Some vacation homes offer a respite from your journey. Some are a journey unto themselves. Such is the case at 26 Old Military Road, situated on a quiet street and enjoying magnificent golf views, an inspired sense of airiness, and delightful surprises around every corner.

Wide pine flooring beckons your inward, drawing your eye immediately to the lush sunlit openness of the great room. Here a wide skylight set in an exposed-beam vaulted ceiling illuminates a space with a Savannah brick decorative fireplace adding a homey feel to a space with sofa, loveseat and flat-screen TV. This same expanse houses the dining room, where a farmhouse-style table is set for 8, but could easily seat more.

A similarly grand space can be found further on, anchored by a spacious den with a sectional sofa fronting a flat-screen TV and offering scenic views beyond. A separate decorative fireplace serves as the transition point to the magnificently open kitchen, where a wide island of black granite boasts bar seating for four, with wide counters and updated appliances surrounding.

But what sets this amazing property apart is merely hinted out through the bevy of windows and doors that fill these spaces with lush natural light – the majestic outdoor living spaces. Wrapping around the home and offering breathtaking views of the 5th hole at Harbour Town Golf Links, these spaces provide opportunity for quiet reflection, late-night conversations and all-day enjoyment. Enjoy the crackling flames of a full fire table on one patio, or the rustic fire pit beneath the boughs of a mature Japanese maple. Or spend the day in sun-soaked splendor on the brick-paver pool deck, ringed by greenery for privacy and filled with the tranquil splashing from the water feature.

A separate entrance from the pool deck passes through a full laundry with washer and dryer, half-bath and extra fridge for convenient access.

There are five guestrooms in total, each carrying the theme of sunlit splendor. Two on the first floor share a jack-and-jill en suite with dual-basin vanity, tub and shower. In one, dual twin beds enjoy a private flat-screen TV and ceiling fan, while the other pairs those same amenities with a queen bed. A third ground floor room boasts a full suite, with queen-size bed, ceiling fan, flat-screen TV and en suite bath with tub and shower. The remaining guest rooms can be found on the second story. In one, lush carpeting lends incredible comfort to a suite whose tall windows exult in scenic beauty. A king-size bed anchors the space, which boasts a separate crib, flat-screen TV, ceiling fan and a gorgeous private balcony set among the treetops. The suite’s private bath indulges with dual-basin vanity and a spacious walk-in shower.

Set in lush carpeting, the final guest suite can be accessed through an expansive den with vaulted ceilings set with skylight, plush sofa and flat-screen TV. The suite beyond boasts a carriage house feel, with vaulted ceilings, king-size bed, and flatscreen TV concealed in an armoire. One set of doors gives way to a breathtaking balcony offering elevated golf views. The other, to a spa-like en suite with his and hers vanities, soaking tub with jets, and expansive walk-in shower.

For an unforgettable vacation experience, this home is both your destination and the start of a memorable journey you and your family will remember forever.
