The beach home at 1109 Diodia Court is mere steps from the ocean. The ideal lock-and-leave property, it enjoys high-end finishes, rare eligibility for a Kiawah Island Club Membership, and a private top-floor primary suite. The three-story home’s outdoor living spaces include a covered deck and separate sundeck stepping down to a walkway and a private screened porch accessed via a spiral staircase, all awash in salty sea air close by boardwalk no. 2. Inside is a thoughtfully designed floor plan with ample space. Finishes include wide-plank heart pine flooring throughout, wide white baseboard molding, walls in neutral taupes, white cabinetry and doors with rubbed bronze pull and lever hardware, and beautifully tiled showers and ceramic flooring in baths. A covered front porch and sidelighted entry door open to a foyer with a beadboard-wainscoted staircase. On this first floor are two spacious guest suites and a home office. The first suite’s bedroom enjoys a wall of windows including expansive transomed sliding glass doors that open to the sundeck and frame views of dune vegetation and the sea. A modern Murphy bed with built-in reading lights sleeps two and is flanked by tall white bookshelves. Two sitting areas lie beside tall transomed windows and closable TV cabinetry. The bath has an alcove shower and vanity with vessel sink, silver-framed double-hinged mirror, and custom tile backsplash in shades of sand and stone. The second suite sleeps two in a shiplap bed. A glass door opens to the screened porch and a windowed Jack-and-Jill bath offers a glass-doored shower and tub. Sharing the bath is the home office with its tall plantation-shuttered windows flanking a desk below floating wall shelves. Also ideal as a bunkroom, it sits next door to the home’s separate laundry with its stacked washer and dryer. An open great room with wide windows on three walls showcasing views of the Atlantic stretches across the majority of the second floor. Beneath the white-beamed shiplap ceiling of the living room, sliding glass doors open to an upper deck furnished for dining amid the sea breezes. Tall windows flank a large widescreen wall-mounted TV, and two sofas and club chairs form a spacious conversation area. In the dining room, a table seats six in comfort beneath a mid-century modern drum pendant light, a coastal country hutch with plate rack in cream and sea blue blends European farmhouse style with a beach-inspired aesthetic, and sliding glass doors also open to the deck. A breakfast bar seating four divides it from the windowed kitchen with its granite countertops, pale subway tile backsplash, sleek stainless appliances, and floor-to-ceiling cabinetry. A third guest suite is tucked away to the other side of the staircase. Its bedroom sleeps two and enjoys windows along two walls; its bath has an undercounter sink, silver-framed pivot mirror, and separate water closet with alcove shower. The primary suite sits on a belvedered top floor reminiscent of a historic coastal lookout, offering views of the vast ocean to the horizon from wide windows. Accessed via the windowed staircase or wood-paneled home elevator, the sunlit bedroom enjoys a white-duveted king bed with twin nightstands and an upholstered bench at its foot. A wall-mounted TV sits above one of two dressers offering storage space in addition to the walk-in closet and lockable owner’s closet. A windowed bath in pale hues with a soaking tub and a walk-in shower framed by floor-to-ceiling glass completes the space. Additional features of this 2,264-square-foot seaside home, offered fully furnished, include exclusively smart TVs, a premium copper half-round gutter system with an oil-rubbed bronze patina, and a grove of trees to one side providing additional privacy. It employs modernist architecture modeled on weathered sheds and barns along the coast, noted for blending homes seamlessly into beachfront environments with sloping planes, windows placed for privacy and interior light, and multi-level decks and external walkways that bridge the gap between indoor living and the natural landscape. Just a five-minute stroll away is the newly constructed Cape Club with its infinity-edge pool and expansive sundeck beside the Atlantic, oceanfront eatery, fitness studio, beach seating, and towel and bar service. Also close by is the tree-ringed Duneside pool with its pergola-shaded dining area and blue waters. A Kiawah Island Club Sports Membership is available with the purchase of this property, offering an exclusive lifestyle filled with leisure and recreation and providing Members with world-class amenities including golf at Cassique and River Course with reduced greens fees, a 9,000-square-foot fitness facility, spa facilities, beach clubs overlooking the ocean, Marsh House, and a bed & breakfast in downtown Charleston.
