Quick facts

About this home

Exceptional Daniel Island home offering 3,646 square feet, 6 bedrooms and 41/2 baths between the main residence and separate pool house. A fully climate-controlled garage, which can be used as a game room, adds approximately 497 square feet that are not included in the total square footage. Located in the highly desirable Smythe Park neighborhood, the home is just a two-minute stroll from Smythe Lake and its 22-acre park, with walking trails, a kayak dock, picnic areas, playground and popular community events.The property sits on an unusually large and secluded homesite with a resort-like backyard. The home has undergone an extensive renovation inside and out. Highlights include the addition of the two-bedroom pool house and expanded garage, the pool and spa, and an outdoor fireplace.Inside, the floors have been refinished, the fireplace wall and the staircase and balusters redone, a library nook added, the primary bath refreshed and the powder room updated. The main residence features hardwood floors, comfortable living and dining spaces, and thoughtful architectural details throughout. The kitchen opens to a sunny breakfast area and inviting living room, while the formal dining room provides a gracious setting for entertaining. The main-level primary suite includes a roomy bedroom, walk-in closet and spacious bath. Upstairs are three additional bedrooms, a large bonus room and a handsome library with floor-to-ceiling built-ins and a wood-clad ceiling. One bedroom has its own bath, while the other two share a true Jack-and-Jill layout, with a separate sink and toilet for each bedroom and only the tub and shower area shared. The backyard is one of the home's standout features. More private than most Daniel Island yards, it offers expansive lawn, mature landscaping and plenty of room for outdoor living. The pool and spa are notably large for the area, with broad stone decking for lounging and entertaining. An outdoor fireplace and TV area creates another inviting gathering space. The pool house suite, with two bedrooms and a full bath, offers excellent flexibility for guests, extended family or additional living space. Adjoining the pool house, the garage has been completely climate controlled and can be used as a game room, with hookups for a refrigerator, dishwasher and washer/dryer. At approximately 497 square feet, it also works well as a media room, home gym or hobby space. The location is just as appealing. In addition to Smythe Park, the home is close to Daniel Island School, the Daniel Island Library, Freedom Park, the DISA soccer complex and the Crow's Nest Pool. Freedom Park offers tennis courts, baseball and multipurpose fields, walking paths, a playground and open green space, placing many of Daniel Island's best recreational amenities within easy reach. With its combination of indoor and outdoor living, guest accommodations and proximity to some of Daniel Island's favorite parks and amenities, 1261 Smythe Street is a special opportunity in Smythe Park.
