12 Sheffield Court Beaufort, SC 29907

In the waterfront community of Cat Island, just a 10 minute drive from downtown Beaufort, at the end of a quiet street is a most enchanting red 2 story cottage with a white picket fence, graced with a large front porch and covered balcony above. Down the driveway is a matching carriage house with 2 car garage, and with greenspace on one side, and their adjacent lot on the other with a lowcountry signature old Live Oak tree, the dream house becomes real. Inside, tall ceilings and hardwood floors cover the main level with casement openings for the living room, dining room, and family room with fireplace, which are all served by the open kitchen. A bedroom at the end of the hall with ensuite bathroom has a decorative door which can create a half bath with hall access. Upstairs are two more bedrooms with tall ceilings, one of which could easily become a nursery or office, and the other serves as a primary bedroom with its own ensuite full bathroom as well as a private balcony and 2 separate closets. With beautiful views, it's a retreat in itself. Off the back of the house there is a screened porch with ceiling fan and views of the large side yard or the completely fenced patio and garden behind the house where you will also find the stairs accessing the lovely carriage house apartment over the two car garage. The adjacent lot has plenty of options from a large yard for children or pets to enjoy, to creative plans for a beautiful outdoor entertaining area, or even the option of expanding the house by building on another wing. A short walk to the tennis courts and resort pool area adjacent to the golf course driving range, or go just across to the Clubhouse for their wonderful dining options, large covered patio out back, and incredible Pro-shop for all your golfing needs. See a beautiful video (attached to this listing) which showcases Cat's golf course and their spectacular views of the Lowcountry. The Cat Island community is vibrant and very active for those who want to be engaged with their neighbors and social members. From Cat Island you are only a few minutes away from the popular Port Royal Farmers Market every Saturday morning, or travel less than 30 min to the 5 miles of pristine ocean beaches of Hunting Island State Park.
