559 Front Nine Ln
OCEAN PARK
Private Home
$6,250,000
This recently completed coastal contemporary home at 559 Front Nine Lane features two expansive top-floor sundecks overlooking the first hole of the world-renowned Ocean Course, Kiawah’s pristine beach and the Atlantic Ocean beyond. Built four feet wider than similar homes in the neighborhood, this home is an oasis with four stories of comfortable outdoor and indoor living spaces from top to bottom. Designed for serenity with RH furnishings and generously sized, dark-framed Henselstone windows throughout, it offers an environment ideal for relaxing or hosting. The private primary suite alone, encompassing the entire top level, enjoys both sunrise and sunset views from eastern and western sundecks, plus a covered porch and open balcony with 270-degree views of the Ocean Course and the coastline. Three finely appointed corner guest suites with nearly identical footprints—no guest goes unpampered—occupy the main and second levels, each offering gorgeous treetop views in multiple directions. A floor-to-ceiling glass entry door tucked into the home’s modern, streamlined architecture opens to a foyer leading to an expansive wood-accented loggia with outdoor living and dining spaces, large grilling niche with hood, and fenced landscaped yard. The main level enjoys high ceilings throughout, beginning with the great room, where a whitewashed wood ceiling tops the dining and living rooms. The light-filled living room enjoys walls of floor-to-ceiling windows on three sides, a clean-lined fireplace with minimalist steel mantel, and a glass door opening to a screened porch. Serving as an outdoor living room amid the treetops, the porch itself opens to a sunlit side balcony overlooking a manicured lawn square. The dining room is spacious and open. Its table easily seats eight and expands to accommodate twelve in upholstered comfort, and a sideboard against an accent wall of vertical panelling keeps extra food and drinks close at hand. Large windows on three sides of the pristine kitchen, open to the dining room, stream with natural light. White, clean-lined Shaker cabinetry and pale, beautifully veined Allure quartzite countertops line the space, and a large island hosts a breakfast bar, cabinets, ice maker and Sub-Zero® undercounter wine cooler. Windows overlook the treetops above a stainless single-basin sink with additional Zip Hydrotap drinking-water faucet for instant hot, cold and sparkling water. The top-tier appliances include a Wolf® six-burner gas cooktop and oven under a custom hood, Wolf wall oven and dropdown-door microwave, and panelled French-door Sub-Zero refrigerator. The sunlit guest suite on the main floor enjoys a private foyer closeable with a pocket door and floor-to-ceiling windows on two walls. The ensuite bath features his-and-hers sinks beneath a wide clerestory window, a large walk-in shower with a floor-to-ceiling window of frosted glass, and a walk-in closet with built-in shelving. A powder room with vessel sink atop a vanity of Allure quartzite blue and a windowed laundry room with plentiful cabinetry and undercounter washer and dryer complete this level. The centerpiece of the second floor is a living space extending nearly the depth of the home. First is a custom-designed entertaining area with a full-width wall bar with Matterhorn quartzite countertops, sink, full-height wine cooler, undercounter wine cooler, ice maker, dishwasher, additional ZIP Hydrotap system, built-in lighting, and open French bistro shelving. Next is a media space with a large minimalist flat-screen TV with built-in sound system. It opens to a spectacular home office and sitting room surrounded by expansive windows with incredible water and golf course views through the trees. Built-in shelves in sea blue flank the modern glass barn doors. In the first corner suite on this level, floor-to-ceiling windows look out to the Atlantic, and the bath area includes his-and-hers sinks, clerestory windows along two walls, a large frameless-glass shower, and separate dressing area with floor-to-ceiling closets and cabinetry. In the second, windows also line two of the walls, and the bath enjoys a sleek, frameless-glass tub and shower beneath clerestory windows along two walls. The two share a central laundry closet with stacked washer and dryer. On the top floor, the primary suite stretches between the two sundecks—each with outdoor dining and sitting spaces—and the rear covered porch and balcony. The bedroom enjoys expansive windows showcasing the views beneath a wooden white-washed ceiling. The bath area features his-and-hers sinks under ceiling-mounted mirrors and a wide clerestory window, a frameless-glass rain shower with floor-to-ceiling window of frosted glass, and an adjacent dressing room extending the length of the bath. It leads to a windowed elevator foyer with a beverage fridge and coffee nook beside the eastern sundeck, ideal for sunrises and cocktails at sunset. Additional features of this no expense spared, upgraded 4,000-square-foot home, offered fully furnished, include an elevator to all floors, two separate dehumidified garages with built in cabinetry and golf bag storage, Toto automatic washlets, remote controlled drapes, generator and sound and security systems. Ideally located in Ocean Park on Kiawah’s rugged eastern tip, this home is just down the lane from the stunningly designed Marsh House with its eatery, outdoor fireplace, and infinity pool overlooking sweeping views of marshland straight out of Africa and in close proximity to the Beach Club. A central ribbon park is lined with hundreds of grand trees, and across the way is the 250-acre Little Bear preservation area—one of the largest barrier island conservation areas in the Southeast. A Kiawah Island Club Golf Membership is available with the purchase of this property, giving Members access to world-class golf at Cassique and River Course, along with an unmatched collection of amenities including a 9,000-square-foot fitness facility, beach clubs overlooking the ocean, five-star dining experiences, spa, boathouse, Marsh House, and a bed & breakfast located in downtown Charleston.
