From the moment you arrive, the architectural presence is striking: clean lines, steel siding, and a modern black steel and glass entry door set the tone for what's inside.Step into a sun-drenched, open floor plan where 10-foot ceilings, oversized windows, and thoughtful details create an effortless sense of space.

The primary suite is positioned to capture panoramic views of the marsh and Ravenel Bridge, and includes a spa-like bath with a freestanding soaking tub, frameless glass shower, and oversized double vanity. A custom walk-in closet provides ample storage. Also on this level is a laundry room with a built-in coffee bar and a third bedroom with an ensuite bath and more stunning views.
