Picture yourself perched among the branches of soaring marsh pines and bushy palmettos, with an immaculate Calibogue sound view stretching away to the horizon on all sides. You’ve just pictured yourself in this amazing “sealoft” vacation getaway, just a short bike ride from Harbour Town but miles away from anything you’ve ever experienced.

Climb a short set of stairs to the main floor of this elevated rotunda-style villa, and you’re in a stunning open living space with a panorama of windows drawing in the magnificent views of the water. Under soaring ceilings and skylights, the conversation area that greets you sizzles with modern style furnishings including a sofa and armchair in a palette of designer grays and teals facing a flat-screen TV.

Dining for four waits just beyond at a contemporary style table, or you can take your meals al fresco just through a set sliding glass doors and down a gangplank to the elevated patio where further seating for four can be found at a lovely wrought-iron table enjoying 360-degree views of the sound and the forest.

Rounding out the sealoft’s main living space is the beautifully modern kitchen, where wrapround granite counters and marbled tile backsplash create an elegant atmosphere bathed in light from windows all around. High-end appliances including a stainless steel French door refrigerator, Schott Ceran flat cooktop stove and professional style range hood add a gourmet pedigree to the marvelously realized décor.

The master bedroom carries the color palette, wrapping a king-size bed in floral patterns of smoky gray and surrounds it with stylishly chic furnishings. The master enjoys its own flat-screen TV as well as a ceiling fan, ample windows and an in-room washer and dryer. Easily accessible is a wonderfully modernized bathroom boasting a cavernous corner shower behind glass doors and a wide dual-basin vanity.

Contemporary style meets the timeless beauty of the maritime forests and sparkling waterways of Sea Pines in this lovely and unique vacation paradise.
