1576 Terns Nest Road, Charleston, SC, 29412 | $785,000

Designed by an architect as his personal residence, this unique modern home is just a few minutes away from Folly Beach, and less than 20 minutes to downtown Charleston. A complete renovation included many thoughtful custom details throughout the home that give this property an exciting personality. The main living area is open and has a vaulted ceiling with large windows, offering abundant natural light and views toward the marsh. The kitchen offers quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances, with a clever retractable spice rack that disappears to provide additional counter space. Just beyond the kitchen, a separate TV room provides an additional living space with direct access to a side balcony - ideal for relaxing or entertaining. Custom carved panels conceal storage options in the main living area and provide an artistic mural that harmoniously ties the spaces together. The primary suite boasts tranquil views of the lagoon behind the property and features a large walk-in closet and bright en suite bath with a large shower and double vanity. Two other bedrooms share an additional full bath off the back hall. This elevated home features a vast amount of under-house storage and workspace, with a covered carport off the left side. The backyard retreat includes a waterfront patio and lawn, with beautiful trees framing the lagoon view. 1576 Terns Nest Road offers the best of both worlds - easy access to the beach and close proximity to shopping, schools, and all that downtown Charleston has to offer. This home was a true labor of love with too many custom designed details to list here - it needs to be seen in person to appreciate the meticulous and thoughtful design!
