    What's special

    Expansive ocean views that will truly take your breath away! Meticulously planned and constructed in 2008 on .39 acre, the home comprises a total of 4,102 square feet, with 5 bedrooms, each with their own en-suite bath. You will see attention to detail everywhere you look in this single owner home. From the cherry hardwood floors, cypress wood ceiling accents in the dining room, Ipe wood decks and travertine flooring in the kitchen and baths, no expense was spared when building this magnificent home on Fripp Island.The grand entry of this home prepares you for the quality you will see inside. Deep, double porches made for catching the ocean breeze greet you from the street, with a tiered yard highlighting the beautiful landscape of the lowcountry. Thoughtfully designed to take advantage of ocean views, this home boasts a reverse floor plan, with main level living, dining and kitchen on the top floor offering water views from every room. The top-of-the-line kitchen and adjacent dining area allows the main living area to have an open flow and natural lighting. This kitchen would be the envy of any chef with double Viking ovens, a gas range, warming drawer, pot filling faucet, and granite countertops that reflect hues of the ocean . There is also a stand-alone ice maker, wine cooler, and large pantry. The living space extends to the front porch off of the living room and master bedroom. The master suite is spacious with custom built-ins, and gas fireplace. The master bathroom highlights the home's quality with a large jetted soaking tub, double marble vanities, custom tile shower and walk-in closet. Each floor is accessible by an elevator. The first floor features 4 spacious bedrooms, each with en-suite, a convenient kitchenette and laundry room, as well as access to the large, 3 car garage. One bedroom is currently used as a home theatre. The garage is large enough for three cars and all other Fripp Island essentials. The patio off the garage is an excellent staging area for boating, fishing or kayak trips. There is also an outdoor shower for conveniently rinsing off the beach before heading inside. From the beautifully landscaped yard to the meticulous attention to interior details, this home was designed to feel luxurious without sacrificing practicality. Exceptional in every way, this oceanfront home on Fripp is a lowcountry dream come true.
