Over the last two months, exciting progress has been made at 34 Waterway Island Drive on Isle of Palms. Hardwood flooring and tile have been laid throughout the home, electrical pre-wiring is complete, trim work and shiplap have been installed and the HVAC is up and running.
One addition to the original plans includes a spiral staircase leading from the first-floor pool deck to a sundeck on the second floor. Soon, the interior walls will be painted with soft hues reflecting the nature that surrounds the 6,808-square-foot, 6-bedroom, 7.5-bathroom house, planned by architect Carl McCants of Mc3 Designs and with interiors designed by Amy Trowman.
From the moment one steps foot inside the home, glittering views of Morgan Creek and the Intracoastal Waterway command attention, elevating the contemporary coastal style to the next level. The open plan invites family members and guests to gather around two islands in the kitchen before sitting down for a meal in the adjoining inside or outside dining spaces, or relaxing in front of the interior or exterior fireplaces while enjoying conversation, music, a movie or a good book.
Beyond the communal living space is the primary suite, complete with a bedroom that opens out onto a deck overlooking the creek, along with a full bath, an office, a laundry room and the powder room. On the opposite side of the house behind the kitchen are a scullery/butler’s pantry and two additional bedrooms both with en suite bathrooms.
Upstairs is a second primary suite opening onto a shaded deck with views of the waterway. Additionally, there is what King & Society Real Estate’s realtor Misti Cox referred to as the “Bunk Room” that sleeps four, another bedroom with access to a sundeck that overlooks Morgan Creek and seating areas perfect for curling up to read one or several issues of Mount Pleasant Magazine. There is also a wine room, a coffee bar, a mechanical room, another laundry room and yes, even a Christmas closet and attic. Conveniently, an elevator allows access from the ground floor up to the first and second floors.
Of equal importance to the spacious interiors, are the exquisite outdoor living spaces. Boasting an infinity pool with water cascading over the side, a pool house shower, a sauna, an outdoor fireplace and kitchen area, separate shade and sundecks and a dock big enough to house four large boats, this property welcomes the coastal outdoor lifestyle to the inside. As Cox said, “One reason this home is unique is because as far as I know, there is no other dock in Charleston as big as this one.”
Whether planning a relaxing retreat or a getaway with family and friends, 34 Waterway is more than a home, it is a vacation destination in itself. To learn more about the property, slated for completion by January 2025, and to schedule a tour, contact Cox at 843-754-7826 or visit kingandsociety.com.
