Meandering through Kiawah's exclusive Vanderhorst Plantation neighborhood beyond an additional security gate and arriving at 28 Surfsong Road, residents and guests alike cannot help but be struck by this home's statuesque exterior nestled amidst exquisite landscaping of palms, ferns, and grand oaks. Reminiscent of a gracious Lowcountry estate, the traditional, Charleston-style, stucco home offers elegant exterior features including a Bluestone front walk, standing seam copper roof and gutters, as well as custom exterior wrought iron star medallions and front entry "Starburst" medallion by noted Charleston artisan Rick Avrett of Ole Charleston Forge. On the ocean side of the home, residents can enjoy breathtaking views of the sparkling Atlantic through a picturesque grouping of magnificent grand oaks which line the private boardwalk leading to the beach. A Travertine stone patio surrounds an inviting custom-heated pool; and Ipe wood decks present the ideal spaces for lounging, dining alfresco, and relishing in the stunning view. An outdoor handheld hot water shower offers further convenience after coming in from a day in the sand and sun. Upon entering, the custom Mahogany front door is just one of the indicators of the beauty and grace that define the interior, which features a spacious reverse open floor plan. A striking winding staircase leads to the home's primary living spaces on the second floor--the living and dining areas, as well as the kitchen--which features hand-scraped Peruvian Walnut floors throughout. Highlights of the living area, or Great Room, are: custom crown molding and wainscoting, gas-burning fireplace with marble surround, recessed lighting, large windows overlooking the beautiful grand oaks and ocean views, and access to a rear porch through glass-paned doors. The dining area, separated from the Great Room by a set of tasteful archways, features a beautiful, yet informal chandelier as well as access to the porch. Conveniently just a step away is the awe-inspiring kitchen, designed by Signature Kitchen and Baths of Charleston. Highlights include: Galaxy Brown polished natural stone countertops, Honey Onyx stone tile backsplash, Dual 27" Sub Zero refrigerators side by side with double freezer drawers, a Thermador 48" Pro range, Scotsman ice machine, Marvel under-counter wine fridge, two Blanco Silgranite sinks, and Brookhaven by Woodmode cabinetry. The kitchen also includes a breakfast bar, and is open to the dining and living areas, so the chef can always still be a part of the rest of the family's fun and conversation. Also located on the second floor is the luxurious master suite. The perfect spot for serene repose after a long day out on the beach or golf course, the master includes the same hand-scraped Peruvian Walnut floors as the living spaces, tall ceilings with custom crown molding and recessed lighting, Grasscloth-papered walls, large windows offering breathtaking views, and an arched doorway leading to the master bath, which features Honey Onyx stone throughout. The home's third floor features a spacious additional private guest bedroom suite, featuring Grasscloth-papered walls as well as a window overlooking the pool, live oaks, and ocean beyond. Also located on the third floor is an exercise room. Four guest bedroom suites are located on the first floor, each a personal haven in and of itself. Each bedroom features its own private bathroom, adding even more comfort and convenience to the already luxurious sleeping quarters. The central first-floor living room, dubbed the Club Room, offers further space for residents and guests to relax. Offering stunning views through a wall of windows and glass-paned doors leading to the rear deck and pool, this room features a gas-burning fireplace and a wet bar with an ice machine, sink, and under-counter fridge. Other highlights of this home's exterior and interior include: Kolbe Sterling double-hung windows and multi-point exterior doors, two laundry rooms with Maytag appliances in each, a three-stop elevator with alarm and phone, and Epoxy-coat garage floor finishing.
