Experience unparalleled coastal living in one of the most unique waterfront settings on Hilton Head Island. Situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the home features 4 ensuite bedrooms and 2 half baths, breathtaking direct views of the Port Royal Sound, the Intracoastal Waterway, and Pine Island. Expansive glass sliders span the back of the home, flooding the interior with natural light and creating a seamless connection to the water beyond. The main level offers an open-concept kitchen and living area with soaring cathedral cantilevered ceiling, exposed beams, a gas fireplace, pass-through wet bar, and an open loft overlooking the space. A dedicated den/office with custom built-ins provides a serene workspace with stunning water views. The main-level primary suite offers a spacious bath, walk-in closet and views of the sound. The second level includes three additional bedrooms, each with its own ensuite bath, including a secondary primary suite with a cozy fireplace, heated bathroom floors and soaking tub. Additional highlights include a walk-in cedar closet, tankless "heat-on-demand" water heater, alarm system and 2-car garage with epoxy flooring. A true boater's paradise, this property is one of only 11 homes on the island with a private dock and dedicated boat-lift space with pilings and electrical outlets already installed. After a day on the water, unwind on the expansive back deck or enjoy the outdoor hot tub/spa while watching the tides change and local wildlife pass by. Located within the prestigious Hilton Head Plantation, Ribaut Island residents enjoy exclusive access to a community pool, tennis and pickleball courts, and additional dock facilities. Whether kayaking from your private dock to Pine Island or fishing in the sound, this exceptional home offers the ultimate Lowcountry waterfront lifestyle.
