This gorgeous marshfront home is situated along Bass Creek within Otter Island, a private enclave on the eastern tip of Kiawah. Otter Island feels far removed from the everyday hustle and bustle but is just a short bike ride to The Ocean Course and Members-only Beach Club and a short walk to the beach. This meticulously maintained home embraces its setting with cedar shingle siding and a copper roof in hues of the surrounding landscape. Lush landscaping, a grove of live oaks, a paver driveway, and a Charlestonian style brick walled courtyard with wrought iron gating lend this home instant curb appeal. Throughout the interior, an open floor plan flows easily between rooms with ample space for family activities, gathering with friends, or retreating for some quiet time. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the marsh and creek views with an abundance of natural light. The formal living area, which spreads across two rooms, enjoys a wall of windows overlooking the marsh, a coffered ceiling, fireplace with stone and wood surround, and access to a rear covered porch. The newly renovated kitchen has ample custom cabinetry with marble and walnut countertops, a suite of upscale, stainless steel appliances, and a center island with wine cooler, prep sink with water filtration system, and seating for four. A vaulted ceiling with beadboard paneling and two stories of bay windows complete the adjacent dining area. Just beyond, the family room with built-in cabinetry and French doors opens onto the screened summer porch, which extends the living space for year-round enjoyment. This gracious porch features a brand new outdoor kitchen with a Thermador® hood and exhaust fan, custom cabinetry, a new gas grill, and custom countertop and backsplash. Custom wainscoting and a coffered ceiling with shiplap inlay enhance the first-floor master suite, which has direct access to a rear covered porch. Decorated in warm hues reflective of the marshlands, the master bath offers dual vanities, a walk-in curbless shower, soaking tub, and marble flooring. The highlight of the upper level is a shiplap, stained cherry wood vaulted ceiling that frames the great room. This space with custom built-ins, a fully equipped kitchenette and wet bar, coffee bar, wine cooler, refrigerator drawers, and custom cherry cabinetry can be used as a media room or fourth bedroom suite with a full bath and closet space. The room has direct access to a large deck overlooking the marsh and Bass Creek. Also on the upper level are two large guest suites, each with private baths. One guest room opens onto the rear deck overlooking the marsh. The porches and decks offer long views of the marsh and Bass Creek and a front row seat for dazzling sunsets all summer long. The lower level of the home offers an additional 950 square feet of parking space and storage as well as an elevator that reaches all floors. A Kiawah Island Club Membership is available with the purchase of this property.
