Experience refined waterfront living where thoughtful design meets effortless coastal elegance. Perfectly positioned on the shores of Back Creek, this exceptional residence offers a seamless blend of luxury, comfort, and lifestyle. The main level is designed for both everyday living and elevated entertaining, featuring an open-concept layout anchored by a stunning chef’s kitchen with a large center island, custom white cabinetry, Bosch refrigerator, wall oven, gas cooktop with bronze hood, and a built-in bar. A butler’s pantry enhances functionality, while the adjoining living space is complete with a gas fireplace and designer tile flooring that mirrors the warmth of hardwood and creates an inviting yet sophisticated atmosphere. A powder room completes this level. Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat. Soaring cathedral ceilings, shiplap detailing, hardwood floors, and a private balcony set the tone, while a gas fireplace adds warmth and ambiance. The spa-inspired ensuite bath features a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and clean, timeless finishes, complemented by two generous walk-in closets. This level also includes a beautifully appointed laundry room with custom tile and built-ins, along with a flexible open space ideal for a home office, gym, or lounge. The lower level features a bedroom, a full bath, and an additional bonus room, providing flexible space ideal for family, guests, or a home office. Outdoors, the property truly shines. Just steps from the water, a fully conditioned crab shack becomes your front-row seat to life on the creek; perfect for entertaining, unwinding, or simply taking in the view. The private shoreline features a large sandy beach, approximately 4 feet of mean low water, two boat lifts and two jet ski lifts. A kayak storage system completes this backyard. The pier is outfitted with Trex decking, along with water and electric. The grounds are meticulously landscaped with an underground irrigation system, complemented by a covered deck, outdoor shower, and storage shed. Additional features include Hardie Plank siding and a whole-house generator for peace of mind. This is more than a home, it’s a turnkey waterfront lifestyle defined by quality, convenience, and understated luxury.
