47 Stoney Creek

Sea Pines

At the core, it is the stunning natural beauty and great assortment of wildlife that make Hilton Head Island the unique and unparalleled place that it is. A place where osprey, herons, egrets…alligators, dolphin, sea otters…deer, fox, turtles all thrive in this pristine Lowcountry setting. A place where pines, palmettos and oaks rise above white sandy beaches, wide bodies of robust waters and lush expanses of saltwater marshes. A place where Island-living is defined by a true sense of living on an island…surrounded by tell-tale foliage, trees and wildlife that remind you each day of what brought you here. And while many homes share the same Hilton Head Island address, a limited few are positioned to take full advantage of what the Island truly has to offer. 47 Stoney Creek Road is one of those addresses…

Consider this elegant, beautifully-remodeled marsh-view home situated in the Harbourtown neighborhood of famed Sea Pines Plantation. Renovated, expanded, upgraded and tastefully finished in late 2000, 47 Stoney Creek Road boasts a wonderfully light & bright two-story plan, complete with 3 bedrooms, an office, a wide-open great room, a truly-spectacular gourmet kitchen with adjacent family room, and, perhaps best of all, a magnificent outdoor living area comprised of a two-tier wrap-around deck ideally situated to take advantage of the 180-degree tidal-marsh vista. From its travertine stone flooring on the main level to the rich heart-pine flooring on the bedroom level to the redundant high-end stainless-steel appliances, this home boasts quality throughout as every room is washed in an abundance of natural light, making this one of the most cheery and welcoming homes available for sale in today’s marketplace.

Situated on a wide, full-size lot, the home was designed to establish a view from every room – marsh views from the back and lagoon views from the front. Mature landscaping, stately oaks, and the natural gravel and oyster-shell drivew and front walkway all set the tone for how this home is ideally integrated into its natural setting. Plus, permanent open-space to the left of the property provides an added element of privacy for this already-quiet and secluded cul-de-sac location.

The covered front porch invites you into the home where a two-story entry foyer is accessed via a pine and glass front door. The reconfigured pine-tread stairway rises to the second floor, creating an architectural statement awash with natural light from surrounding windows and an overhead skylight. 18” travertine stone tile flooring flows throughout this main level of the home as the foyer opens directly into the large, window-filled great room. Appointed with two 8’ Anderson sliding glass doors and seven oversized fixed-pane windows, the living and dining areas enjoy spectacular marsh views as they look out over the impressive rear deck of the home. Special features such as recessed-can and pendant lighting, integrated stereo speakers, and a ful-size coat closet add to the ambiance and convenience of this terrific, central room of the home.

The 2000 renovation of the home provided the opportunity for the owners to establish a superbly-designed gourmet kitchen and adjoining family room complete with a full-size wine-bar. Appointed with travertine stone flooring, this warm and inviting space features quality throughout, including an abundant array of custom Crystal wood cabinetry. From the glass-front display cabinets at the wine-bar to the built-in entertainment center in the family room to the wall of pantry cabinets in the kitchen, the fully-integrated cabinets demonstrate the beautiful marriage of form & function that makes this space so special and efficient. A full line of appliances compliment the cabinetry, including twin stainless steel Bosch dishwashers, GE Profile stainless-steel double-oven, GE Profile stainless steel freezer-over-fridge, GE Profile stainless-steel microwave, Thermador 5-burner gas stove PLUS a GE Monogram stainless steel 30-bottle wine-fridge and GE Monogram ice-maker at the wine-bar. The kitchen is also equipped with solid-surface counters with two integrated white-finish sinks, each appointed with KWC faucets. And, a combination of track and ornamental-pendant lighting along with three oversized skylightings, two sets of sliding glass windows and a glass patio door all create one of the lightest and brightest kitchens you will ever see.

The family room features a coquina-shell stucco fireplace appointed with gas logs, stone hearth and pine mantle. Flanking built-in’s on either side provide an integrated entertainment center, bookcases and convenient storage, while overhead track lighting and a central ceiling fan add to the comfort of the room. There is direct access into the 2-car garage from the family room, and a separate laundry room is located just off this wonderful space of the home.

Running the full width of the home, a two-tiered, stained-wood deck is a prominent feature of the property, providing an elevated outdoor living space with incredible marsh vistas. Complete with a series of built-in wooden benches, the deck embraces beautiful oak trees while it functionally wraps around the left side of the home and also accesses the back and side yards via two sets of integrated stairs. This excitingand inviting feature of the home creates a truly unique setting for observing wildlife, relaxing, entertaining, and so much more…

The second floor of the home includes a heart pine hallway accessing each of the three bedrooms, as well as the office, and featuring recessed and track lighting, a large picture window overlooking the lagoon, and a convenient laundry chute.

The master bedroom was expanded in 2000 to include an enviable walk-in closet, complete with heart pine flooring, vaulted ceiling, twin pocket doors and a center-island dresser. The bedroom enjoys such features as an 8’ Anderson sliding glass door opening out to a private balcony, four casement windows for outstanding natural light, and an overhead ceiling fan. The fully-updated master bathroom is appointed with travertine stone flooring, his/her extended-length solid-surface vanities with integrated sinks, extensive mirror-work, oversized tile and glass-surround walk-in shower, private commode room, and a triple-window overlooking the marsh and beyond.

The shared guest bathroom features travertine flooring, a tile-surround Kohler shower/tub, and a solid-surface-top open-style wooden vanity with integrated Kohler undermount sink.

The home features a newly-integrated (2000) home office, complete with carpeted flooring, a vaulted ceiling, a triple-window with lagoon views, large storage closet, ceiling fan/light and track lighting. This light-filled room is ideally located for privacy and would serve well as an artist-studio, in-home office, or even 4th bedroom.
