82 Plantation House Drive , Bluffton, SC 29910(Beaufort County)

The home consists of three finished floors with the main level boasting multiple dining and entertaining spaces, a 1000+ sq ft owner’s suite, and a waterside screened porch with outdoor kitchen. Newly added vaulted ceilings are prevalent throughout the home and luxury thick Monarch hardwood floors can be found on the primary and 2nd floors. The basement mimics a Speakeasy, or multipurpose room, complete with full bath and 2000 sq ft of additional heated/cooled space.

Other new additions to the home include floor-to-ceiling stone and brick fireplaces located in both the great room and owner’s suite. The owner’s bedroom also has a high vaulted shiplap ceiling. The suite also offers a wet bar, with multi-faceted use as both a coffee bar and beverage center. The owner’s suite includes a breathtaking waterfront spa-like bathroom with a nearly 10’X10’ double shower, double vanities with custom cabinetry, heated towel bars, large Italian oyster shell tile with a slip resistant finish, towering shiplap ceilings, and a beautiful waterside slipper tub adjacent to another large picture window. The view from every angle of the owner’s bathroom is stunning. Adjacent to the bath is a newly constructed and overly spacious owner’s closet again with soaring ceilings, custom cabinetry and shelving, a dramatic center island, and a stackable washer/dryer.

Upon entering the home the eye is immediately beckoned by the sweeping marsh-to-river vista through the oversized picture windows across the back of the home. This includes a massive 12-foot center window framing a view that is perfectly bracketed by two islands, which are frequently visited by flocks of white egrets. The large floor to ceiling stone fireplace in the great room is certainly a focal point, providing ample seating around its raised stone slab hearth.

Just as notable is the adjacent kitchen, with its beautiful marble island, running 12 feet long. The kitchen would delight even the most discerning of chefs. The 8 burner Wolf gas range is complemented by a custom designed range hood. The new side by side Thermador refrigerator and freezer towers are quite modern and dramatic, while the oversized Shaw’s English porcelain farmhouse sink is flanked by two separate Thermador dishwashers. Adjacent to the walk-in pantry is a sleek granite topped coffee bar with compact refrigerator/wine chiller. The kitchen cabinets and marble countertops are slightly raised, for entertaining comfort, and there are also two side by side built-in pantries with large deep sliding drawers.

An office, half bath, and mud room area can also be found on the main floor of the home. Upstairs there are two waterside guest bedrooms, also with vaulted ceilings, and terrific marsh and river views. The second floor also includes a beautifully renovated bathroom with a custom double vanity and walk-in shower as well as a nearby stackable washer/dryer. With nearly 1.5 marsh front acres, the amazing views from this estate are not easily recreated in other settings and are even more striking due to the home’s very uniquely high elevation on the crest of a bluff. In fact, the entire home, including the large basement, is entirely above flood level, an exceedingly rare benefit for a marsh front estate in the Lowcountry. The vast salt marsh extends from the backyard to the Colleton River. Tidal channels also offer kayaking and paddle boarding to the two islands and the deep water of the Colleton River beyond.
