In accordance with the Town of Kiawah Island Short Term Rental Ordinance, all guests understand that the approved number of bedrooms is 4, the maximum allowed occupancy is 10, and the maximum allowed number of vehicles is 5.
Nestled behind Kiawah Island’s second gate, you will find this one-of-a-kind vacation home with striking views and a private pool. Showcasing jaw-dropping vistas of the Tom Fazio-designed Osprey Point Golf Course from the front and dazzling views of Pintail Pond from the back, this home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy Kiawah Island’s natural beauty from nearly every corner. From both the back and front of the home, you will experience sunrises and sunsets unlike any you have ever seen. As the owners’ primary vacation residence, you will find no detail has been spared in the design of this selectively rented coastal retreat.
When you enter the home, you will immediately be captivated by enchanting views through the sliding glass doors. Step out to the generous rear deck, and you will find a brand-new swimming pool perfectly overlooking Osprey Point Golf Course and Pintail Pond. Comfortable outdoor seating and dining space allow you to enjoy meals and spend time together poolside while soaking in the coastal breezes, incredible views, and mind-blowing sunrises. Meander to the front of the home at sunset and watch the eighth green glow with wonder while sipping an evening cup of tea or a cocktail.
Back inside, an open floor plan provides easy flow between the formal dining room, living spaces, and kitchen. The first living area features lofty two-story ceilings, a wet-bar area, and comfortable sofas overlooking the golf course and lagoon. An open formal dining area serves as the perfect place to gather for meals with your loved ones.
Proceed into the completely renovated kitchen, where you will find custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, bar stool seating, and a breakfast nook with seating for four. Open to the kitchen, the second family room provides ample seating, including a queen sleeper sofa, and a large wall-mounted TV. Here, lounge in comfort while enjoying breakfast and expansive views of the lagoon and golf course through large windows.
This home features four comfortable bedrooms, each with an en suite bathroom. The spacious main-floor primary suite is a luxurious retreat with a king-sized bed, TV, access to the pool deck, and breathtaking water views. In the private bathroom, guests will appreciate his-and-hers vanities, a relaxing soaking tub, and a large walk-in shower. Down the hall, you will find a light-filled second bedroom with a queen-sized bed and a private bathroom with a shower/tub combo. Ascend the stairs to find the two remaining bedrooms. The first upstairs bedroom has a king-sized bed, incredible views, a TV, and a bathroom with a walk-in shower. The final bedroom has a king-sized bed, TV, and a bathroom with a shower/tub combo.
Offering some of the most unique views on the island, abundant indoor and outdoor gathering space, and every comfort you will need during your stay, this home is an ideal setting to make lifelong vacation memories. The home is approximately a 10-15 minute walk or 5-minute bike ride from Kiawah Island's pristine beach.
The home is equipped with washer, dryer, and high-speed wireless internet.
Please note that this property has exterior security cameras that view the home's front entrance and rear deck. These cameras serve to protect both the property owner and rental guests.
The pool (size 22x12) has a gas heater, so the pool may be heated in cooler months for an additional fee of $100 per day for the entire stay. It can take 24-48 hours for the pool water to reach the optimal temperature of 85-87 degrees. When the air temperature falls below 55 degrees, typically November-March, pool heaters have difficulty achieving the optimal temperature. In this case, pool heating will not be available. Contact us directly to add pool heating to your reservation.
Guest reservations of 3 to 21 nights come with a valuable credit to use towards beach gear rentals during your stay! The credit amount for this property is $300. You may use your credit for bicycles, beach chairs and umbrellas, beach carts, kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, and more – the choice is yours!
During your stay on Kiawah Island, be sure to enjoy biking on the 30 miles of flat bike trails, golfing on one of five world-class courses, playing tennis, crabbing, fishing, swimming, and boating. Many families also enjoy the kids’ camp and nature programs at Night Heron Park.
Kiawah Island is about 40 minutes from historic Charleston, famous for incredible shopping, galleries, antique stores, museums, the South Carolina Aquarium, horse-drawn carriage rides, historic landmarks, and sumptuous dining.
