Where Modern Waterfront Living Meets Timeless Lowcountry Soul. Perched on the edge of the marsh in the coveted Kiawah River community, this newly built, meticulously constructed by Shelter Custom Built Living waterfront retreat is a masterclass in modern luxury, seamlessly woven into the fabric of nature. With 4 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, and nearly 4,000 square feet of light-filled living space, this home was designed for the buyer who values architecture, lifestyle, and a deeper connection to the outdoors. From the moment you arrive, you'll feel the difference. Custom wallpaper, copper gutters, gas lanterns, home theater system and refined coastal materials nod to timeless Lowcountry traditions, while inside, clean lines, curated textures, and elevated finishes set a sophisticated tone.The main level features soaring ceilings and an open-concept layout drenched in natural light, with sightlines that stretch out across the marsh and water beyond. Every corner was designed to inspire. The heart of the home, a chef's kitchen with butler's pantry, features a copper farmhouse sink, instant hot water beverage faucet, and custom cabinetry. The main-level primary suite offers private views of the marsh and spa-level finishes, while three additional ensuite bedrooms upstairs provide both privacy and comfort. A versatile bonus room with dry bar and beverage cooler connects to a top-floor deck, perfect for movie nights, entertaining, or play. But the soul of the property lives outdoors. A modern pool and hot tub overlook the scenic marsh, surrounded by a deep backyard designed for celebration and serenity. Picture evenings around the fire pit, Lowcountry boils on the porch, or sunrise coffee as the mist rolls across the tidal creeks. And it's all nestled inside Kiawah River, a one-of-a-kind community on 2,000 protected acres just minutes from Kiawah Island, Freshfields Village, Bohicket Marina and a short 20 miles from Charleston. Here, life unfolds at the intersection of sustainability, luxury, and nature. Miles of trails wind through maritime forests and pastures, where wildlife roams freely and the river calls you to paddle, fish, and explore. Residents enjoy exclusive access to Spring House, a 9,000-square-foot swim and fitness center, as well as The Landing dock and boat ramp, The Outfitter for gear and guided adventures, and the Kiawah River Farm, a 100-acre working farm rooted in regenerative agriculture, local partnerships, and a true farm-to-table lifestyle. At the Goatery, residents can interact with animals and experience hands-on sustainable farming. The community also offers Farmstead Park, a recreational hub with pickleball and tennis courts, an athletic field, a children's playground, and two enclosed dog parks. For those seeking elevated hospitality, The Dunlin, Auberge Resorts Collection, delivers luxury accommodations and amenities right within the neighborhood. And with close proximity to world-class golf, like Kiawah Island Golf Resort and Oak Point Golf Course, residents have seamless access to some of the finest courses in the Southeast. Enjoy privacy with the adjacent lot reserved as a beautifully manicured community park, not to be developed. Additional features of the home include a residential elevator and Level 2 EV charger. You're not just buying a home, you're investing in a lifestyle where every detail feels intentional, every day feels inspired, and the best of Charleston's natural beauty is right outside your door.
