This recently updated villa offers an abundance of modern elegance, which is a perfect complement to the property’s outstanding location and a layout that breathes wonderful natural light throughout.

Upgrades are offered throughout the villa starting in the villa’s main living spaces, where stone flooring stretches throughout the open floor plan. In the living room, there is a deep-fiber area rug with loads of seating. A couch, love seat and side chair form a cozy conversation pit fronting a massive flat-screen TV.

The kitchen has split-level granite countertops which provide bar seating for three, then wrap around a gourmet kitchen featuring stainless steel GE appliances, custom cabinets, stone tile backsplash and elegant woodworking. Convenient to the kitchen is the dining room, with seating for six around an iron glass-topped table with sidebar for serving up tantalizing family dinners.

Throughout the downstairs living spaces, natural light flows in from towering windows to one end and sliding-glass doors stretching across the other. These doors give way to a peaceful pebble stone patio with lush greenery and views of the Har-Tru tennis courts beyond.

A downstairs bedroom could serve as a second master suite, with a roomy king-size quilted bed, flat-screen TV and ceiling fan, along with an en suite featuring a glass-enclosed stone tile shower and single basin with brushed nickel fixtures.

An upstairs landing offers a relaxing space with seating for two, complete with pendant lighting and towering windows, giving way to a pair of bedrooms.

The first, perfect for the kids, pairs two double beds in linens of lively paisley in a space with flat-screen TV, ceiling fan and private bath with single vanity and stone tile tub shower combo.

The second bedroom upstairs, the master suite, is serene and spacious. A king size bed in cerulean and white rests alongside windows that offer a view of the boughs of twisting live oaks and the tennis courts beyond. A spa-like en suite stretches a spacious double vanity toward a walk-in shower with dual showerheads and marvelous stone tiles.

And best of all, this ideal vacation getaway is located in the desirable Heritage Villas complex, featuring its own resort-sized swimming pool and just a short bike ride away from Harbour Town, the Sea Pines Racquet Club and Harbour Town Golf Links.
