Property Description

Completely renovated and move-in ready, this stunning home at 1538 Southwick Drive on Johns Island offers high-end upgrades, new major systems, and turnkey peace of mind in one of the Charleston area's fastest-growing locations. Just minutes from Downtown Charleston, James Island, Kiawah, and Folly Beach, this property delivers both convenience and the Lowcountry lifestyle buyers are searching for.No detail was overlooked in this full renovation. Major system upgrades include a brand-new architectural shingle roof on both the home and detached garage, a new HVAC system with all new attic ductwork, new PEX plumbing, and a new water heater. The crawlspace has also been improved with a new vapor barrier. No HOA & X flood zone (no flood insurance required).Inside, the home features waterproof LVP flooring throughout, creating a seamless and durable living space. The kitchen is designed to impress with quartz countertops, soft-close cabinetry including a pantry cabinet, a stylish backsplash, and updated lighting and fixtures. The living area is anchored by a beautifully updated wood burning fireplace with new custom-milled mantle and quartz hearth, along with built-ins on either side with outlets ready for a mounted TV setup.

Both bathrooms have been fully upgraded with new vanities and custom tile showers complete with niches, offering a clean, modern feel. Additional interior improvements include new interior doors, trim, custom wood shelving in all closets, and a thoughtfully designed drop zone in the foyer.

Exterior upgrades continue the theme of quality and functionality with Hardiplank cement board siding on both the home and garage, double-hung replacement windows, a new front door, and a storm-rated sliding door leading to the brand-new back deck--perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The detached garage has also been enhanced with new outlets, switches, and lighting.

The professionally landscaped front yard features drip-line irrigation, a majestic live oak tree that has been recently been pruned, and a brand-new horseshoe driveway with a front walkway finished with clean metal edging--offering both curb appeal and convenience.

With extensive upgrades, modern finishes, and strong demand in the Johns Island market, this home presents a rare opportunity for buyers seeking a fully renovated property with no deferred maintenance. Schedule your showing today--homes with this level of finish and location do not last long on John's Island, especially under $500k!
