5 McGuire Ct

Palmetto Hall Plantation

One of the most charming, beautifully-maintained homes in all of Palmetto Hall, 5 McGuire Court offers a terrific combination of style, space and location, resulting in a superb real estate value and opportunity in today’s market.

Located on a quiet cul-de-sac of only 8 homes, 5 McGuire Court enjoys an ideal setting with minimal traffic at the front of the property and picture-perfect views across the 4th fairway of the Arthur Hills Golf Course to a serene lagoon from the back of the home. Plus, with its professionally designed and impeccably manicured landscaping and front, side & rear lawns, the home features terrific vistas through its extensive glasswork from each room. And, in true southern tradition, the home offers outstanding exterior living space via its front and rear porches as well as its oversized screened-porch, rounding out what is clearly one of the most enjoyable homes available today.

A winding, crushed-shell-concrete, brick-lined driveway leads to a sizable motor-court for guest and day-time parking as well as to the side-entry 2-car and 1-cart gararge. The gracious wrap-around front porch is accessible from two locations and sets the tone for this “Southern Living” lifestyle home with its multiple paddle-fans, rich/dark stained wood, and custom lighting.

A beaded, solid-wood front door welcomes you into the open-style entry foyer, complete with a soaring 2-story ceiling and the introduction of hardwood flooring that runs throughout the first floor of the home. The foyer opens to the dining room to the right, to the living room straight ahead as well as to the open-spindle staircase to the left, which leads to the second floor.

The dining room features hardwood flooring, open walls into the foyer and living room, and two sets of sliding glass doors which open out to the wrap-around porch on the front of the home.

The living room features hardwood flooring, a soaring 2-story ceiling with twin ceiling fans and rear-facing window-dormers, two sets of sliding glass doors which open out to the large screened porch, and a wood-burning fireplace.

The large eat-in kitchen/breakfast room is opened to the living room with the design of a sitting-bar extension of the solid-surface countertop. This open flow in the floorplan is ideal for entertaining, providing easy access between the kitchen and living areas, including the second point of access into the kitchen which is located right off the dining room. The kitchen enjoys a continuation of the hardwood flooring as the perfect compliment to the all-white cabinets and stainless steel appliances that appoint this modern, updated space. Appliances include an Amana stainless-steel side-by-side refrigerator/freezer with ice/beverage service, Amana smooth-surface cooktop, low-profile stainless-steel variable-speed exhaust hood with integrated task lighting, KitchenAid stainless steel double-oven with microwave and convection functionality, GE profile stainless steel dishwasher and a food disposer with convenient, sink-mounted stainless-steel operator-button. The breakfast room features hardwood flooring, a triple-window to bring in the views of the backyard and golf course, and a sliding glass door that opens out to the screened porch.

The screened porch spans the width of the living room space, providing ideal outdoor living for the home. With its overhead skylights and custom-finished floor, this light and bright room is the perfect place to watch golfers as they make their way along the picturesque 4th fairway of the Arthur Hills Course.

The master bedroom suite is located at the far right of the first floor, establishing a convenient location to the living spaces while also providing great privacy from the remaining guest bedrooms. The suite features hardwood flooring, a fireplace, built-in cabinetry for television, etc., a private access to the back deck, and a lavish, oversized master bathroom. The bathroom offers tile flooring throughout with an extended vanity featuring twin sinks and extensive cabinetry space below the solid-surface counter. There is a glass-enclosed walk-in shower, a separate jacuzzi-style bathtub, a private water closet, plus a terrific double-entry walk-in closet with his/her organizers.

A center hallway from the entry foyer leads to the two guest rooms located on the left side of the first floor, providing access to a charming powder room, a coat closet as well as a large storage closet with deep shelving. The guest bedrooms each feature hardwood flooring and full-size closets, while the back bedroom also enjoys a private access to the back deck. The bedrooms share a two-part bathroom with twin doorways, a separated vanity/sink area, and a large tiled room with a walk-in shower, a bathtub with tile surround, a commode and a convenient linen closet.

The second floor of the home provides outstanding flexibility and space with its open-banister loft area overlooking the living room and the entry foyer. This large space is ideal as a play area, in-home office, billiards table, etc., and serves as a point of access to both the bonus room and private guest suite on the second floor. The bonus room is carpeted and accented with charming bead-board wainscoting, and offers a full-width window seat, a dormer window, recessed lighting and convenient walk-in attic space.

The second floor guest suite enjoys a private entrance door, a full bathroom complete with a shower/bathtub combination, full-size closet, tuck-away attic space, and three windows for attractive natural lighting.

The home also enjoys a recently-remodeled laundry/mud-room/butlers pantry with attractive, clever cabinetry that solves many different storage and organization needs. The full-size Whirlpool Duet front-loading laundry machines are “hidden” behind custom cabinetry doors for the perfect combination of full-access and full-integration to the space. There is also a full-width countertop with integrated slop-sink as well as base cabinetry below and a full bank of wall cabinets for added storage.

Exterior features of the home include a separate garage attached to the main house via a covered walkway. The oversized garage provides room for two cars plus an integrated golf-cart garage with its own separate garage door access. There is a large, unfinished room over the entire garage space with walk-up stairs, providing an excellent storage space or the potential for finishing to your own, individual needs.
