About This Home
LISTED UNDER APPRAISED VALUE! Upgrades since purchase include: roof (2023), HVAC and ductwork (2024/2025), attic insulation, Bosch dishwasher (2025), LG wash tower (2025), exterior painting, updated deck, gutter installation, plantation shutters, and more. With over 4000 square feet on a nearly 1 acre lot on the marsh, this home is an entertainer's dream. The living room, dining room, vaulted great room, kitchen and back deck are an enormous contiguous, cohesive space that is rare to find in home construction and a delight to live in! Floor to ceiling windows offer stunning views of the marsh and a beautiful live oak from every part of the house including the downstairs master. A massive granite topped kitchen island with barstool spaces is the centerpiece of a newly renovated chefskitchen with Viking refrigerator and range. Connected but separate is a large laundry room including two pantries, cabinets, sink and bamboo topped prep area. 5 spacious bedrooms, 4 full baths, and a large bonus room lend flexibility for numerous configurations and creating an incredible guest experience. Storage capacity is epic with 8 closets, 2 large attics, and a 2 car garage with elevated storage shelving, refrigerator, and deep freezer. Wespanee homes are solidly built on large land plots. It's a neighborhood that is cohesive, insular, and a joy to walk and greet passing neighbors/families. While no HOA is a delight, homes are regularly updating/renovating with many boasting breathtakingly beautiful landscaping. It's a short walk from Charlestowne Landing and a soon to be completed county park. Less than a 10 min uber ride away from a downtown date night. The upcoming Ashley Landing development and access to I-26 are less 5 mins away with almost non-existent traffic between - a small miracle in the Charleston area! Access to Avondale is easy while not requiring fighting Hwy 17 congestion on a daily basis. Central to everywhere, the area is transforming into one of the most logistically desirable in Charleston, and Wespanee offers what is, uniquely, a true neighborhood living experience! New projects include: daybed/cabinet built-in, stair railing, pantry shelving, deck stairs, paver side path, and garbage can platform. The exterior has been transformed with repainted deck in May 2025, new external painting, completely hedged-in front beds, 4 new planted trees, perennial shrubs, front door light fixtures, wired-in garage EV charger on 50A circuit, front and back uplighting, backyard string lights, and gutter installation. Design touches have been made with professional input from one of Charleston's preeminent interior designers including wainscoting, front plantation shutters, 3 rooms with complete blackout curtains, stair runner, can lights with dimmers, artisan wallpapering, new upstairs carpeting, and internal paint color choices to bring everything together. All of this has been new from the previous home sale!
