This is your chance to own a stunning oceanfront estate located on the beautiful beaches of Kiawah Island. The property comes with a special Kiawah Island Club membership, which includes golfing privileges. Sitting on a private 1.03-acre beachfront lot, this luxurious home features a variety of amenities including a personal pool and a private boardwalk to access Kiawah Island’s 10 miles of untouched shoreline. Designed by acclaimed Charleston architect Mitch LePlante, this home is a true architectural gem. Large transom-topped windows from floor to ceiling let in natural light and offer striking, unobstructed views of the ocean. The expert craftsmanship is evident in the arched entryways, custom millwork, built-in window seats, and elegant moldings that decorate this remarkable residence.
As you arrive, a newly paved driveway leads you through lush native plants, mature oak trees, and palmettos, ensuring your privacy. This driveway guides you to a charming open courtyard featuring brick steps and an entry portico. With four levels, the house includes seven well-appointed bedrooms, eight full baths, and two powder rooms. The first level contains four bedrooms, two bathrooms on each side of a large family recreation room equipped with a wet bar and a powder room. Guests will enjoy easy access to the pool terrace and a covered patio from this level. All oceanfront bedrooms on the first and second levels feature private covered porches with tranquil ocean views. The main living areas and the primary suite occupy the second level, which serves as the heart of the home. The great room impresses with its panoramic ocean views, a stunning stone fireplace, a soaring two-story arched ceiling, and warm heart of pine flooring embellished with maple inlays.
The kitchen is wide open with custom cabinetry and a central island with a breakfast bar, seamlessly linking to both the great room and the dining area. Step out onto the covered deck for outdoor dining, or relax on the expansive rear deck furnished with rocking chairs, enjoying views of the natural vegetation, dunes, and the expansive ocean. Two staircases flank the pool terrace, leading to your own access point to the beach. A separate office, laundry room, and powder room are conveniently positioned just off the kitchen. The spacious primary suite occupies the western side and has its own loft area, featuring a second stone fireplace, a sitting space, and a covered deck with ocean views. The large loft includes built-ins and a workstation, providing stunning ocean vistas. The luxurious oversized dual primary bathrooms and dressing rooms enhance the lavish feel of this suite.
On the third level, there’s a suite that can serve as a mother-in-law suite or a teenage retreat with its own sitting area. A hallway with a Juliette balcony that overlooks the great room leads to a fourth-level private retreat that includes an extra bedroom or office, a full bath, and a balcony with amazing views. This well-kept home, cherished by its original owners, also features a four-stop elevator and a garage that can accommodate three cars with sufficient space for storing bicycles and beach essentials. Located about half an hour from the historic center of Charleston, Kiawah Island represents the pinnacle of luxurious living. This oceanfront estate is a unique treasure just waiting for you to call it home.
