This relaxed, friendly 3 bedroom home in the maritime forest of Dewees Island is a whimsical treehouse the whole family can enjoy. Built on pilings, the house stretches upward in the treetops within reach of the soothing sounds of the ocean waves on the shore. Dewees Island is very private and peaceful. The main floor of the house is built for entertaining and relaxing with a wide open floor plan. The kitchen opens into the living area, which has new skylights for starlit nights and sunny afternoons. Vaulted ceilings add to the sense of openness, and eight porches provide a wide variety of screened and unscreened options for enjoying the natural environment. You can sleep on a fabulous outdoor bed, relax in a hammock, prepare a crab feast under twinkly lights. More...Notes:The walls, floors and ceilings are beautiful, no-maintenance wood, giving the house cozy intimacy with a natural flair. The master bedroom is on the top floor for privacy and cool evening breezes. Two other bedrooms are on the bottom floor, each with their own bathrooms. If you get tired just thinking of climbing stairs, the house was designed with an elevator shaft, currently used as storage space. There's also room to add another bedroom or two to the first floor of the house. Dewees Island is a nature preserve which combines recreational activities like fishing, crabbing and kayaking with community amenities, such as a pool, nature center, tennis courts, exercise facility, and art shows at the community building. Come for the nature, stay for the community.
