Listing Details

Have you ever dreamt of life on a small sea island just south of historic Charleston? Welcome to Edisto Island! Edisto is famous for its ancient live Oaks, beaches, parks, and rich Southern culture. It's a slightly slower pace of life, where you can take your dog to the beach, enjoy fresh seafood, or visit historic Botany Bay with its walking trails and famous maritime forest. 899 Claussen House Drive is a charming coastal cottage with abundant natural light that gleams off of true hardwood floors throughout this exquisite floorplan. This home has been lovingly maintained and recently renovated to offer a truly turnkey experience onto Edisto Island. The .66 acre lot is fully fenced for the security of your kids and pets, and it features an electric gate for your convenience. Mature landscaping offers everything from Grand Oaks draped in Spanish moss to fruit bearing trees, and with plenty of room to roam. Classically southern, this elevated home has an elegant entryway leading up to a covered porch. If it suits you, you and your groceries can also take the elevator up to the primary floor! From the front door, you enter into a spacious great room with vaulted ceilings that is open to a recently renovated kitchen with granite countertops, custom lighting, and new appliances! The kitchen has access to the screened in back porch, perfect for quiet evenings with a book on this very private lot. The elevator access is also located off of this back porch. Back inside, you will find that this home is designed for the privacy of the primary suite. A very spacious bedroom with custom ceiling height wainscoting leads into a renovated bathroom with dual sinks and a custom tile shower. Just adjacent to this bathroom is a fully customized laundry area with extra storage and a pantry. This space opens back out into your kitchen. The other side of the floor plan houses the two guest bedrooms which share a full bath that is also recently renovated. On the ground floor, you will find another utility room or man cave! This room also houses the RO system, which features a charcoal filtration system for excellent water quality. Also under this covered area is space for picnics, hammocks, grilling, boat, storage, parking, or whatever your heart desires! There is even an outdoor shower down here for when you come home sandy and salty from Edisto Beach - which is just minutes away! Too tired to take the stairs? Don't forget about your elevator!
