WHY WAIT FOR NEW CONSTRUCTION? This almost-new home in Hilton Head Lakes already has what new builds charge extra for - approximately $65,000 in builder upgrades, plus another $60,000 in owner enhancements. That's roughly $125,000 in upgrades already done, so you skip the build wait, the upgrade-sheet sticker shock, and the blank-slate landscaping.

Inside, the chic coastal vibe is ready from day one: sparkling quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, durable LVP flooring, and a cozy electric fireplace anchoring the main living space. Custom shiplap in the great room and thoughtful designer touches throughout give it a finished feel no spec home delivers out of the box.

The well-designed floor plan offers three bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths, plus a versatile den and an airy loft - perfect for a home office, craft space, or additional flex area - with the laundry conveniently upstairs. Outside is where it pulls away from new construction entirely.

The expansive 340-square-foot hard-roof lanai, finished in beautiful porcelain tile, is a true extension of the living space - made for relaxing, dining, and entertaining. Morning coffee on the inviting front porch, Lowcountry sunsets in the evening. Practical touches shine too: a one-car garage with ample storage plus an added carport, both finish

ed with high-end polyaspartic flooring, a custom paver grill pad, and a dedicated pad for the garage storage container. And the lifestyle is already here - Hilton Head Lakes' resort-style amenities, leisure trails, and scenic lake views, no waiting for the community to be built out around you. New-construction feel, without the new-construction wait - this home is ready when you are.
