Set along the banks of Toomer Creek, this beautifully crafted waterfront home offers a rare blend of thoughtful design, quality craftsmanship, and effortless Lowcountry living.This stately custom-built home, originally constructed by a builder as his personal residence, showcases exceptional attention to detail, quality materials, and meticulous upkeep throughout. A timeless low-maintenance brick exterior and elevated construction with an extra-deep slab add both durability and peace of mind, while recent updates ensure modern comfort.What truly sets this property apart are the long-range water views. With no docks or homes directly across the creek as it winds, the setting feels incredibly private and serene. The home's placement was intentionally designed to maximize the views-creating a unique perspective where the water feels close and immersive while providing a beautiful, ever-changing backdrop from nearly every angle. The main level is thoughtfully designed for those who love to entertain. Step inside to a light-filled living area where expansive windows frame the views. The great room features a gas fireplace and flows into an elegant dining room, creating a natural gathering space. The beautifully renovated gourmet kitchen serves as the heart of the home--featuring custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, dual sinks, double Bosch dishwashers, double wall ovens, a 6-burner Wolf gas cooktop, a custom stainless and gold hood, wine cooler, and an oversized island with plenty of seating. Just off the kitchen, a large screened porch creates a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience-perfect for dining, relaxing, and enjoying peaceful water views. This is a space designed to be used year-round and one that truly enhances the way the home lives. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a private retreat with a flexible sitting area, three walk-in closets, and direct access to a screened porch overlooking the creek--ideal for morning coffee and sunrise views. The adjoining sitting room also presents a unique opportunity to be enclosed and accessed from the hallway, creating a private office, nursery, or additional bedroom if desired. The primary bathroom was updated in 2022 with quartz countertops, fresh paint, updated lighting, and a new shower door. Two additional guest bedrooms are also located on this level, each with their own private en suite bath, offering comfort and privacy for family and guests. The ground level functions beautifully as a private mother-in-law suite or hangout space, complete with its own kitchen, living area, bedroom, and full bath. With direct access to the covered patio and backyard, this level creates an ideal setup for entertaining-whether hosting friends after a day on the water or enjoying a relaxed evening at home. The downstairs kitchen, along with the main kitchen, was updated in 2022 with new countertops, lighting, and finishes. Outside, the property features a lush yard, brick patio, fire pit area, and inviting gathering spaces designed for both everyday enjoyment and entertaining. From floating in the creek to evenings around the fire, this home is designed for making memories. For boating enthusiasts, the lifestyle here is unmatched. Enjoy direct access to Toomer Creek with a shared dock, private ramp, floating dock, boat lift, and Ipe decking. An outdoor shower and sink make it easy to rinse off after a day on the water, and the shorter dock allows for quick and convenient access back to the home. Additional features include a tankless water heater, central vacuum system, and security system. Plans are currently being developed for an exterior elevator, thoughtfully designed to open to the main living level and upper floor (if desired)--offering a future opportunity for enhanced convenience and long-term accessibility without compromising the home's existing layout. Set within Tennyson, a sought-after subsection of Park West, this home is surrounded by mature trees, waterfront properties, and a uniquely charming setting centered around a beautiful neighborhood park--offering a character that's hard to find in more traditional neighborhoods. From here, you're approximately 15 minutes to the heart of Mount Pleasant, 20 minutes to the area's beautiful beaches, and about 30 minutes to historic downtown Charleston. With an incredible variety of dining, shopping, and recreation just minutes away, everything you need is close to home--while still enjoying easy access to the coast and downtown whenever you choose. This is more than a home--it's a Southern coastal retreat designed for living, entertaining, and making memories on the water.
