Enjoy the tranquility of gated luxury living in a fabulous location just steps from the beach in this wonderfully updated vacation home filled with natural light and coastal chic décor.

The details dazzle throughout the home, from the rich exposed paneling of the formal dining room t the updated fixtures in each guest suite. In the great room, they combine beneath a soaring ceiling to create an atmosphere of pure comfort, with dual armchairs, a sofa and a chaise facing a decorative brick fireplace and flatscreen TV. In the nearby dining room, set off by columns, seating for six is draped in lush sunlight from a skylight above.

Joining these open spaces are a pair of delightfully tranquil smaller spots for quiet contemplation. At the front of the villa, tucked behind French doors, a cozy den offers a sleeper sofa and ceiling fan before floor-to-ceiling windows gazing out on the front courtyard. At the rear, sliders give way to a peaceful wooden deck at the edge of a relaxing lagoon.

Joining this atmosphere of coastal relaxation are homey comforts that create vacation bliss. The sprawling kitchen, set in granite counters and stocked with updated stainless steel appliances, wraps around to a small breakfast nook with a washer and dryer concealed nearby.

Three bedrooms marry spaciousness with a dedication to comfort and luxury. The master suite enjoys windows on two walls, providing a panoramic view of the lagoon beyond. In addition to a king size bed, an armchair, ceiling fan and a flat-screen TV, this suite offers a private bath with marbled granite single-basin vanity and walk-in shower.

A second guest room bathes a spacious queen-size bed in natural light from a unique nook of windows, where an armchair provides a quite spot for relaxation. In addition to a flat-screen TV, this suite offers a private bath with marbled granite single-basin vanity and cavernous walk-in shower.

A third bedroom sees a double-over-twin bunkbed set at the heart of a light and airy suite enjoying flat screen TV and private bath with walk-in shower.

Within a few steps from its front door is one of two Turtle Lane complex pools. A short walk leads to the private beach path exclusively for Turtle Lane guests. Also, the Sea Pines Beach Club is close by as well as golf on two of Sea Pines championship courses.

Fireplaces are decorative and not for guest use. Homes with a pool or spa may be heated and an additional charge will apply. Please inquire at time of booking.
