Waterfront. Updated. Move-in ready. Set behind the gates of the Islands of Beaufort with panoramic views across Battery Creek toward Deer Island, this approximately 4,173-square-foot residence offers something increasingly difficult to find: an exceptional Lowcountry setting paired with extensive recent improvements and generous indoor-outdoor living. Residents of the Islands of Beaufort enjoy an exceptional collection of community amenities, including the Belle Grove clubhouse, fitness center, pool, community docks, walking paths, playground, pickleball, tennis and basketball--adding an active, connected lifestyle to the privacy and natural beauty of this waterfront setting. Rather than taking on someone else's renovation, the next owner can immediately enjoy a home where many of the significant upgrades have already been completed. The kitchen was fully remodeled in 2025, along with the butler's pantry and laundry room, while the main-level primary suite features a newly renovated spa-inspired bath with steam shower. A whole-house generator adds another valuable improvement and peace of mind. Inside, soaring ceilings and walls of glass frame water, marsh, moss-draped live oaks and passing boat traffic. The home offers 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths and three levels of living, providing exceptional flexibility for family and guests. The main-level primary suite opens directly to a private screened porch overlooking the water, while three upstairs bedrooms capture additional marsh and Battery Creek views, including a junior primary suite with its own bath. Two fireplaces anchor the primary gathering spaces--one in the living room and another in the glass-enclosed Carolina Room--creating inviting places to enjoy the setting throughout the seasons. Additional spaces include a dedicated office/study with built-ins, wainscoting and a separate entrance; TV/media room; game room with bar; and an oversized two-car garage with workshop area. Outside is where this property truly distinguishes itself. A full outdoor kitchen, refrigerator, grill, outdoor television and private hot tub create a waterfront entertaining environment designed around the view. From the lower patio, watch dolphins and boats pass by, fish along the marsh, launch a kayak, or simply settle in and enjoy the changing Lowcountry landscape. For buyers comparing waterfront homes, this one deserves special attention: a gated Beaufort location, panoramic Battery Creek views, more than 4,100 square feet, extensive recent renovations, multiple indoor and outdoor entertaining spaces, and the major improvements already completed. This isn't simply an opportunity to buy on the water--it's an opportunity to start enjoying it from day one.
