Exuding a traditional and fully custom feel is 659 Island Park Drive. This exceptional home was built by the renowned JD Smith. The intricate details, plantation style, and stately appearance are reflected both inside and out. Not only does this home sit on a 0.31 acre, corner lot on the well-known Island Park Drive, but it also offers clear views of the award-winning Beresford Creek Golf Course. Surrounding the home are the wonderful Daniel Island Club amenities; tennis and pickleball courts, fitness studios, clubhouse dining, and more. The back of the home features a charming courtyard, covered pavilion, outdoor kitchen, Viking grill, custom cabinetry, water fountain, and lush landscaping. This home is a one-of-a-kind and you must experience it for yourself.Upon entry, you are greeted by a brick laid floor that connects to stunning, heart pine hardwood throughout the rest of the home. Impressive trim work is everywhere as you look into both the library and formal dining room. The dining room is thoughtfully designed with easy access to the butler's pantry. Both rooms offer their own gas fireplace and access to the front porch.
Gracefully moving down the corridor you will find the living room, offering a third gas fireplace, a view of the courtyard out back, and plenty of room for guest seating. Flowing into the gourmet kitchen, you will be wowed by the charm of the antique fridge, brick accent wall, white cabinetry, spacious breakfast area, and Viking and Wolf brand appliances. The countertops are a stunning, honed Carerra marble and offer a timeless appeal to the space. A custom, walk-in pantry and additional prep sink are located just around the corner in the aforementioned butler's pantry.
The large owner's suite is also on the first floor and offers access to the side porch, his and her closets, and a large en suite bathroom with special Carerra marble selections. A nearby powder, laundry, and mudroom room round out the first floor.
Climbing to the second floor of the home, you will find a large media room, complete with wood paneling on all walls in addition to the ceiling. A space this big is perfect to serve as an additional guest suite. Down the hall is the home's second master suite. This room is impressive in size and offers access to the front porch, an en suite bath with freestanding tub and walk-in glass shower. The final bedroom is one room over and offers an en suite bathroom as well. For maximum convenience, a second laundry room is also located on this floor. An attached, two-car with automatic storage lift from the ceiling round out the remainder of the home.
Stepping outdoors, you will immediately feel at ease in this inviting backyard. The designed landscape lighting, flickering gas lanterns, and soft glowing pavilion with a gorgeous brick fireplace give you the luxurious lifestyle that comes with living in the Lowcountry.
