Description
An excellent example of Georgian architecture, Le Marais has double verandas that provide commanding views of the eastern marsh. The magnificent residence has exceptional moldings, millwork and interior design influenced by Carter Hall, a historic mansion in Virginia. Interior highlights include a French antique, marble fireplace surround in the living room and imported French chandelier in the dining room that date to the 1800’s and intricate moldings in the marsh-front library. These rooms, which offer timeless luxury and comfort, are perfect for entertaining or enjoying a favorite pastime. The home’s classic kitchen has marble countertops, ample custom cabinetry, and a large central island. State of the art appliances including a professional Viking 6 burner gas range with warming trays, dual dishwashers, a subzero refrigerator and custom sinks create a chef’s dream. The charming, adjacent Butler’s pantry has a wine cooler, icemaker and bar sink. The gracious master wing, with tremendous marsh views, has a charming fireplace and separate His andHer baths and closets. There are also two generously sized guest suites with en-suite baths offering privacy and comfort. An elevator serves both floors, and the exceptional storage includes a felt lined silver closet, a cedar lined linen closet, and a walk in pantry. A Generac generator also serves the home. The three car garage appropriately resembles a carriage house. For family or guests seeking their own retreat, the “kid’s quarters” above the detached three car garage are perfect. Beyond the home’s interiors, the outdoor space is equally impressive, with a breathtaking view of the marsh and a serene fountain creating a picturesque backdrop for gatherings or moments of quiet reflection. Experience the allure of southern living paired with modern amenities in this extraordinary home on Hawkins Island, a Sea Island developed gated community.
