In the creekside neighborhood of Beresford Hall,nature and man in concert have created a low country paradise beneath a canopy of old live oaks on the banks of Beresford Creek. Here sits a home of subtle elegance in perfect accord with its surroundings. Guests are welcomed by two spacious covered porches and a gently curved stairway of bull nosed tumbled brick. Once inside the eye is immediately drawn through the house toward the creek, easily seen through the french doors that grace the first floor living spaces. To the left of the entrance hall is a comfortable office/study and on the right,one of two true master suites. Spacious and well appointed, this space is situated on the most secluded side of the house and overlooks the creek. An intimate and private porch can be accessed from the bedroom. Other well thought out amenities are his and hers closets and a generously sized bath with a large walk-in shower augmented by inlaid tile detail and a stand alone deep soaking tub. Dual vanities with natural marble counters and abundant cabinetry provide space and ample storage. The mirrors above each vanity were custom framed to beautiful effect. At the back of the house, the main living areas overlook the creek. The first floor back porch is 12' deep and runs the entire width of the house. It serves as an extension of the main living areas, offers panoramic creek views and works as additional space for entertaining or relaxing almost year round. And with a kitchen as well planned as this one, who wouldn't want to entertain? Custom cabinetry with arched raised panels create enough space for even the most well accessorize cooks. Granite counters, and a host of top of the line appliances help create a kitchen that is both appealing and efficient. The 5 burner Wolf gas cook top, double convection ovens and warming drawer look as great as they perform. A SubZero refrigerator, Asko dishwasher and U Line wine chiller complete the stellar kitchen line up. A deep pantry and large laundry room are conveniently located off the kitchen. The 2nd level of the house includes 3 spacious secondary bedrooms,3 baths, and 2nd laundry room. A media/game room with wet bar, refrigerator and ice maker and a 2nd master suite have access to another 12' deep covered porch. Creek views at this level are amazing. 4""wide hickory floors enhance the first level, stair- case and 2nd floor hall. Baths and laundries are tiled. An integrated smart house network accommodates entertainment and communication systems. There is a well-designed speaker system too. Beresford Creek, Wando River and the harbor are easily accessible via a private dock and floater. The lift holds 10,000 lbs. Water and electricity are at hand. As secluded and private as this home is, the conveniences of modern life are only minutes away. This special property offers a unique opportunity for those who appreciate one of life's singular joys...time well spent on a lowcountry deep water creek.
