You'd never know 636 Cain Drive is in the heart of Mount Pleasant and 15 minutes from downtown Charleston and the beaches, based on its private, retreat-like feel. This contemporary home in lovely Somerset Point, offers a reprise from life's busyness. Enjoy the changing tides and its inhabitants from one of the many rooms with expansive views of the marsh, in this thoughtfully designed, one-level home. Open the front door to the sunken great room with huge, sliding glass doors showcasing the tranquility of the marsh and a tongue and groove cathedral ceiling, giving the room a spacious feel. This room also has a wood burning fireplace, built-ins for additional storage, and wood floors. Off the great room, there is another flexible space that could be used as a separate dining room,office, den, or play space. Beyond this you'll find the cheery, renovated kitchen, a perfect space for cooking, entertaining and eating in. You'll love the enormous island, stainless steel appliances, white cabinets, glass subway tile, and of course, the view from the kitchen sink. Dishes won't be such a chore now that you can soak in the peace of the marsh or chat with folks in the sunroom. The sunroom is another space with many possibilities- greenhouse, napping space, or bird observatory... the options abound.The kitchen will be at the heart of it all with quick access to the garage, laundry room, powder room and finished room over garage (FROG).

Set away from the kitchen and the great room, this wing of rooms has a quiet and private feel. Along the hallway you'll find two bedrooms, a full bath and the primary suite. Bedrooms two and three offer neutral wall coverings, ample closet space, and consistent bamboo floors. But the crowning feature of this home is the renovated owner's suite with a truly spa-like quality. Perhaps it is the view of the marsh, the access to the adjoining screened porch, or the sophisticated but soft updates to the bathroom? In any case, you'll look forward to beginning and ending your day here.While this home feels like a personal retreat, you are close to all the good stuff!
