Set within thе GAΤED CΟΜMUNIΤΥ of Plantation Point, Unit 1601 dеlіvers a bright, updated, MOVE-IN READY presentation with a clean and modern feel throughout. One of its biggest advantages is that it comes with a GARAGE, along with the rare bungalow-style layout offering NO NEIGHBORS UPSTAIRS and NO NEIGHBORS ON EITHER SIDE, creating a quieter, more private, single-family-home feel. Inside, VAULTED CEILINGS add openness and character, while major updates provide peace of mind, including an HVAC system replaced about 5 years ago, a water heater replaced about 8 years ago, and newer flooring throughout. The kitchen features TRUE UPGRADES, including FULL CABINET REPLACEMENT, a NEW SINK, resurfaced bar-top area, new main countertop, and STAINLESS STEEL RANGE, DISHWASHER, AND MICROWAVE. Both bathrooms have been refreshed with newer VANITIES, UPGRADED MIRRORS, LED LIGHTING, and a MODERN MEDICINE CABINET. Additional improvements such as newer CARPET, VINYL PLANK FLOORING, BRAND NEW BASEBOARDS, FRESH PAINT, upgraded outlet covers, and a newer washer all contribute to the bright, crisp, updated presentation. The location is one of its strongest features, with immediate access to KROGER, TRUFFLES CAFE, MEDICAL OFFICES, BANKS, BELFAIR PLAZA, and a wide variety of nearby shopping and dining. Residents also enjoy convenient access to schools, OLD TOWN BLUFFTON, and the beaches of HILTON HEAD ISLAND, along with community amenities including TWO POOLS, FITNESS CENTER, CLUBHOUSE, PLAYGROUND, ON-SITE MANAGEMENT, and ample parking. A practical and appealing choice for a Primary Residence, second home, or INVESTMENT PROPERTY, this villa combines comfort, convenience, privacy, and value in the heart of Bluffton while offering an easy way to enjoy LOWCOUNTRY LIFE in one of the area's most convenient locations.
