Nestled at the end of the cul-de-sac in the Beaver Creek neighborhood of St. James, a delightful, blue front door beckons you into a storybook setting with shade trees, a water garden, 4-foot stone wall, and a wooden gate garnished with greenery. The bright and happy mood carries into this 3-bedroom plus a bonus room, 2 ½ bathroom home room where ¾” hardwood flooring welcomes you and guides you through the open and spacious living room. The living room features a double vaulted ceiling, gas fireplace surrounded by built-in shelves and cabinets, and broad windows topped with a half-moon transom that fills the room with natural light and grants you a relaxing view to the serene front yard. Follow the oak plank flooring into the roomy dining area that is open to the living room, kitchen, and connects to the screened-in back porch. The well-appointed kitchen offers plenty of granite countertops that wrap around the kitchen with abundant cabinet storage and a peninsula filled with drawers. A built-in desk makes a great place to explore new recipes, balance your checkbook, or sip on a cup of java while enjoying the winsome setting of the backyard. The main floor also includes the tucked away master bedroom with a soothing, neutral color palette, walk-in closet, and a large bathroom with walk-in shower. Your retreat can stay private as guests have access to a charming powder room with a decorative vanity and raised bowl sink. Upstairs, there are two guest bedrooms that share a full bathroom. Let your imagination roam with the uses of the flexible bonus room: a fourth bedroom, media room, fitness room, playroom, or hobby room. Closets and attic accesses in two of the upstairs rooms provides ample storage space. The comfortable Carolina weather will allow you nearly year-round use of the cozy screen-in back porch which is enhanced by the private back yard and the calming sounds of your own water feature.

Supplements: Additional elements that will keep your storybook charm protected from huffing and puffing include hurricane shutters, a new roof, a new HVAC unit, dehumidifier in crawlspace, and a termite bond. If you have been looking for a sweet, private, and woodlands type setting in St. James Plantation, then you have found it!
