About this home
Coastal polish without the coastal crowd.
And in this case, the coastal influence is more than a turn of phrase. The redesign of the home was done by Seaside's own in-house interior designer, Erica Pierce, bringing that unmistakable coastal design sensibility to a completely different setting.
Tucked away at the end of a private dead-end road on 7.45 acres, 260 Wits End Lane pairs that elevated design with privacy, mature trees, a lake view and room to breathe, all less than 30 minutes from the beaches.
The owners renovated the property from top to bottom, and virtually nothing was treated as an afterthought. Pella windows, mahogany exterior doors, Hardie board siding, custom cabinetry, solid interior doors, tailored millwork and elevated lighting set the tone from the start.
Inside, the kitchen is warm and polished, with custom cabinetry, new appliances and a built-in breakfast banquette with storage. The living room centers around a new gas fireplace wrapped in floor to ceiling tongue-and-groove wood and finished with an antique pine mantel.
Both bathrooms were completely rebuilt. The master bath includes a large soaking tub, custom tiled shower with glass enclosure and double vanity, while custom closets, quartz surfaces, new flooring, trim, hardware, lighting and wooden blinds continue throughout the home.
Even the secondary spaces received the same attention. The laundry room features Serena & Lily wallpaper, custom shelving and a new LG washer and dryer, and a new wet bar adds another beautifully finished space for entertaining. Upstairs, an open loft overlooks the living room below and adds genuinely useful flex space without closing off the home's airy feel. It works equally well as a home office, reading room, media space or overflow sleeping area, giving the house valuable extra square footage.
Outside, new siding and paint, new porch columns, tongue-and-groove porch ceilings, new lighting and fans, a screened back porch with mahogany-finished stairs, brick walkway, crushed concrete drive and new landscaping complete the transformation. Add in the lake view and the picture is complete.
The detached two-car garage adds another layer of practicality, with plenty of room for vehicles and a truly spacious storage room across the back, substantial enough for tools, outdoor gear, seasonal storage and all the things you don't want taking over the garage itself. The covered breezeway from the garage, leads directly into the kitchen for true convenience. The HVAC and hot water heater are also brand new, along with a 4 year young roof as well.
With 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths and 2,074 SF, the house has a comfortable scale, but the setting changes the experience entirely. More than 7 acres at the end of the road create a sense of privacy that is increasingly hard to find, especially this close to the beaches.
The home was renovated to live in, not simply to sell, and it shows.
Furnishings are negotiable, making it possible to purchase the home much as you see it....
