The options are truly endless for the bonus space! Outdoor living is high on the list of requirements for most living in the Lowcountry and this home does not disappoint. A rear screened-in porch provides a nice place to enjoy morning coffee, dine alfresco or simply relax with a book. This porch also acts as a covered breezeway to access the detached garage.
