242 Old House Ln, Dewees Island, SC 29451 - For Sale

This gorgeous island home was designed by the architect as an airy sanctuary for the lucky homeowner. With lofty ceilings and exposed beams, the fully furnished home fills you with a sense of peace from the moment you enter the front door and get a glimpse of the marsh and waterway beyond. A variety of screened and unscreened porches provide a seamless transition from indoors to outdoors. With careful attention to green design, every room has been sited to take advantage of views and natural light. The first floor boasts incredible storage, a den with half bath, a laundry area, a wide screened porch, and two spacious bedrooms with a Jack and Jill bath. There's even a double long twin bunk under the stairs, with drawer storage for linens. Wide, airy steps lead to the main living floor on the top level. A full-sided Murphy bed and built-in desk allows one room (with its own beautifully appointed bathroom) to function easily as an office or fourth bedroom. The master bedroom has walk-in closets, a spa-like bathroom with lots of natural light, glass, wood, and slate, and plenty of room for a sitting area. The kitchen has a cozy settee for breakfasts with views of the marsh, solar-tube lighting, and a separate butler's pantry. The family room steps down a level to make the ceiling seem even higher, with spectacular sunsets off the wide deck. A second porch off the kitchen could house a grill or provide another dining area. Built in shelves everywhere lend a custom touch, and high end appliances are the norm. Both floors in the main house are accessible by elevator. There is even a separate "tree house" with it's own hvac system which could be another bedroom, a yoga or art studio, or private retreat. This is luxury family living on pristine Dewees Island, accessible by private ferry. Home comes fully furnished (a few personal items don't convey), with two golf carts. Tons of extras: separate ice maker, geothermal heat, extra fridge, vacuum system, exterior lighting, owners closets, and proven rental hi
