A magnificent residence exuding architectural splendor and meticulous craftsmanship sits on a lovely cul-de-sac across the street from a small park in the award-winning community of IOn. This spacious, three-story stucco and wood home built by Thomas Meredith is reminiscent of historic downtown Charleston yet has charming touches of the Arts and Crafts period seen in the custom gates and fencing surrounding the home and in the hand-cut woodworking both by the architect, Neal Van Dalen. The interior is warm and inviting with its Italian Travertine and Brazilian Kumaro floors, its abundance of custom wood trim work and the exquisite hand blown Murano glass lighting fixtures throughout. A large family room with ample custom shelving, a Bahama fan and four sets of handsome MahoganyFrench doors which opens on to an enclosed courtyard and a separate guest/in-law/office suite with a focus on extra customized storage and direct outdoor access, as well as an oversized storage closet and the entrance to the garage complete the entry level. On the second and primary living floor is a light-filled Great Room designed with several sets of French doors which open onto a wrap-around veranda and are designed to capture the many breezes on this corner property. A New Orleans-styled fireplace adds a welcoming presence to the room and can be established as a wood-burning or a gas fireplace. Down the grand hall is a marvelous kitchen with granite counters and stunning Ann Sacks glass-tiled backsplash, a wine refrigerator, two wall ovens including one Micro/Convection oven, a durable IPE wood island bar top, stainless appliances and Bespoke cabinetry. Discriminating buyers will appreciate the 3M coated windows in the home which add storm protection and privacy along with protection for artwork and furnishings, ultimately letting the light in while keeping the hot sun out. The coated surround windows in the breakfast room shower the room with natural light enabling one to enjoy the views of immense oaks and large palm trees at any time of the day. Just steps from the kitchen is the formal dining room with built-in corner cabinets and ample room for guests. The master bedroom suite with private veranda overlooks the Rookery and is completed by a bath with luxurious walk-in tile shower, separate water closet, double sinks and hot air whirlpool tub. Three additional bedrooms(one currently used as a sitting room), two full baths and a customized wall of cabinetry grace the third floor. Meticulous consideration to detail and exceptional craftsmanship are the hallmarks of 122 Ionsborough Street. I'On amenities include a boat ramp with access to deep water, club membership to a swim, exercise and tennis facility, walking trails, a Bird Rookery, playing fields, playgrounds and parks. This home is just a short walk from the I'On square and its restaurants, shops,
