Pond views, oversized windows, and effortless storage make this three-story townhome-style condo in The Retreat at Charleston National stand out. The elevated ground level offers a two-car garage with room for a small boat and all your outdoor gear -- a rare amount of storage for a condo, and easily finished into bonus living space. Upstairs, the second-floor main living area feels like a treehouse over the water: an office/flex space leads through a butler's pantry into an expansive kitchen with a bar-height counter for easy dinners, opening straight into a large living room where wall-to-wall windows frame the pond and Charleston National golf course beyond. The third floor holds a spacious primary suite at the back with the same sweeping views and abundant natural light, plus a guestbedroom -- each with its own full bath. Enjoy the community pool and walking trails, and take advantage of optional membership at Charleston National Golf Club just outside your door. Minutes from Mt Pleasant shopping and dining and a short drive to Charleston's beaches and historic downtown -- low-maintenance living in an unbeatable location.
