Boasting immaculate updates that reflect a modern sense of Southern charm, this pet-friendly villa dazzles with its designer finishes and its ideal location just steps from the beach and Plantation Golf Club.

The living space unfolds before you as you enter through glass doors, revealing formal dining for your six on one side, and a wide center island with bar seating for three. Behind this island, a blissfully opened galley-style kitchen offers a full suite of gourmet appliances and a wonderfully open layout, with a concealed washer and dryer nearby.

These areas flow into the expansive great room, highlighted by ceilings that soar to elevated skylights. A sleeper sofa and multiple end chairs face the wall-mounted flat-screen TV flanked by stylish objets d’art. French doors at the far end open to a screened-in patio offering al fresco dining and tranquil lagoon views.

The first guest suite, enjoying abundant natural light from doors leading to a broad sundeck, sees a king-size bed set before a board-and-batten accent wall in a space with ceiling fan and en suite bath with walk-in shower. A second suite with king-size bed enjoys a flat-screen TV, French door access to the front courtyard, and en suite with walk-in shower. The third and final suite, with tub and shower in the private bath, boasts dual twin beds.

This wonderfully updated villa, set at the heart of what makes Sea Pines so enchanting.
