Welcome to this beautiful home in Whitney Lakes on Johns Island. The house is only four years old and is open, light, and airy with tons of natural light. It has been beautifully cared for by its original owner and has been decorated with impeccable taste. The owner added $30,000 in upgrades when building it. These upgrades include: fireplace, additional windows to let in natural light, screened porch, two car garage, upgraded kitchen cabinets, high end gas stove and appliance package, recessed lighting, stair case railing, master bathroom shower and tub combo, tile throughout the master bathroom, a second sink in the master bathroom, upgraded carpet, additional insulation in the interior walls, attic storage, high end lighting from West Elm, a fence, and landscaping.The lot backs up to woods and a one-acre pond, so you've no-one except the birds behind you. The current owner says that one of her favorites things to do is to sit in the screened porch and watch the many birds (Cardinals, Chickadees, Tufted Titmouses, Carolina Wrens and Finches), that come from the woods behind the house.Those of you with pets will appreciate the fully fenced in backyard, complete with a spacious two car garage. Whitney Lakes is a charming neighborhood with a lot of walking/ running trails. You can kayak and fish on the lake, stroll around one of the main trails, or relax on the dock or a bench and take in the views. Being a dog friendly community, there are dog waste stations placed around the trails as well. There are a number of kayak stands to store your kayak close to the water, a community dock, and three community fire pits to enjoy the lake view by the glow of the fire!The neighborhood is particularly friendly, there are always activities going on for the holidays (Easter, Memorial Day, 4th of July, Halloween, and Christmas). Maybe you'll even get invited to one of the Flamingo Fridays, where neighbors will have a gathering with appetizers & drinks to get to know one another.Whitney Lakes is very conveniently located on Johns Island, just two miles from the bridge to James Island. Local area favorites that are just minutes away include great restaurants like Wild Olive, Fat Hen, The Royal Tern, Tattooed Moose, Charleston's best Irish pub at Seanachai, and even a brewery at Low Tide, all within 5 minutes from the house.
