Elegant Lowcountry Retreat | Marsh Views, Decks & Elevator

Summary:

A Bunting's Bliss



The Space:

Welcome to A Bunting's Bliss, a spacious Johns Island retreat where Southern charm meets the beauty of the Lowcountry marsh. Named for the colorful buntings and other birdlife that bring the surrounding marsh to life, this nearly 4,850-square-foot home is a place to slow down, gather together, and enjoy the ever-changing landscape just beyond the windows.



With 5 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, two levels, and space for up to 10 guests, there is room for families, friends, golf groups, girls' getaways, and multigenerational stays to spread out comfortably. A grand entrance opens to multiple living spaces and cozy nooks, giving everyone a choice between gathering together and finding a quiet corner of their own. An elevator connects the three levels, while stairs are also located throughout the home.



The gourmet kitchen is made for gathering, with double ovens, a stovetop, granite countertops, and window seating overlooking the marsh. Keep an eye out for herons, egrets, ospreys, colorful buntings, and other coastal birds - or use the telescope for an even closer look. At high tide, the water can reach the edge of the yard, and you may even spot dolphins playing in the marsh waterways.



The home's Southern character continues into the comfortable bedrooms, while the spacious primary suite offers a dreamy retreat with a clawfoot soaking tub and separate shower featuring a fast, temperature-controlled start. After a beach day, the outdoor shower makes rinsing off sand easy before settling back into the comfort of home.



Outside, multiple levels of decks create beautiful places to enjoy your surroundings - from morning coffee as the sun rises over the marsh to an evening drink while the sky turns golden. The natural setting changes with the tides, seasons, weather, and wildlife, making the view different every time you step outside.



A Bunting's Bliss offers a peaceful home base near Kiawah Island, Freshfields Village, and Charleston. A beach access boardwalk is approximately 1.5–2 miles away, while nearby golf, restaurants, shopping, biking, and outdoor adventures make it easy to experience the best of Johns Island and the surrounding coast.



Venture into historic Charleston for its renowned restaurants, architecture, shopping, and cultural events, or plan your stay around annual favorites including the Charleston Wine + Food Festival, Credit One Charleston Open, Cooper River Bridge Run, Charleston Jazz Festival, Spoleto Festival USA, MOJA Arts Festival, and Food & Wine Classic Charleston.



With 24/7 guarded gate access, a peaceful marsh setting, generous living spaces, and an ever-changing view filled with Lowcountry wildlife, A Bunting's Bliss offers something beyond a place to stay - it gives you a front-row seat to the natural beauty of coastal South Carolina.
