Architecturally stunning from top to bottom, this shingle-style, Rhett's Bluff home nearly fades into its waterfront setting along the Kiawah River. Abundant windows, iron railings, multiple porches, a slate roof, and turret give this home instant curb appeal. Majestic live oaks offer privacy while a private, deepwater dock with boat lift provides instant access to Lowcountry's waterways and is positioned perfectly for viewing year-round sunsets. One of Kiawah's most history-rich communities, Rhett's Bluff is flanked by Bass Pond and the Kiawah River and offers a neighborhood pavilion and boat landing. Members-only golf, dining, fitness, and spa amenities are just a short walk or bike ride away from this central Island location, just beyond the second security gate. Timeless design is reflected in elegant detailing and upscale finishes such as porthole windows, custom, artisan-crafted copper lanterns, burnished steel and glass entry doors, wide plank hardwood and bluestone floors, custom cabinetry, coffered ceilings, and extensive custom trim and moldings throughout. From a dramatic, arched, front entry porch, the two-story foyer opens into the formal living room where a wall of floor-to-ceiling frameless windows blur the lines between land and river. A gas fireplace with granite surround and access to the rear covered porch, kitchen, and dining make this central room a much-loved gathering spot. The spacious, wrap-around kitchen offers abundant marble-topped counter space and custom cabinetry for storage. A built-in refrigerator and range hood join a suite of upscale appliances including a 6-burner range and beverage chiller for stylish convenience. Just beyond the kitchen, a family room with a gas fireplace flows into a circular morning room overlooking the Kiawah River. A guest bedroom with full bath joins a formal dining room to round out the main floor. Upstairs, the primary suite and two ensuite bedrooms each enjoy access to either a riverfront screened porch or private balcony. Overlooking the Kiawah River, the primary suite has a custom built entertainment center, his and her closets, a circular office with coffee bar, sink, and storage, and a large bath with dual vanities, soaking tub, and walk-in shower. A curved set of glass doors with transoms and sidelights open onto the screened porch. Designed with entertaining in mind, the expansive Ipe deck surrounds a heated saltwater pool and spa and outdoor grilling station. Set beneath a mature live oak, the deck offers ample room for riverside lounging and al fresco dining. The 2,264-square-foot lower level is fully conditioned with an epoxy-coated floor and accommodates parking for up to six cars plus boat storage, a workshop, play room, and extensive storage. A Kiawah Island Club Membership opportunity is available with this property.
