Immerse yourself in wooded views and rustic tranquility in this architecturally dazzling sealoft villa, just a short bike ride away from the shopping, dining and excitement of Harbour Town.

Built around a central pillar, the rotunda-style living spaces captivate with tall windows that offer a panoramic view of the lush forest surrounding the open living space. Beginning with a comfortable family room, we find a plush sofa in cream and gold fronting a flat-screen TV and armchairs, for a space to unwind and enjoy the scenery.

Passing on, we find a charming reclaimed-wood dining table offering seating for four convenient to the kitchen. With bar seating for two, the wide marbled granite center island segues into a marvelously updated kitchen with state-of-the-art stainless steel Whirlpool appliances. Just around a corner a modern farmhouse-style door conceals a washer and dryer for all the conveniences of home.

This surprisingly spacious villa offers two tranquilly appointed guest rooms. In the first, a queen size bed enjoys soaring ceilings, spacious closets, floor-to-ceiling windows and private access to a full bath with spacious corner shower. In the second, a queen-size bed anchors a space with the same posh amenities as well as an en suit with walk-in shower. Both guest rooms enjoy their own access to the serene wrap-around porch, which gazes out on forest scenery and the Calibogue Sound beyond.

Following this porch around to the front, we find a blissful outdoor space offering patio seating for four beneath a wide umbrella and chaise lounges for soaking in the sun. Taking the steps to the ground floor brings you to a lower-level storage space for all of your bikes and beach gear.

Dazzling with its unique architecture, updated interiors and location amid natural beauty but just steps away from some of Sea Pines’ greatest attractions, this vacation villa represents the best of both worlds.
