Agent Description

This fully renovated four-bedroom home in Vanderhorst is ready for summer fun! Privately situated toward the back of the lot, it offers a coastal blend of updated interiors and inviting outdoor living, all within a leisurely bike ride of the beach and island amenities.

The backyard is built for easy living -- a new in-ground pool with bluestone surround sits within its own fenced area, set against a backdrop of mature palms and natural landscape. An elevated deck with pergola offers a separate space for outdoor dining and lounging, while the screened porch and covered front porch round out the outdoor living options.

The yard is fully fenced and professionally landscaped. Inside, the owners have completed a recent renovation, including all-new flooring, an updated kitchen, beautifully renovated baths, and fresh paint throughout. New furnishings convey, making this a true turnkey opportunity.

The main-level primary suite opens directly to the screened porch and sun deck, creating an easy connection to the outdoors. Upstairs, an open loft / landing connects the upper bedrooms and adds flexible hangout space to the floor plan. A two-car garage completes the package.

For outdoor enthusiasts, the location delivers. Kiawah's 30 miles of bike trails wind through maritime forest right from your doorstep, and 10 miles of flat, bikeable beach stretch along the Atlantic -- one of the great cycling and kayaking corridors on the East Coast. The Beach, Sandcastle, tennis, and the market are all an easy ride away. With strong rental potential, a move-in ready interior, and summer around the corner, this Vanderhorst home offers an easy path into the Kiawah lifestyle.
