Home Description
Nestled on the highly coveted Russell Creek, this charming Deepwater cottage presents a rare opportunity for waterfront living. Lovingly constructed by its current owners in 1972, this one-and-a-half-story home at 7897 Russell Creek Drive exudes coastal charm and offers breathtaking views of the Deepwater creek from most rooms.Tucked beneath the shade of majestic oak trees and swaying coastal palms, this low-elevation property offers easy access with minimal stairs. Step inside to discover 1100 sq. ft of heated living space, thoughtfully designed for comfortable living. The home features three bedrooms and two tastefully updated bathrooms boasting granite countertops. The open concept living, dining, and kitchen areas flow seamlessly, enhanced by the modern touch of LVP flooring. Dual sliders invite you to the expansive 23 x 24 sq. ft screened porch, complete with ceiling fans - an ideal spot for enjoying the tranquil surroundings. The master bedroom also provides direct access to both the entrance deck and this inviting screened porch.
Extend your outdoor living onto the 10 x 26 sq. ft entrance deck or the Creekside screened porch onto a 16 x 14 sq. ft deck with stairs leading to the lush yard. A convenient chair lift provides easy access to the upper level. Peace of mind comes with several updates, including granite countertops in the kitchen and baths, PEX and copper piping, a new ductless HVAC system installed in 2017, and a new roof from 2014. The property also benefits from a termite bond and Ring security system (ADT security is present but currently disconnected). Adding significant value is a detached garage, built approximately 12 years ago, featuring a spacious four-car carport and a storage area below. Above the garage, discover a delightful, fully furnished apartment with a private entrance, offering an open living room, small dining area, a comfortable living area, and a full bath - perfect for guests or potential rental income.
For the avid boater, the deepwater access is unparalleled. A short 3 ft x 43 ft walkway leads to a fixed pierhead with relaxing benches and an aluminum ramp to a 12 x 16 floating dock - with ample space to expand. The location in front of the fixed pierhead easily accommodates larger boats. Enjoy a quick boat ride to Steamboat Creek and the North Edisto River, opening a world of possibilities for exploring the barrier islands and creeks.
Imagine unwinding while witnessing stellar sunsets and feeling gentle sea breezes in this idyllic setting. The yard is adorned with magnificent live oaks and mature coastal foliage, creating a truly serene ambiance.
