Welcome to 219 Sea Marsh, the most spectacular 180 degree marsh view on Kiawah Island! The breeze and natural wildlife are bar none from the large back deck and peaceful screen porch.Major advantages to this home include exterior walls that are 2 x 6's and not 2 x 4's, adding additional strength and insulation to the house. The entire area between the sheathing and interior wall is filled with insulation.The home also features 5/4 or one inch thick cedar siding, which is more than standard 3/4 inch thick cedar siding. The siding is flush to the sheathing of the house and rabbet at the bottom. There is no gap behind the siding, unlike standard siding.The house is built on pilings driven into the ground to insure stability for years to come, and the rebar footing is poured ontop of the pilings. In addition, the house features hurricane bolts that bolt the house to the foundation, keeping the house from floating off the foundation in case of storm surge. Hurricane straps also tie the stud walls together, making for a strong roof. The Anderson windows on the front and back of house have hurricane rated film attached to the glass. This film is to strengthen the glass and keep it from shattering if hit by a flying object, also reducing heat and ultra violet light. On the interior, natural light and perfect views are brought in through the elongated windows lining the living room which encompasses a cozy fireplace and flows nicely into the graciously sized kitchen, a great spot for entertaining, especially since a formal dining room is right around the corner. The main floor also hosts the laundry room and two large bedrooms, including the primary, with ensuite bathrooms and gorgeous panorama marsh views. Upstairs hosts a second family room and three additional bedrooms, one leading into a large flex room, perfect for a playroom, a study or a storage room!Sold unfurnished. Governor's Club membership opportunity. Buyer to pay 1/2 of 1% of purchase price at closing.
