This spectacular lowcountry Lakefront home on .6ac in the heart of James Island has been meticulously updated and modernized, yet maintains the original character of when it was built with in 1969. This home needs nothing and has everything...large custom kitchen with center island and lots of storage, granite and walnut countertops, stainless steel appliances and gas cook top. Embraced with Southern Charm by Majestic Moss Draped Oaks on this oversized yard that offers views of the mature landscape and lake from just about every room. This backyard feels more like wild kingdom than a suburban neighborhood. The numerous windows invites an abundance of nature light. All the mechanicals in this home have been updated including plumbing, wiring and an energy-efficient Rennai tankless hot water system. This open floor plan is perfect for entertaining, yet also allows for privacy with separate living room and family rooms, each with their own fireplace. Additionally, you will find an oversized bonus room over the garage well suited for anything including a game room, "mancave", home office or possibly a separate dual master suite. A home of this caliber is a rare find on James Island, situated on Willow Lake in the highly sought after Eastwood neighborhood.
