2861 Anchor Watch Drive

This is an INCREDIBLE lowcountry, deepwater estate, on almost 8.5 acres, has the feeling of being in the country, all while having the security of a private, gated neighborhood just miles outside of Charleston! It has everything you could dream of! Enjoy a deepwater dock, large fenced in pool, gardening plot, fire pit, and all of the amenities that Anchorage Plantation on Wadmalaw has to offer. With 4100 sq feet, this quintessential lowcountry/Charleston-style home has 5 bedrooms, and overlooks Bohicket Creek. The views are absolutely stunning!!! The home is elevated construction with full porch on the front as well as the back, including a screened porch to dine and take in the view. The front door is flanked by classic french doors on either side. As you walk up to the home, you notice

the oyster shell walkway and impeccably maintained landscaping. As you enter the home, you walk into a grand two story foyer and can see straight through to Bohicket Creek! Antique heart pine floors are throughout the entire first floor along with custom crown mouldings, wooden floor vents, arched doorways, 6 panel solid painted doors, and tall baseboards. This floor plan is ideal with a large traditional dining room with tray ceiling, elegant formal living room with custom built-ins on both walls and pocket doors at both entrances, and then as you enter the great room, you will not believe how large and open it is. The kitchen and great room are fully open to one another and are full of light and views thanks to the abundance of windows and french doors off the back of the home. The kitchen and great room are ideal for the entertainer and chef. The kitchen has an incredible 13 foot island with granite countertops and custom pendant lighting. Cook efficiently with a 6-burner Dacor gas range with professional Wolf stainless steel hood as well as stainless steel backsplash, Electrolux double wall ovens, built-in microwave, Bosch dishwasher, Samsung refrigerator, double stainless below counter sink, and built-in wine rack. There is a crazy amount of storage in this kitchen with custom cabinetry and lots of counterspace. The kitchen's breakfast area is basically a sunroom with 8 windows overlooking the creek. The great room has a woodburning fireplace with custom-mantel, slate surround, and brick raised hearth. The master bedroom is conveniently located on the first floor and is situated for perfect views. The master has two walk in closets and gorgeous master bathroom with marble floors, subway tile standing shower, free standing cast iron tub, and dual lavatory vanity. The master bedroom has french doors to access the back porch for coffee or cocktail hour. On the other side of the first floor, beyond the kitchen, is a study that has outdoor access through french doors to the screened in porch. It can be anything from an office to a playroom, studio, anything you need! There is a very large pantry/laundry room/butlers pantry with floor to ceiling shelving for plenty of storage. The second floor has the perfect layout for guests. There are four guest rooms upstairs, two on either side of an open living area so your guests can have their own spot to relax. This home was built with all hurricane rated Andersen windows, hardi-plank siding, operational shutters, custom plantation shutters on the interior, and stained bead-board ceilings on the front and back porches. The pool is very large for a residential pool, and is fenced and gated for safety. The pool deck is wide for plenty of lounge chairs. It is situated to take in the view while you swim and is close to the dock for those afternoons you come off the water and want to take a freshwater dip! The dock is a shared dock with the next door neighbor but each side has its own floater to tie up! Who wouldn't want to share the maintenance and expense of a dock!?!? PERMIT IN HAND to add a boat lift and catwalk to access!! This is the perfect opportunity to add a lift to accommodate a large boat to store out of the water. It is the perfect and ideal situation for a deepwater home. Just off of the back of the home is a fire pit as well which makes for fun nights during the fall and spring! Below the home is a two car garage and a massive, enclosed, and dehumidified storage area that runs the entire length of the home. You could do so much with this space! You will never run out of storage or fun in this home. This is a lot of home for the price! You get so much and are still so close to Charleston! This is a must see! VIRTUAL TOUR ATTACHED!!
