2523 Helmsman Road, Johns Island, SC, 29455 | $1,399,000

A true four-bedroom home--designed with both flexibility and function in mind--2523 Helmsman offers effortless Lowcountry living. From the front porch, take in elevated water views and watch the tides shift as dolphins strand feed--an ever-changing backdrop that defines life here. This is where coastal design meets a relaxed, refined lifestyle. Inside, the open-concept living space feels both warm and inviting, anchored by a gas fireplace with a light wood mantel and enhanced by upgraded flooring and abundant natural light. The kitchen is designed for gathering, centered around a generous island with high-end appliances, stunning countertops, eat-in dining, and designer lighting--equally suited for quiet mornings or hosting friends. Privately positioned at the rear of the home, the primary suite offers a true retreat, complete with custom window treatments and a spa-inspired ensuite featuring a soaking tub, glass-enclosed shower, double vanities, a walk-in closet, and a separate water closet. The main level also includes a well-appointed laundry room, mudroom, storage closet, powder bath, and seamless access to the expansive front porch. Upstairs, three spacious bedrooms provide flexibility for family and guests--one with a private ensuite and two connected by a shared bath--creating a layout that lives comfortably for both everyday living and entertaining. Beyond the home, life at Kiawah River truly sets this opportunity apart. Just 30 minutes from historic downtown Charleston, this thoughtfully planned waterfront community is centered around connection to nature and elevated amenities. Enjoy The Spring House swim and fitness club with pools, spa, sauna and steam rooms, and state-of-the-art fitness facilities. Spend afternoons on the pickleball and tennis courts, explore miles of scenic trails, or gather with neighbors at the community farm and beloved Goatery. With river access, open green space, and the charm of The Dunlin, this is resort-style living seamlessly woven into everyday life. A move-in ready opportunity in one of the Lowcountry's most exciting waterfront communities.
