Luxurious Ocean Forest living awaits at 541 Forest Road. This stunning lakeside cottage, with Mizner influences throughout, is made for living and entertaining. The first level plan is highlighted by the two story foyer, which opens to the living room, family room and kitchen. All have lake views, and the kitchen features a center island with sink, Wolf and Sub Zero appliances and loads of custom cabinetry. Behind this space is an oversized laundry and party prep area, with a full size Viking fridge and Sub Zero wine fridge, plus an additional work sink and lots of extra storage. The family room has beamed ceilings and a cozy fireplace, one of three in the home, and has lake views. The dining room is formal and lined with built-ins. The primary bedroom, also with lake views, features a sitting area, an oversized bath with double sinks, shower and soaking tub and possibly the largest closet of any Sea Island cottage. Complete with packing table, built-ins and tall windows for light, this is more a repository than a closet. Upstairs via the beautiful wrought iron staircase, the second level offers another family room with views and four bedrooms – two that share a jack and jill bath and two with full en suite baths. Above the two car garage with storage is an additional suite. Currently serving as an office, this room features pecky cypress accents, the third fireplace and another full bath. Other notable features of the cottage include concrete block construction with stucco coating, clay barrel tile roofing, lakeside patios on both levels, outdoor cooking area and a whole house generator. This is the best of Ocean Forest living in a home that was made for living – come see for yourself at 541 Forest Road.
