Overview

Beautifully situated on a peninsula of land between expanses of tranquil marshland woven through with wide tidal creeks, the three-story estate at 1 Shell Creek Landing enjoys a private crabbing dock, outdoor fireplace, and breathtaking views of the marshes from a wealth of outdoor living spaces and every window. Outside, this sun-dappled, cedar-shake residence with two wings, a new driveway of paving stones, metal roof accents, and beautifully done native landscaping offers a myriad of outdoor living spaces on every level, from two stories of covered front porches to three stories of rear balconies. Ascend the curving stone staircase with its graceful iron balustrade to the front porch and its set of windowed, transomed doors of rich wood, and step inside the pale-hued, Southern foyer. Two stories above is a Murano glass chandelier; gorgeous cherry hardwood stretches underfoot and throughout the residence. Straight ahead are French doors leading to the rear, screened terrace with white beadboard ceiling and a striking floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. An airy great room lies to the left. Walls of windows on three sides frame the landscape, beginning with the living room, where a fireplace anchors a bookshelf wall, a stunning, light-filled sunroom opens to the side, and French doors lead to the wraparound screened porch. Space is plentiful in the dining area beside the open, recently fully renovated white kitchen with its wide, plantation-shuttered windows complete with window seats, farmer’s sink, quartzite countertops, Viking double ovens, and generously-sized center island with prep sink, undercounter microwave, and Wolf cooktop. The large Sub-Zero refrigerator, wine cooler, and two refrigerator drawers are also of stainless steel, and a pantry offers ample extra storage. To the opposite side of the foyer, past the home’s beautifully wood-lined elevator, lies the bedroom wing. Here you’ll find the main-floor primary suite with windows on three sides, clean white crown molding, glass doors to the rear deck, a writing nook, and its own fireplace. The bath is lovely with a standalone cast iron soaking tub beneath a wide plantation-shuttered window, a spacious frameless-glass walk-in shower with built-in bench and extra handheld showerhead, and double sinks set into in a white shiplap vanity. Upstairs are French doors opening to a second-story deck with sweeping views, a spacious, sunny guest suite lined with windows, a second guest suite with a wall of French doors leading to a wide rear balcony overlooking the green-gold marsh and its meandering tidal creek, and the home’s second primary bedroom, complete with fireplace, windows on all sides, and a French door opening to a private corner balcony. Its bath, with its standalone soaking tub and spacious walk-in-shower, is a twin of the primary bath below. One more delightful surprise awaits. Hidden inside the steep roof bridging the home’s two wings is a two-bedroomed guest apartment. Dormered ceilings charm, and to one side glass doors lead to a small private deck tucked away under the eaves, offering breathtaking views of the open marsh, a wandering tidal creek, and treetops. Perhaps unexpectedly, given its private, nature-rich location, 1 Shell Creek Landing lies within walking distance of the Island’s popular Beach Club, beach boardwalks nos. 39 and 40, hole no. 1 of the Tom Fazio-designed Osprey Point golf course and Cherrywood BBQ Restaurant, the Egret Pond Fishing Dock, and Cinder Creek. Also nearby are the Blue Heron Pond Observation Tower and the Cinder Creek Paddlesports Launch, each within an easy four-minute drive. Additional features of this pristinely situated residence include a new whole-house Cummins generator, two new Navien tankless hot water heaters, spacious side-entry garage, and irrigation system. A Kiawah Island Club Sports Membership is available with the purchase of this property. All information deemed reliable but not guaranteed and should be independently verified.
