Generous double front porches welcome you to this exceptional Kiawah River residence, where classic Lowcountry architecture is paired with a fresh, sophisticated coastal aesthetic. Beyond the mahogany louvered front door, a striking foyer with a beadboard ceiling and custom trim detail offers an immediate introduction to the craftsmanship found throughout the home. Detailed transoms, custom paneling, ceiling beams, intricate millwork and European white oak floors add character and architectural interest at every turn.
Inspired by the vibrant hues of the Bahamas and the natural beauty of Kiawah River, the interiors layer ocean blues, lush greens and warm sandy neutrals with woven lighting, natural materials and thoughtfully selected finishes. Texture brings warmth and dimension throughout, while paneled Shaker doors, louvered built-ins, inset beaded-frame cabinetry and designer lighting give the home a distinctly custom feel.
Designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining, the kitchen, dining and living spaces come together in an open, light-filled plan. A generous island with custom edge detailing anchors the kitchen, complemented by Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances and beautifully crafted cabinetry. Just beyond, a spacious scullery provides additional workspace, pantry storage and a beverage cooler, keeping preparation and storage conveniently tucked away from the main gathering spaces.
The living room is centered around a sculptural plaster fireplace, flanked by a custom built-in on one side and a distinctive Harmon hinge door on the other. The main living spaces flow naturally to the home's outdoor areas, extending everyday living beyond the interiors and embracing the relaxed Lowcountry lifestyle.
Thoughtful planning extends to the home's hardworking spaces as well. A spacious laundry and mudroom are conveniently located near the front entrances with additional access from the kitchen, keeping practical details of everyday life organized. An elevator connects all three levels, from the expansive drive-under garage to the main living floor and second level.
The main-floor primary suite provides a private retreat, while an additional room on this level offers flexibility as a dedicated office or fifth bedroom. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms each feature a private en suite bath, with the home's custom millwork and architectural detailing continuing throughout. The front bedroom opens onto its own generous covered porch—a quiet place to enjoy the breeze and views of the surrounding community.
On the ground level, two garage doors open to an exceptionally spacious drive-under garage with room for up to four vehicles, as well as ample space for golf carts, bicycles, outdoor gear and storage.
From its layered materials and finely detailed millwork to its light-filled interiors and generous outdoor living spaces, this home was designed to feel both elevated and inviting. Every element has been thoughtfully considered to balance beauty with livability, resulting in a refined yet relaxed expression of Lowcountry living in Kiawah River.
