Situated on the picturesque Middle Street, this remarkable property, which was originally built in 1906 as a Recreation Hall for soldiers stationed at Fort Moultrie, stands as a historic testament to the legacy of this charming beachside community. With all-new HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and lighting systems, the home seamlessly combines its storied past with contemporary comforts, making it feel like a newly constructed masterpiece. Under the visionary direction of renowned local Poppy + Shae Design Co's Leila Muller, this home epitomizes comfortable, coastal elegance. The grandeur of this residence is immediately apparent, with its striking columns, arched window, and commanding presence. A brick paver walkway guides you to the front, where the spectacular front porch awaits. Featuring porcelain flooring, a haint blue ceiling, a reinforced center hanging copper lantern, and custom mahogany double front doors flanked by 36-inch copper lanterns, this entrance sets the tone for the luxury that lies within. Step inside and be dazzled by the custom foyer with its stunning marble floor adorned with 24-carat gold inlays. The eye is drawn upward to the the 53" vintage gold leaf chandelier and the custom iron railing designed by locally renowned Frazier's Ironworks, while the white oak flooring, tall 13 foot ceilings, and beamed hallway add to the sense of opulence. The open living and dining area, along with the kitchen, offers a luxurious yet comfortable space complete with a fireplace featuring a marble herringbone tile and fluted oak surround, built-in custom wood shelving by local woodworker Benjamin Badeau, and integrated speakers, all under the glow of a beautiful Jacobella chandelier. The kitchen is truly a chef's dream, designed for both function and entertaining. The massive island with dolomite countertops serves as the centerpiece, offering seating for seven, a farmhouse sink, built-in microwave, integrated dishwasher, and a Subzero wine refrigerator. The space is further enhanced by stunning white marble countertops around the perimeter of the kitchen, a 46-inch, eight-burner Big Chill gas range with a pot filler and custom hood vent, a Subzero beverage refrigerator, marble stone countertops and backsplash with gold inlay, and an abundance of drawer space and cabinetry. An arched entry leads to the butler's pantry, equipped with an integrated Monogram refrigerator, warm maple wood shelving, quartzite countertops, a bar sink, a mini Subzero refrigerator, and preserved exposed brick. The opposite wing of the main level houses the elegant primary bedroom. This spacious retreat features a sleeping area with access to a private screened porch and patio, a sitting area, and a walk-in expansive fully custom closet with two seating areas and a custom stone island featured in the middle. The ensuite bath is a haven of luxury with a gray tile backsplash, a massive natural stone vanity with backlit mirrors, fluted cabinets, and a burlap glass front cabinet. Additional cabinetry with mercury glass fronts provides ample storage, while the freestanding bathtub and huge walk-in shower with large porcelain tiles, a rain shower head, and a separate handheld wand offer ultimate relaxation. The hallway leads to an impressive mudroom with marble flooring, built-in lockers, and access to the porch and backyard. Just off the mudroom, you'll find a multifunctional room that serves as a powder room, laundry room with an all-in-one washer/dryer, and a dog washing room complete with a raised tub and charming marble penny tile. Antique doors guide you to the upper floor, where you'll find two bedrooms, each with stunning ensuite bathrooms, custom walk-in closets, and private Juliet balconies overlooking the recreation room and featuring hand-painted custom murals by Heidi Oates. A stylish powder room with stylish tile and a study complete this floor. Head downstairs to discover a comfortable lounge space, where a wall of expansive windows invites you to observe the lively sports and activities in the adjacent recreation room. This versatile area can effortlessly transform into a cozy family room, an exciting game room, or any other space that suits your desires. The room's aesthetic is elevated by the elegant 1x8 shiplap walls and the impressive Euro Wall bidirectional sliding glass doors, crafted with hockey-grade glass, seamlessly blending style with functionality. Step into a world of timeless charm and endless possibilities as you enter the extraordinary recreation room, a space so vast it can accommodate a pickleball court. Imagine the echoes of history within these walls, where once a band played and soldiers danced the night away with their partners. The original brick encases the room, complemented by a soaring 22-foot ceiling and a meticulously restored tin ceiling, all adorned with a stunning mural. Modern touches like a 150-inch projector for unforgettable movie nights and Bahama shutters on all windows blend seamlessly with the historical ambiance. This unique space offers limitless opportunities for sports and recreation. As you continue through the lower level, a glass-front barn door reveals the posh wine cellar, showcasing the exposed original brick. This elegant room features a Subzero wine refrigerator, a wine rack, and quartzite countertops, perfect for the discerning connoisseur. Opposite the wine cellar, the laundry room boasts white picket tile, a stackable washer and dryer, and ample storage. The wellness studio invites you to indulge in good health, whether as a home gym, yoga or dance studio, or meditation sanctuary. Equipped with a built-in infrared sauna and an ensuite steam shower with fold-down teak benches, this space promises rejuvenation. Two spacious bedrooms on this level, each with custom closets and fluted oak accents on the windowsills, share a beautifully appointed bathroom. The bathroom features a grand walk-in shower, a standalone tub, dual vanities, and the ever-charming original exposed brick. Outside, the transformation continues with lush new landscaping, including bushes, trees, and flowers, all enclosed by new fencing. The former cistern retains its historical footprint, now serving as a spacious patio with stamped concrete. A detached two-car garage offers ample room for vehicles, while the FROG provides an ideal space for an office or study. At the rear of the home, the retaining wall proudly displays 18x18 pier pilings from the old Army pier. The swimming pool serves as a refreshing oasis, featuring a cascading waterfall flanked by dramatic firebowl accents and stunning olive trees. An outdoor shower adds convenience, and the back porch provides a serene vantage point to enjoy the marsh views. This property features a whole house generator and sump pump adding an extra layer of security, making this historic gem as practical as it is beautiful. Embrace the rare opportunity to own a piece of history, perfectly harmonized with contemporary living, where every detail has been thoughtfully enhanced to create a home that honors its past while embracing the future.
