Welcome to Le Chén, a meticulously maintained and updated coastal retreat in Beaufort's original walking neighborhood of Newpoint. Featuring massive live oaks and Spanish moss, this exceptional home offers dual primary suites (one on the main level and a grand suite upstairs), a New Orleans-inspired Whiskey Room library, a spacious updated kitchen, and a living room centered around a brick fireplace that flows into a sunlit Carolina Room. Outdoor living abounds with five private porches--including two screened first-floor porches and an oversized upstairs porch with a Charleston porch swing overlooking the oak-lined streets. Additional highlights include a detached, renovated first floor carriage house with a full kitchen and bath, ideal for long- or short-term guests, with an air-conditioned two-bay garage with rear service road access, and a tranquil backyard backing up to a wooded area. Located just five houses from the community dock overlooking the Beaufort River and less than 10 minutes from downtown, this property combines historic neighborhood charm with modern luxury. (A complete list of seller upgrades over the last five years is available upon request.)

Lady's Island, located between downtown Beaufort and St. Helena Island, is a coastal and residential Beaufort neighborhood with tidal creeks and marsh-front views. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Sea Island Parkway corridor near the Lady’s Island Bridge, where marinas, seafood counters, and low-slung local shops set a salt-air rhythm. The Beaufort Marina and Freedom Mall act as everyday anchors for errands and waterfront routines. Housing ranges from ranch-style homes and live-oak-shaded subdivisions to newer builds near the water. Broad River landings and creek edges shape a boating-and-biking lifestyle. Sunsets over the marsh read like a daily calendar.
