Lakefront Living in Briar’s Creek, A Johns Island's Gated Community
Johns Island, SC - $4,750,000
Flanked by majestic Live Oaks, Magnolias, and Pines, a long private drive leads to this exquisite stucco-and-stone residence. Enhanced by working hurricane shutters and a slate roof, the home makes a striking architectural statement within the coveted Briar's Creek Golf Community and opens gracefully onto 200 feet of private frontage on Lake Sharon.
Set on 4.09 acres, the residence, along with its meticulously designed landscapes and hardscapes, has been fully transformed into a light-filled retreat where timeless Lowcountry charm meets modern sophistication. Expansive interiors open seamlessly to porches overlooking butterfly gardens, sweeping lake views, and a saltwater pool that shimmers in the evening light.
A screened porch with summer kitchen invites year-round outdoor living and flows effortlessly into the newly redesigned high-performance kitchen. Outfitted with brand-new, never-used appliances including a Wolf 6-burner cooktop, Wolf double ovens, Bosch dishwasher, and a Sub-Zero wine cooler tucked into one of two walk-in pantries, the kitchen also incorporates the existing Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer, marrying modern luxury with timeless design.
Its thoughtful layout ensures a natural flow between indoors and out, creating an ideal setting for everyday living and elegant entertaining. The main level offers both formal and casual dining, generous living spaces, and one-level living anchored by a primary suite intentionally positioned to enjoy abundant natural light and serene views over Lake Sharon.
The reimagined primary bath is both functional and indulgent, complemented by an additional bedroom or office with a bespoke wardrobe, a full handicap-accessible bath, and a large laundry room, drop zone and workstation.
The upper level reveals a second living room and two spacious guest suites, each framed by lake views from large picture windows and charming window seats inviting quiet moments of reflection. Three unfinished spaces upstairs provide a wealth of customizable potential, easily envisioned as a second primary suite, theater, game room, or fitness studio.
The three-car garage is meticulously designed with epoxy flooring, oversized doors, and built-in storage, while ample outdoor parking provides a gracious welcome for guests. The landscaped grounds, accented by mature trees and wide lawns, extend naturally to the water's edge.
