Description of 1522 Hurtes Island Dr, Charleston, SC 29407
Listing details for 1522 Hurtes Island Dr, Charleston, SC 29407 : A once in a lifetime opportunity, as the last home that sold on Hurtes Island was in 1999 (and it did not have the sweeping river views that this one has). This is a very unique opportunity to live in one of Charleston's most secluded yet convenient locations. This two-story, brick, traditional home offers a wide open and expansive view of the Ashley River looking toward downtown Charleston. As you enter the welcoming foyer the marble tile sets the tone for this high quality, well built executive home. To the left is a formal living room and to the right is a large formal dining room. As you walk straight through toward the den, the views open up and immediately provide a nice calming effect. With built-ins, wooden walls, a gas log foreplace that can easily be converted back to wood, andhardwood floors, the feeling of home emanates from every crevice. Leading from the den toward the river you will find a large sunroom that overlooks the gorgeous yard (complete with irrigation system) and the riverfront. The back right section of the house features a very large chef's kitchen with more built-ins than you can possibly use. It has an island, a wall of cabinetry, double ovens, and more counter space you will find in most houses of this caliber. You can enter the large frog from here, which offers plenty of storage and room for the kids to spread out and grow. You can either access the upstairs from the frog through a hidden passageway, or return to the foyer and head upstairs from there. Once on the second floor, you will find a second den, perfect for the kids overflow or place to enjoy family movie night. It even has a separate office nook, which is a nice quiet spot for homework or a home business office. Toward the left is a large master suite complete with full walk-in closet, a large vanity, a full shower, a large garden tub, and another vanity for convenience. Back at the upstairs den and to the right you will find two additional nicely sized bedrooms, that share an upstairs bath. The hidden passageway can be accessed through the closet of the back bedroom where you can then weave your way through plenty of storage and back into the oversized frog. The backyard is a well-deserved retreat. With river breezes, clouds that roll by, and a sense of being on the coast You should visit this house before making any other waterfront purchase in Charleston.
