This fabulous gem in desirable Essex at Carolina Bay is conveniently located off of Glenn McConnell near shopping, restaurants, hospital, and more with easy access to I-526, Downtown, Boeing, Charleston International Airport, and the Coliseum. You must see this immaculate 3 bedroom/2 1/2 bath drive-under home with spacious rooms, an enormous garage to accommodate up to four cars, a screened porch with marsh views, numerous upgrades, up-lighting, and an irrigation system. It has always been a second home and has been beautifully maintained and very gently used. You're just steps away from the marsh and walking trails, and the resort-like amenity center is at the end of the street. Inside, you'll find an open floor plan; plantation blinds; hardwood floors throughout the first floor livingarea; like-new upgraded carpet in the bedrooms; granite countertops, lovely dark wood cabinetry, breakfast bar, stainless steel appliances, and a gas range in the kitchen; tray ceiling in the dining room; smooth ceilings throughout and crown molding in nearly every room; a spacious master bedroom on the main floor; garden tub, double sinks, ceramic tiling, and his-and-hers walk-in closets in the master bath; laundry room on the main floor; and an extra room that can be used as a home office or library. The large great room is wired for a high definition TV system over the gas fireplace. The hallway closet is designed for an elevator should you later decide to add it. Paint colors throughout are neutral, and most of the downstairs has been recently painted. Two large bedrooms are upstairs with ample closet space and a guest bath. Underneath the home is a huge garage with ample room for cars, yard equipment and storage. The exterior siding, trim, and porches have all been recently painted/stained. Enjoy the convenience of strolling down the street to the zero-entry pool, covered pavilion, and cozy brick-walled fire pit at the nearby amenity center. You can also walk along the Essex nature trail and take in the beauty of the mossy oaks and beautiful marsh. The roof is of architectural shingles, and the home has a Rinaii tankless water heater.
