Can you imagine a home that is a cross between a Ralph Lauren mountain cabin and something from an article in Garden and Gun magazine depicting an incredible lowcountry hunting retreat? Well this is it -- a custom built Timberpeg home, with soaring ceilings and stunning exposed wood framing and casework. Comfortably casual, with first floor owner's suite, hardwoods on most of the main level, skylights, copper gutters, delightful den/sunroom, spacious bonus room, private second floor office, detached oversized 2-car garage with storage space above, and a super-sized carport big enough for a boat of camping trailer. The fenced-in back yard also has an adorable playhouse. Come see -- come soon!!
