215 High Dunes Ln , Kiawah Island, SC 29455(Charleston County)

The 5,664-square-foot home is awash in fine finishes and thick trim, all in pale-hued neutrals. Designed by esteemed Kiawah architect Wayne Windham as a stunning mix of clean-lined modern and classic trimmings, it all starts with a classic exterior of cedar shake walls, copper roof, gas lantern-flanked wooden carriage garage doors, curving drive, entry staircase in Savannah gray brick with graceful iron balustrade, and covered front porch with a barrel-vaulted ceiling of wooden beadboard trimmed with thick white molding, square columns, and Savannah gray brick flooring laid in a herringbone pattern.

Inside, thick crown and baseboard molding run throughout, and wide-plank hardwood flooring stretches throughout the living areas, primary suite, and in-law suite.

Tall mahogany entry doors with expanses of glass open to a two-story foyer with striking linear chandelier and windowed staircase surrounding an elevator shaft clad in vertical shiplap. It opens to the light-filled living room, where a wall of modern, black-framed windows and glass doors open to a cable-rail-lined pool deck and views of serene marsh and blue waters stretching nearly to the horizon. Beneath the coffered ceiling with its pale gray beams is a gas fireplace with marble surround and brick firebox flanked by custom built-in drawers and thick shelving of pale wood. Additionally, within the custom cabinetry is a hidden pop-up television, giving you the affordability to either watch television or store it away at a moment’s notice.

The dining room, open to both living room and kitchen through wide, uniquely curved cased openings, contains one of the home's showpieces: a gorgeous, wall-to-wall wet bar in glossy nautical blue with a large central bar mirror, brass bar sink, and lighted glass-fronted cabinetry with hidden beverage refrigerator.

Twenty feet deep under a white-beamed ceiling of white shiplap and modern pillar-candle chandelier, the room also enjoys a wall of floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the marsh views.

The home’s immaculate kitchen features clean-lined, pale-hued, underlit cabinetry, a beautiful quartzite-veined backsplash, and tall windows along two walls, including over the Blanco® farmhouse sink. A two-sided, pub-height breakfast bar with waterfall oak top offers additional seating beside a separate quartzite center island with prep sink, undercounter drawer microwave, and contrasting cabinetry of mid-toned oak. The top-tier appliances include a Wolf® six-burner gas cooktop with griddle and custom hood, Wolf steam oven, Wolf convection oven, and paneled Sub-Zero® refrigerator. A walk-in pantry with built-in, floor-to-ceiling shelving offers yet more storage space. A large sliding pass-through window opens from the kitchen to the screened porch.

A glass door from the kitchen opens to the property’s spectacular screened porch with its gorgeous wooden beadboard ceiling, gas fireplace set into a floor-to-ceiling brick hearth wall, summer kitchen with hood-topped stainless grill set into quartzite counter-topped brick, heating units for cooler weather installed along the crown molding, and a transomed glass door leading to the pool bath. The views from this outdoor living space are simply incredible.

The primary suite encompasses the eastern wing of the main level. Around a quiet corner, double doors open to a private foyer leading to the bedroom to one side, bath to the other, and a custom walk-in closet. The bedroom enjoys the most breathtaking views with windows on two walls under its white-beamed ceiling, including a graceful bay window niche overlooking a majestic live oak and the marsh beyond is the showpiece of the room. Juliet doors open to its spacious, high-ceilinged bath gorgeous in pale marble and white. His-and-hers sinks under separate mirrors flank a makeup vanity, and there’s a sleek standalone tub in windowed nook with plantation shutters and a generously sized frameless-glass, zero-entry shower with a high window, built-in bench, and separate handheld showerhead, all beneath a gracefully modern Belterra chandelier.

Also on the main level are a spectacular powder room with plantation-shuttered window and vessel sink atop bottom-lit floating cabinetry and rock crystal pendants. A and a large laundry room with undercounter sink set beneath a sunny window amid abundant storage cabinetry in light gray. An elevated washer and dryer, and an additional SideKick pedestal washer for small loads.

The in-law suite, accessed via a windowed second-story colonnade, enjoys its own windowed laundry room with stacked washer and dryer. Its bedroom, with pale walls of vertical shiplap and windows on two sides, contains a sitting area and a coffee nook with sink and paneled undercounter beverage refrigerator. A door opens to a windowed bath with his-and-hers sinks, a sleek modern bathtub and shower combination behind frameless-glass doors, and walk-in closet.

On the second floor, along an upper gallery with curving rail open to the foyer and staircase, can be found the home’s media room, fitness room, which could also be used as a third bedroom, dry sauna, and two more luxurious guest suites.

In the center, barn doors of pale-stained oak open to the media room, where a niche with twin windows overlooks the vast marsh and its tidal creeks. To one side is the corner guest suite, with its own built-in twin size bed window seat and twin windows showcasing the views, thick built-in shelving, and a bath with light-framed mirror and a sleek bathtub and shower combination behind frameless-glass doors. A walk-in closet with built-in shelving completes the suite. To the other side, the second guest bedroom and closet enjoy the same appointments. Its bath features a wide frameless-glass, zero-entry shower.

The fitness room finishes the second level. Enjoying windows along two walls, exercise flooring and mirrors, and a glass-doored dry sauna, it has its own walk-in closet and access to a windowed hallway bath with a spacious, frameless-glass zero-entry shower. This room can easily be converted into a fifth large bedroom or bunk room.

Additional features of this impeccably built home, offered partially furnished, include an elevator to all floors; a ground floor with shiplap-wainscoted mudroom, icemaker, dog wash and bike storage, and additional plentiful storage space; extra parking space in the drive; sound, security, low-voltage landscape lighting, mosquito abatement misting system, and irrigation system; tankless hot water heater; geothermal HVAC system; and impact-rated windows and doors. Located enviably near Marsh House, the world-renowned Ocean Course of PGA and War by the Shore fame, Ocean Course beach access, and the Ocean Park ribbon park with its hundreds of grand trees, it also enjoys gentle wafts of salt-air breezes from the Atlantic Ocean bordering the neighborhood.
