This is the true plantation style home you are looking for. With a two story veranda that stretches the width of the home and features views of Winyah Bay and the Intracoastal Waterway. This home is perfectly situated to capture water views from the living room, the screened porch, the front porch and two upstairs bedrooms that also open onto the veranda. The view from the rear of the home overlooks a pond and waterfowl habitat where you might spot wood ducks, egrets and herons. There is a majestic live oak in the side yard that practically defies anyone to measure its size or guess its age. It is priceless. The layout of this home features 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths. 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms upstairs and 1 bedroom and 1 full bathroom downstairs. One bedroom upstairs is currently used as an office and features a charming work space with custom shelves. The living room is spacious and inviting featuring a gas fireplace surrounded by built-in display shelving and storage. Off the living room is the formal dining room and the kitchen. If you're in the mood for fresh air dining, continue through the dining room onto the large screened porch. The first floor bedroom is comfortable and quiet with a cathedral ceiling. There is a ground floor single car garage and walk in storage area under the home. Just behind the home is a full workshop and studio with an exterior deck overlooking the pond. This building is perfect for a hobbyist, artist or writer looking for quiet and inspirational work space or conversion to living space. Helena street is within the city limits of Georgetown, SC and is served by city water. This home is truly unique in its tremendous appeal, location, and natural surroundings. Don't miss it, there is not another one like it in Georgetown.
Finish the day sitting on a screened porch positioned under the sprawling canopy of a 350 year-old live oak tree. The panoramic views you'll enjoy are the wide waters of Winyah Bay and a waterfowl habitat where wood ducks, egrets and herons gather. Enjoy views from every window and three French doors. Other bonuses are tidal boating access to the bay, a workshop designed for conversion to a guest house and a small office outfitted with custom shelving.
