2022 Palmetto Bluff Idea Home

This brand-new five-bedroom, five-and-one-half bath, fully furnished home puts a sophisticated twist on Southern charm with exquisite detailing, sustainable building materials, custom finishes, and a trendsetting style that blends contemporary and traditional in the most welcoming and captivating way. Situated on a corner site in The Point neighborhood just north of downtown Wilson Village, this eye-catching home, designed by Wayne Windham, offers instant curb appeal with striking architectural components like painted brackets, board & batten gables, an abundance of Marvin windows, Hardie Artisan lap siding, standing seam metal roof, Old World tabby natural stepping stones, Old Savannah Gray brick on porches and both chimneys, and a pierced brick garden wall encasing the side courtyard. A mature live oak in front and native landscaping complete the attractive exterior aesthetic.

The same attention to detail that is evident on the exterior is also immediately noted upon entry to the home. The foyer is outfitted in striking wood veneer wallpaper and Belgian blue stone flooring. Horizontal shiplap adorns the walls in the open-concept primary living spaces, providing visual continuity, and cased openings feature transom windows to visually separate the living room, dining room, and kitchen. The living room is outfitted with a masonry fireplace with Francois cast-stone mantel and reclaimed ceiling beams. The dining room is designed for entertaining with an encased wet bar and serving station with removable buffet. The wet bar features hand-painted Carrara marble backsplash, ostrich-stamped leather handles, and custom oak cabinetry. It has two Sub Zero wine refrigerators, Sub Zero ice maker, freezer drawer, and three beverage drawers designed for ease with entertaining.

The kitchen is anchored by a marble-topped center island designed to float off the floor. A suite of upscale appliances includes a custom steel hood, Wolf six-burner range and microwave drawer, Cove dishwasher, and a fully integrated Sub-Zero refrigerator with mirrored panels. Located above the range, Nero Marquina black marble has been cut by water-jet to create a commanding textured backsplash. A summer kitchen with a Wolf grill and vent hood is located just off the main kitchen on a covered porch.

Steps from the kitchen lies an all-seasons, convertible room. This innovative room features Old World tabby porcelain flooring, Old Savannah Gray brick walls and masonry fireplace, a natural wood paneled ceiling, and live orchids in the garden wall display. A NanaWall folding glass door converts the heated room into a porch, and Phantom retractable screens convert the space into a screened porch. This room seamlessly feeds into the professionally landscaped courtyard where a firepit surrounded by Adirondack chairs await for year-round outdoor living.

The primary suite is quietly tucked away on the main level and features silk and grasscloth wall coverings, wood floors, and a sitting nook. Its ensuite bath has vertical shiplap walls, marble mosaic floors and shower, a double rain-head, walk-in shower with ambient niche lighting, cast-stone gray soaking tub, custom floating dual vanities, private water closet, and a large closet with a custom-designed closet system.

The exceptional attention to detail extends to the secondary spaces as well, including the butler’s pantry and elevator. The elevator features a glass door and uplit, hand-laid oyster shell walls, and a custom lift and lighting. The butler’s pantry features a custom, high-end industrial-style cabinet wall designed for maximum storage with roll-out storage & shelving as well as a utility sink and laundry area.

Upstairs is home to two ensuite bedrooms, a coffee bar, and a bunkroom with full bath. The bunkroom has four individually operated bunk beds, each with a USB charger and personal light. Custom tapestries enclose bunks for privacy. A full apartment over the attached garage is accessed from the all-season room and features a kitchenette, dining area and private bedroom with full bath.

This home is full of additional conveniences, including Control 4 whole home automation, a central vacuum, security system, and abundant storage throughout including a large conditioned storage closet upstairs and an attic pull-down. Furnishings were meticulously hand-selected by Kelley McRorie of renowned KS McRorie Design to complement the superior build quality and include luxury brands, intentionally sourced antique and vintage pieces, custom textiles, and high-end artwork.

An extension of Wilson Village, The Point neighborhood offers a relaxed, town-style streetscape with brick sidewalks, gas lanterns, and a private community dock with May River access. Conveniently located, this home is a short distance from Wilson Village including the Village Green, restaurants, retail shops on Boat House Row, the Canoe Club, Wilson Landing, RT’s Market, Treehouse Park, and the award-winning Montage Palmetto Bluff.
