PRIVATE LANAI ... The Pineland Subdivision is centrally located in the heart of the private residential community of Hilton Head Plantation. All of the recreation amenities of Dolphin Head and Spring Lake are a short bicycle ride away. This area of the plantation is located on high ground and is heavily forested with mature hardwoods and pines.

At the entry, a concrete driveway offers generous off-street parking and easy access to the large 2-car garage. The landscaping is immaculate but designed in a low maintenance, easy-to-care-for design. An automatic sprinkler system cares for all of the mature plantings.

This one owner home was planned and lovingly built by well-known island homebuilder, Kayser Custom Homes. There is a high portico entry and an aggregate walk that leads to the generous covered space. There are double entry doors with beveled and leaded glass, all topped with a divided light circlehead window.

Step through the double entry doors and the foyer is defined by cased openings, a column, and a low dividing wall. Hardwood floors run from the foyer through the living space of the home and are ideal for accenting your rugs.

Off the foyer is a formal dining room with a tray ceiling, dental molding, and a large triple window topped with a transom that washes the room in natural light. The room is finished with chair rail, and there is generous wall space for furniture placement. The foyer opens to a formal living room with another tray ceiling, more transom glass and double patio doors that open to the screened lanai. Also off the foyer is a half bath powder room with pedestal sink, as well as an entry coat closet and china storage closet.

The home is designed around the ever popular kitchen/Carolina room concept. A pocket door from the dining room and foyer, as well as a cased opening from the living room, opens to this warm and charming space. The kitchen has a generous amount of raised panel laminate cabinetry, all topped in a solid surface Corian material with diagonally set ceramic tile backsplash. There is a full complement of appliances including Amana Ceran surface range, GE oven, GE Spacemaker microwave, GE Profile double door refrigerator with thru-the-door water and ice and a Whirlpool dishwasher. Overhead is a large skylight that brings in natural light and there is a walk-in pantry. The kitchen opens to the Carolina room but is separated by a raised bar that is ideal for barstool entertaining. The Carolina room centers on a gas fireplace with flush hearth and traditional mantle, and there is another skylight for natural light. Double patio doors open to the screened lanai, and all of the windows and doors are topped with transom glass. Off the Carolina room is an octagonal breakfast room with hardwood floors running throughout all rooms.

The home is designed with a split bedroom plan. The master bedroom suite is located off the foyer and is generous in size and accommodates a king sized bed and other furniture placement. The master bath is modern by all standards with deep whirlpool tub set in a ceramic surround. Overhead is a vaulted ceiling with double skylights, and plantation shutters cover the windows. There is a ceramic tile walk-in shower, double bowl vanity, private European style water closet, linen closet, and his and her walk-in closets with double rods, shelving and pocket doors.

At the opposite end of the house, there are two nice sized guest bedrooms sharing a Jack and Jill style bath. An office/study with closet is located at the end of the hallway.

There is easy access to a utility room with deep sink, GE washer and dryer, reach-in closet, and access to the garage beyond.

The home is located on a very private wooded lot. Off the rear of the home, with access from the Carolina room and living room, there is a screened lanai with double overhead paddle fans and is the perfect setting for insect-free dining and entertaining.
