98 Bass Creek Ln

The home at 98 Bass Creek Lane sits beside a tidal creek winding its way toward the Stono Inlet. A marsh extends from the edge of its more-than-half-acre property to a distant treeline.

Built on a rare bluff, the recently constructed home enjoys a pool with built-in spa along with a pool bath and outdoor fireplace in a screened porch beside the pool deck.

The home, designed in French Provincial style—known for its symmetry, steeply pitched hip roofs, and tall multi-pane windows—was constructed by noted homebuilder Steve Brenner of Solaris. It lies along a cul-de-sac with only trees and a strip of marshland to its opposite side.

Outside, a central staircase leads up past trimmed hedges as landscaped tiers step up to the house. Walls of cream-colored, lightly seamed stucco lie beneath a cedar shake roof. A wall-lined drive with extra parking space for guests curves its way to a side-entry garage.

Inside, wide-plank, dark-stained hardwood flooring runs throughout an interior trimmed in white baseboard and crown molding, wainscoting, and other millwork.

In the foyer, the hardwood is laid in a herringbone pattern. A wainscoted staircase rises to the left and a cased opening leads to the great room. At more than 40 feet wide and nearly 20 feet deep beneath a white-beamed ceiling, its views of green marshland still command the most attention. French doors flanked by rows of windows line the rear wall, opening to a balcony extending the width of the home. To one side a gas fireplace also flanked by windows anchors the living area. To the other is a wide dining space beneath twin chandeliers.

The sunlit breakfast room, currently furnished as an additional conversation space, is entered via an open doorway vestibule. With windows on three sides beneath a coffered ceiling, it’s entirely open to the kitchen. Glass doors lead to a screened porch nearly 27 feet long under a wooden ceiling. Its outdoor living space is anchored by a gas fireplace, and a windowed bath with ceiling-height paneling and oyster-framed mirrors opens from its outdoor dining room.

At more than 21 feet wide, the kitchen contains ample counter space, a single-basin sink beneath windows, and a wooden center island with a pale, beautifully veined countertop, breakfast bar seating four, and stainless microwave drawer. White Shaker cabinetry with clean-lined brass pulls include glass-fronted upper cabinet towers flanking a bar and beverage area. An SKS™ six-burner smart gas cooktop with griddle and dual range sits beneath a custom hood. A porthole-windowed walk-in pantry with custom cabinetry opens to the rear.

A finely papered powder room, laundry room with undercounter sink and stacked washer and dryer framed in white cabinetry, and delightfully formal front-corner guest suite complete the main level.

The second floor opens with a loft whose large windows invite natural light inside. A gallery overlooks the staircase. Tucked to the other side of its wall is a surprise: an interior bunkroom with paneled twin bunks on a wall of white vertical shiplap, each with a lighted niche for tablets and other guest belongings.

The primary suite and second-floor laundry take up the northwestern wing of this level. In the grasscloth-papered bedroom, more than 23 feet wide, a row of four windows overlook the marsh and its tidal pools. His-and-hers closets with custom shelving line a short hallway to the bath. Its windowed space includes his-and-hers vanities, a white standalone tub, a large zero-entry frameless-glass alcove shower with additional handheld showerhead, and a floor laid in pale tile that continues up into the wainscoting.

Two corner guest suites also sit on this level. The bedroom and bath of the rear suite both have windows overlooking the views. The front suite enjoys tall casement windows in the bedroom and its bath, whose windows overlook the branches of a live oak, enjoys a frameless-glass tub and shower.

Additional features include an elevator to all floors, full laundry rooms on both the first and second levels, an indoor-outdoor sound system, and a garage with windowed garage doors, high-gloss flooring, extra storage space for Island gear, and an adjoining workshop space.

This home is also near The Beach Club with its popular dining venue and bar as well as The Ocean Course, world-renowned for both its difficulty and famed seaside PGA Tournaments.
