COUNTRY CLUB GOLF VIEW ... Prestwick Court is a much sought after cul-de-sac neighborhood of interesting garden homes located in the center of the private residential community of Hilton Head Plantation. All of the facilities of the Country Club of Hilton Head Clubhouse are a short walk away. This enclave of homes is ideal for people wanting private home living, yet easy to care for landscaping without a lot of grounds to maintain. A homeowners association collectively takes care of all of the yards. Courtyard walls assure privacy from one residence to the next and the hardcoat stucco construction is long lasting and easy to care for.

At the entry, stop and note the careful maintenance. A new roof, new paint, and careful landscaping make this home curb appeal in the extreme. A concrete drive offers generous off-street parking and there is easy access to the large 2-car garage. Note the interesting overhangs at the garage, the bricklined walk and drive, and the center island at the end of the cul-de-sac. A meandering walk leads to a generous covered entry paved with slate pavers, a vaulted ceiling and a skylight. There is a naturally stained wood door with leaded and beveled glass.

Step inside and you will find cherry stained hardwood floors running throughout the formal living area of the home. The foyer opens to a formal living room with a soaring ceiling, overhead skylight that washes the room in natural light and a wood burning fireplace with stone hearth and traditional mantle surround. Double divided light doors topped with an elliptical window open to the formal dining room with windows on 2 sides and easy access to the kitchen. A long wall offers ideal placement for a sideboard.

Off the foyer to the left is a cozy den/4th bedroom with a tray ceiling, bay window, and reach-in storage closet.

The home is designed around the popular kitchen/Carolina room concept. The kitchen centers on an island with a JennAir downdraft stove, a generous amount of lightly pickled raised panel cabinetry, Whirlpool double door refrigerator with thru-the-door water and ice, JennAir microwave and Kenmore dishwasher. The kitchen opens to a cozy Carolina room with a built-in desk/vanity at one end of the room. Off the kitchen is a breakfast room ideal for casual dining.

There is a half bath powder room with pedestal sink and beadboard wainscoting off the Carolina room and easy access to a utility room. A door leads outside to the breezeway and access to the garage. Patio doors off the family room lead to a screened porch with a vaulted ceiling, overhead skylight, and slate tile floor.

The bedroom configuration is ideal. On the 1st floor is the guest suite with an attached full bath with double doors that makes this an ideal 2nd powder room. Note the raised panel wainscoting, huge walk-in closet, and tile vanity.

At the end of the hall is the master suite with a huge walk-in closet, built-in desk and lots of windows. The bath features a tile double vanity, stall shower, large whirlpool tub set in a tile deck and a private European style water closet. The master closet is huge.

Stairs from the foyer lead to a 2nd floor reading loft overlooking the living room with a wall of built-in bookcases and base cabinetry. Note the interesting art display niches off the stairway. Double doors off the loft open to bedroom #4 with en suite bath, reach-in closet and views out to the 9th hole of the Rees Jones designed Country Club of Hilton Head Course.

To the rear of the home is a 2nd covered porch with slate floor and easy access off the living room. This covered porch opens to a private backyard with views of the golf ourse.

Notable features of this fine home include garden home lot configuration, Peachtree Ariel windows, hardwood floors, 2-zone HVAC system, skylight, wood burning fireplace, Carolina room kitchen design, and whirlpool bath.
