Overview
Nestled beneath a canopy of majestic live oaks within the exclusive gated enclave of Ellis Oaks, 660 Ellis Oak Drive represents a rare opportunity to experience the quintessential Charleston waterfront lifestyle. Set on more than an acre of beautifully landscaped grounds, this private estate seamlessly blends timeless Lowcountry elegance with modern luxury and exceptional outdoor living. Designed to embrace its stunning natural surroundings, the property offers gorgeous water views, a private dock with floating dock and boat lift, and access to Charleston's iconic waterways. Spend your days cruising the harbor, fishing from your dock, or enjoying unforgettable sunrises from your own backyard. The outdoor living experience is equally extraordinary. A sparkling saltwater pool and spa servesas the centerpiece of the estate, complemented by a custom cabana crowned with a distinctive cupola, creating a resort-inspired setting for entertaining, relaxing, and enjoying Charleston's year-round coastal climate. Expansive lawns, mature oaks, and gentle waterfront breezes provide a sense of tranquility rarely found so close to the city.Inside, a beautifully renovated chef's eat-in kitchen serves as the centerpiece of the home, showcasing designer lighting, thoughtfully curated upgrades, a well-appointed butler's pantry, and exceptional storage. Designed to accommodate both intimate gatherings and grand-scale entertaining, the open-concept floor plan flows effortlessly into a spacious family room anchored by a gas fireplace and extends to an expansive screened porch (15x43), featuring a wood-burning fireplace. From here, sweeping views of the meticulously landscaped grounds, saltwater pool and spa, and serene waterfront setting create an unforgettable backdrop for everyday living. The main level is further anchored by an expansive owner's suite, offering a private retreat that blends comfort, luxury, and convenience.Throughout the residence, reclaimed antique hardwood flooring, custom cabinetry, exquisite millwork, and refined architectural details reflect a commitment to exceptional craftsmanship and timeless design. A gracious formal dining room, elegant powder room, and thoughtfully designed laundry and mudroom complete the main level, seamlessly balancing sophistication with functionality.Upstairs, three generously proportioned ensuite guest bedrooms provide exceptional comfort and privacy for family and guests. A central gathering space with custom built-in cabinetry offers remarkable versatility, serving equally well as a secondary living area, executive home office, study space, or reading retreat.The expansive room over the generous two car garage serves as an exceptional media retreat, complete with an 8' x 8' movie screen, mounted projector, and surround-sound system. An adjoining flex space with bar, beverage refrigerator, and half bath provides endless possibilities as a home office, fitness studio, game room, secondary den, or private guest retreat.Beyond its stunning aesthetic appeal, the home has benefited from numerous mechanical and system upgrades, reflecting a commitment to quality, comfort, and long-term value. A comprehensive list of improvements is available in the documents section.Waterfront acreage, mature oak canopies, private boating access, resort-style amenities, and a meticulously updated home are becoming increasingly scarce in Charleston's most desirable locations. Just minutes from Downtown Charleston, premier dining, shopping, top schools, and area beaches, 660 Ellis Oak Drive is more than a home, it is a legacy property offering an unparalleled Lowcountry lifestyle for generations to come.
