A deep-water sanctuary with a private boardwalk looking out to the river, dock and a boat lift. This one-of-a-kind property blends timeless architecture with natural beauty and refined privacy, all just a short drive from Charleston.As you approach the residence down the winding driveway, you're greeted by an elegant limestone fountain of two dolphins mid-dance, setting the tone for the artistry that awaits. The main house, inspired by the iconic Frank Lloyd Wright, and designed to be reminiscent of a ship's hull, is a custom-built, over 6,800 square foot showpiece that harmonizes with the riverfront setting while offering the finest in modern luxury. Stepping into the main house, you enter to a dramatic foyer featuring travertine tile, an inlaid dolphin medallion, and a sweeping handcrafted wrought iron staircase. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the interiors with light and showcase panoramic river views, balanced with high mahogany arched ceilings. Designed for both grand entertaining and intimate moments, the main level includes a huge two story room divided into two separate sitting areas, piano room, and a richly appointed office. A double-sided fireplace connects elegant living spaces, and an elevator ensures effortless access to every floor. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream, with custom cabinetry, top-of-the-line appliances, and river views that inspire culinary creativity. The expansive dining room offers panoramic views across the water as well. The primary suite is a serene escape, complete with a private sitting room, fireplace, and massive walk-in closet. Additional spaces include a third-floor retreat, a massive walk-in cedar closet wing, and a private guest wing with its own dedicated entrance, consisting of a living area, kitchenette, bedroom and full bathroom. Continue following the covered walkway to a home gym or secluded office. The main house also includes three attached garage spaces below, for easy parking. Complementing the main home are two beautifully designed guest structures. The dockside, elevated, hardiplank siding, guest house offers 2,100 square feet, with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a full kitchen, two screened in porches and decks, and its own two-car garage, all just steps from the water. A third building offers a large two-bedroom guest suite with kitchenette, situated above a four-bay garage. Outdoors, the estate is a horticultural haven. A large majestic formal garden, heated and cooled greenhouse with misting system, potting shed, and fully irrigated grounds sit beneath a canopy of majestic oaks, towering pines, camellias, and azaleas. Every inch of the grounds reflects the same careful attention to detail as the interior spaces. Dance of the Dolphins is more than a home it's a rare legacy property where architectural integrity meets the tranquility of the Lowcountry's most coveted deep-water setting. A true celebration of craftsmanship, privacy, and natural splendor. For the car enthusiast there are a total of 9 garage bays.
