MLS# 21017764 | 1775 Wilshire Drive Charleston SC | Huntington Woods subdivision

There are houses and then there are....HOUSES. And then there is THIS HOUSE. If you have been looking for an elevated marshfront home inside 526, you know that you are looking for a unicorn. Well, now you have found it! The builders of this home thought of everything you could hope for- AND MORE! Located in highly sought after Huntington Woods (part of the original Orange Grove attendance zone) and sitting on almost a half acre of marshfront land, this newer construction custom home is located on a point and tucked back behind Spanish moss draped oaks and gorgeous landscaping that offer so much privacy that, from the road, you may miss how large the almost 3900 sq ft home is. Landscape lighting highlights the beauty of the historic trees and illuminates the ipe/Brazilianwalkway to the front door. The minute you step through the door, the view of the marsh takes your breath away with floor to ceiling doors and windows all along the back of the house. The views all day are amazing, but with this west facing home, the sunsets steal the show!To the right of the entry way is an office, complete with custom built dual sided desk and shelving- perfect for our new normal of working from home. But this house isn't all about working, with a view like this one, you have to maximize the fun and the designers clearly had that in mind. The back of the home features a family room and kitchen with massive sliding glass doors that open the back wall of the home to the deck. LED lighting, a sleek fireplace, and whole home speaker system controlled by Sonos system w/ wall volume controls (living room, master bedroom, master bathroom, upstairs entertainment room, office, kitchen, gym over garage, pool deck) set the scene inside, but the view draws you out. On the ipe deck, you will find a Gunite pool and spa with salt system and sand filter (Natural gas spa heater). Mounted umbrellas keeps the sun at bay, but built in misters through the deck will keep you cool even on the hottest days. When the weather is nice enough to leave those massive glass doors open, you can lower the electric retractable porch screen to create a screened porch on the back deck giving you flexibility with the space. The deck wouldn't be complete without an outdoor kitchen (granite countertops, a 36"" Wolf natural gas grill, Kamado Joe ""Big Joe"" smoker, Sub-Zero outdoor beverage fridge, and a stainless bar sink) and Natural Gas fire pit. And all of this is surrounded by landscaping so mature, you feel like you are on a private island. Back inside, you find open concept living between the family room and the kitchen which has a Bosch Dishwasher, Viking 36"" natural gas Range/oven, and GE Cafe fridge as well as a dry bar with Scotsman commercial ice maker, Sub-Zero glass front beverage fridge, and granite countertop. The kitchen has a large walk in pantry with separate beverage fridge and boasts reverse osmosis + re-mineralizing water tap in kitchen. The large laundry room/mudroom, the separate entrance, and stylish half bath provide both sleek functionality and storage. This home has a downstairs master with two custom walk-in closets. The en suite bathroom has dual vanities, a large soaker tub, separate shower, and one of the many baseboard ""sweep pans"" located throughout the home and which integrate with the retractable central vacuum system making cleaning a SNAP! Situated at the back of the house, the large master bedroom takes advantage of the private views of the marsh- and allows easy access to the pool deck from the master bedroom. At the top of the stairs you will find a huge loft/bonus space set up to entertain with another beverage fridge and built in storage. One of the three large bedrooms has an en suite bathroom while the other 2 bedrooms share a hall bath. This home is a storage dream with plenty of closets, but it also features a large walk in attic space on the second level and a huge attic space above. Back outside the home is a 2 car garage with Gladiator Garage Cabinets and accessories. The space above the garage would be perfect as a mother in law suite (serves as the 5th bedroom), a home office, or even an income producing property. It has a separate entrance, a fully equipped gym (most equipment will convey), full bathroom, closet, and built in Murphy bed. Back outside, your kids will have a blast on the custom tree house with rubber playground mulch, and you can watch them play from the comfort of your hammock in the ""Summer House"" (screened in room with electric, fan, lighting, tv, all furnishings included: hammocks, chairs, tv, heater). Down by the marsh, you can sit at the wood burning fire pit patio (power has been added down there so you can take your Sonos speaker), but you won't have to worry about mosquitoes because property is covered by a perimeter mosquito system. Shower off in the outdoor shower (which runs hot and cold water), before heading back upstairs to jump in the pool!This home has all of the extras- REME HALO-LED in duct air purifiers (installed during COVID to keep contagions at bay), a whole home generator installed in 2020, tankless hot water heater, 3 separate HVAC units, wifi enabled thermostats, whole home wifi, Arlo wireless security system, pre-run Cat 5 cable throughout the house, and more. Don't miss this opportunity to buy a MARSHFRONT custom home on a larger lot inside 526. There isn't another one like this out there!Virtual tour and Drone videos coming soon!
