Set within the gated, master-planned community of The Bridges at Seven Lakes, this immaculately maintained, like-new 3-bedroom, 3-bath home represents responsible ownership at its finest, offering true peace of mind and strong long-term value for the next homeowner. The approach sets the tone: a scenic drive through the Francis Marion National Forest along quiet, wooded back roads that remain largely untouched. As you pass through the private, passcode-controlled gate, curving roads, preserved woodlands, manicured green spaces, and mature landscaping create a retreat-like atmosphere while remaining conveniently connected to the heart of the Lowcountry. One of the community's most distinctive features is its freshwater lake lifestyle a rare amenity in the Lowcountry. The Bridges at Seven Lakes is designed around seven lakes, anchored by the largest spanning approximately 65 acres. Residents enjoy lakefront views and access for kayaking, paddle-boarding, fishing, and small crafts from the community park and extended lake deck, while additional lakes are accented by up lit fountains that glow beautifully at night. The community's resort-style amenities include a pool, grand pavilion with large picnic tables and outdoor restrooms, fire pit gathering area, bocce ball and horseshoe courts, a dog park, a playground, walking trails, and controlled fob access. The community's "Meeting House" provides an enclosed gathering space for seasonal events and private homeowner gatherings. Rotating local food trucks and pop-up vendors add to the community connection while supporting area businesses. The neighborhood is ideal for golf carts, biking, and evening strolls, fostering an active yet tranquil lifestyle. While its serene, forest-surrounded setting feels secluded, the location remains commuter-friendly with access to North Mount Pleasant, Point Hope/Clements Ferry, Charleston International Airport, Historic Downtown Charleston, Isle of Palms and Sullivan's Island beaches, and Summerville/Nexton. Nearby Awendaw offers coastal dining, boat landings, local markets, and preserved landscapes, and the community is close to Roper St. Francis Medical Center and the growing MUSC medical corridor adding convenience and long-term value.
