Elegant Waterfront Retreat With Poolside Leisure

Waterfront living on Cat Island, with a pool at the water’s edge and the kind of layout that works as easily for a quiet Tuesday as it does for a house full of company. Inside, heart pine floors run through a light-filled living and dining room crowned by a dramatic vaulted ceiling. The kitchen is built for people who cook, anchored by a Sub-Zero refrigerator and a Dacor gas range, and it opens to a family room with a fireplace — which in turn opens to the screened porch and pool beyond. The main-floor primary suite means you never have to take the stairs. Additionally, there is a guest room with an en suite bath on the main floor, as well as a formal powder room and a second half-bath near the utility room. Upstairs, two generous bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath. A large utility and mudroom handles the sandy shoes and wet towels that come with waterfront life. The screened porch sits waterfront, steps from the pool, with a covered loggia overlooking the water and built-in seating wrapping the pool’s perimeter. Mature, beautifully maintained landscaping is supported by a full irrigation system. A metal roof and gravel drive give the place its Lowcountry character, and a detached two-car garage includes a room above, perfect for use a home office, gym or TV area.
