2200 Forest Lakes Blvd, Charleston, SC 29414

The perfect in-town, waterfront estate that feels as though you are out in the country. This gorgeous home graces one of the premier lots on Lake Dotter, also known as Long Branch Creek Lake. From the moment you drive up, you will feel at home. Situated on an oversized lot, there is a constant feeling of open space. As you walk up the path to the front door you are greeted by a large front porch perfect for enjoying the views of this beautiful neighborhood. With 120' of lake frontage, a private dock and built in pool you can experience the joy of vacation living all year round. The lake is great for fishing and pleasure boating (electric motors only). From the dock you can catch bass, catfish, trout, brimm, flounder, and even crab. Forest Lakes is a bird sanctuary community. The wooded island across the lake is owned by the adjacent West Ashley County Park and home to many species of birds. This is truly a bird-watchers paradise; common sightings include great blue herons, egrets, hawks, king fishers, hummingbirds, and cormorants. The in-ground pool completes this park-like paradise. You can sit in the pool and gaze out across the lake enjoying a vacation-like experience or float all night and star gaze. All this, and then you have the large executive home. The house has undergone dramatic renovations over the past few years. The large gourmet eat-in-kitchen is completely new including stainless steel appliances (5 burner gas stove, double wall oven, dishwasher, refrigerator and disposal), expansive silestone countertops, birch cabinets, ceramic tile floors and accent lighting. This kitchen also includes a sitting area, breakfast nook and built-in computer station. Just off of the kitchen you will find a powder room, laundry room, double car garage and back staircase. The kitchen is adjacent to the large family room, formal dining room and screened-in porch. From the porch you have panoramic views of the lush backyard, lake, marsh, and private Island. Your views are always changing but will always remain as the island can never be developed. The porch is wonderful for family dinners and relaxing. The family room has a distinctive Charleston-brick wood-burning fireplace and large windows with views of the lake. From the foyer or kitchen, walk upstairs to 4 bedrooms and 2 baths. The master bedroom is extra large and has a walk-in closet and well appointed bath. Down the hall are three additional bedrooms and bath. One of the bedrooms is the 16' x 18' FROG with 12' ceilings and 4 large storage closets. It can easily house a pool table as well as a foosball table and have room to spare. This is a home that you truly have to see to believe. Spend your evenings and weekends enjoying your property. A+ Location - Convenient to everything! Not a short sale, just a great price!
