Rare opportunity to own a renovated, turn-key brick home less than a mile from Downtown. Situated on a serene salt water lake that feeds into the Ashley River. The amazing back yard not only offers views of the lake, but also features a beautiful Live Oak and Magnolia tree, a large deck and newly installed Old Charleston brick patio and adorable detached garage. Large glass French doors open up to the expansive deck and offer views and natural light to pretty much every living space in the home. Gleaming hardwood floors throughout. Completely renovated kitchen offers open space, custom shaker cabinets, professional gas oven, Quartz countertops and top-of-the-line dishwasher and microwave drawer, to name a few of the details the owner thought about when renovating.The kitchen opens to the separate dining room which opens to an arched doorway into the cozy living room with a wood burning fireplace. The living room has great light from the front and the back with views of the lake. There is a perfect little sun room directly on the lake side with exposed brick and a wall of French doors. Ideal for a home office, reading nook or even a children's playroom. One bedroom off of the front foyer is currently being used as an exercise room. There is a half bath powder room adjacent to that bedroom. The second guest bedroom is on the other side of the home. Down the wide hallway is a full bath and culminates at the end with the primary bedroom, which has 2 closets and an en suite bathroom featuring a separate walk-in shower and a jetted garden tub. The primary bedroom opens to the deck and has views of the lake. The lake is dammed and pumped every year by the HOA allowing for homeowners to do work on their lake bank and to clean out any invasive plants. HOA dues are completely voluntary. The attic is spacious and clean - can very easily be renovated to include a second floor. Currently there is a huge climate-controlled cedar closet in the attic for protected storage.
