the home's luxurious appeal. The private dock is equipped with a 12,000-lb. lift, accommodating boats up to 28 feet, making this property ideal for those who want to enjoy the bay to the fullest.
