Like new (completed in 2018), beautifully finished, custom, Lowcountry-style home on 2.8 private acres -- second row to the Intracoastal Waterway -- in Romain Retreat. Enter the home from the full, rocking chair front porch through the solid wood French doors and into the bright 2-story foyer. You'll immediately see many custom finishes such as the foyer's white shiplap walls that go from baseboard to second floor crown molding, the curved upstairs-hallway balcony, designer light fixtures, large solid wood barn doors, and beautiful wide plank hardwood floors. Through the barn door on the right is an office/bonus room. Straight through the foyer you will find the large, open family room, dining area, and kitchen. The family room features a 2-story ceiling,fireplace with solid brick hearth and surround, built-in cabinets with granite tops on either side of the fireplace and shiplap walls going up to the 2nd floor crown molding, and a built-in desk with granite top and wall cabinets above. Full-light French doors lead from the family room to the full, open back deck, which overlooks the absolutely stunning back yard with pool and gazebo. A large island with an abundance of cabinet space separates the family room from the kitchen and offers bar seating. The kitchen has stainless steel Thermador appliances, including a double oven range, built-in microwave, built-in coffee maker, and separate ice maker (made by Scotsman); custom white Shaker-style cabinets (including a refrigerator cabinet); granite countertops; and a huge walk-in pantry. The dining area is just off of the kitchen and overlooks the back yard. The main floor master bedroom is large and includes a sitting area. The master bathroom features tile flooring; a large 2-person shower with tile floor, ceiling, and surround; claw foot tub; custom double sink vanity with makeup table and granite countertop; custom lighting and plumbing fixtures; and custom mirrors. A large laundry room and a guest powder room are also on the main level of the home. The second floor has a beautifully finished master suite, two additional bedrooms that share a full bath, and a second laundry room. The home sits on a wonderfully private 2.8 acre lot -- 2nd row to the Intracoastal Waterway -- the back yard is fenced and expertly landscaped with raised beds and Lowcountry plantings around a curvaceous Gunite, salt water swimming pool with waterfall features, LED lights and beach entry. Travertine pavers make up the pool surround where the home's outdoor entertaining space is most scenic. A gazebo offers refuge from the sun in the heat of the day. Beneath the cover of the main floor porch is a private outdoor shower with hot and cold water. The ground floor of the home offers a huge covered outdoor living area. There's a gathering area, which is wired for a flat screen tv, and features a 2-sided bar that is opened and closed via a large garage-style door. The elevator goes from the ground floor to the top floor. Central vac on all 3 levels. Pre-wired for whole house generator and 400 amp service.Romain Retreat is a one-of-a-kind Lowcountry community. It is private, gated, and isolated on all sides by the ICW, the Francis Marion National Forest, and Cape Romain National Wildlife Refuge. And yet, 6 miles away you can grab a quick bite, grocery staples, or supplies from Sewee Outpost, Sewee Restaurant, Dollar General, and Tractor Supply; and in just 15 minutes you are among Mt Pleasant's shops, restaurants, hospitals, etc. The community has a boat ramp, dock, and large screened in picnic area for residents. Just a 15-minute boat ride through Bulls Bay into the Atlantic Ocean! Don't miss out on owning this little piece of paradise!
