This beautiful 5-bedroom, 3-bath home is nearly all on one level and thoughtfully designed to capture the magic of Dewees Island living.Enter into a spacious living room that flows seamlessly into the dining area, all under a dramatic vaulted ceiling. Sliding doors on both ends of the home invite the ocean breeze, creating an airy, indoor-outdoor vibe. The kitchen is a showstopper--featuring a large island, gas range, and a cozy sitting area perfect for sipping morning coffee while watching nature unfold.To the right, a junior primary suite offers privacy for guests.On the opposite wing, you'll find four additional bedrooms, including the primary suite with its own private porch.

Recent upgrades include a full exterior refresh with Emerald Rain Refresha premium self-cleaning paint formulated to resist dirt and grime while offering superior UV and weather protection.
