Downstairs is graced throughout with lovely wood floors. Upstairs a large, recently remodeled second master suite has sitting room, two closets(one walk-in) and marble-floored bathroom. Another second floor room is an office, but could be a 4th bedroom. This has an extra large walk-in cedar storage closetA fabulous sun room leads outside to a very private fenced backyard with an in-ground pool. Winding paths lead through formal azalea and camellia gardens (many of the dozens of camellia varieties came from Magnolia Gardens in the 1950's) Backyard also has original brick grilling/entertaining area with large fireplace and oyster roasting pit. Wonderful plantings all around house include great live oaks, cherries, dogwoods, palms and much more providing ambient cooling. New 2007 HVAC upstairs w/ air cleaner.
