This one-of-a-kind home has both indoor and outdoor attractions. From the moment you come up the walkway and step onto the brick front porch, you will notice several gardens, a heated pool, putting green, and the upper screened-in porch, which evokes a welcoming embrace reminiscent of many homes in Charleston and Savannah. The welcome feeling is enhanced by an elegant RH Provence-style fountain, adjacent to the front porch.
The courtyard side of the home features a luxurious, heated, salt-water pool surrounded by gardens and comfortable gathering spaces, such as, the covered, cooking/dining porch.
The seven-hole putting green was designed by PGA Pro and top-ranked short-game instructor, Dave Stockton. The installation was professionally completed by Back Nine Greens, a California based company that has also worked for Tiger Woods, Mark Walberg, and Augusta National.
Inside, you will be charmed by the spacious media room with a built-in surround-sound speaker system, a large stone fireplace, and your big-screen TV that is surrounded by bookshelves. Opposite the media room and entrance foyer is a formal dining room with a butler’s pantry that leads to the kitchen which is open to the sitting area and a great room with another stone fireplace. Sharing the areas with dinner guests is easily accommodated by the open-concept design of the kitchen, great room, and sitting room.
