Space reigns supreme in this home. With 3 bedroom, 2 bath the home also features a both formal living and dining room as well as an office off of the kitchen (the current owners double that office as a guest bedroom). The kitchen has been opened to the family room allowing for an open floor plan that still preserves the feel of an older home, and the laundry space has been relocated from the garage to the interior of the home. Each of the bedrooms is roomy, light filled, and offer tons of storage space. The master bedroom even features 2 closets- one of which is a walk-in- a rarity in homes of this vintage. Built in the 60s, the ownershave brought it into the new millennium while also holding onto pieces of the past- you'll notice that original hardware in a few places, a vintage intercom/radio system that runs throughout the house that still works! , a large vintage dining room pier mirror, towel hooks, a china hutch, and built ins that were custom made at the time the home was constructed are beautifully integrated with an opened floor plan, updated lighting, smoothed ceilings, canned lighting, and a remodeled kitchen. The kitchen features quartz countertops, a new range with down vent technology, a huge pantry, and an eat in area. The new owners added hardwoods to all the bedrooms and then refinished the flooring making the old and new seamless. The fenced yard is spectacular- and all of the mature foliage gives the illusion of a green/hedge fence when it is actually enclosed. Two large oak trees frame the front of the home and the backyard has more camellias than you can count. Winter in this backyard is as spectacular as spring! This home could easily be converted to a 4 bedroom by adding a closet in the office area! Just grab space from the garage (plenty of room where the washer and dryer were previously located). Home had a transferrable termite bond with Orkin. Sandhurst is located in the neighborhood with Orange Grove Elementary Charter original attendance zone and residents enjoy priority zoning in the lottery (please confirm if schools are important to you). Enjoy the freedom of no HOA while living in a neighborhood that has a thriving community. Easy commutes to just about anywhere in the Charleston area, you are located close to I-26 and can be at the airport, Boeing, NIWC, downtown Charleston, and Mt. Pleasant in just 15 minutes. The beaches are just 20-25 minutes away! Come check out this amazing house in an amazing location.
