Tidal Creek Access1.1 Acre EstateSolar Energy

A brand-new fortified roof has been installed, complete with a transferable warranty that seamlessly includes the professional removal and reinstallation of the fully owned solar panels - offering exceptional value and long-term peace of mind.Appropriately placed on a lush and expansive 1.11-acre parcel, this impeccably updated estate presents a rare opportunity to own a private retreat with direct tidal creek access just minutes from the deep waters of the Ashley River--only a ten-minute paddle away.

Enveloped by mature, decades-old trees and thoughtfully curated landscaping, the property offers an unparalleled sense of tranquility and seclusion rarely found so close to the heart of Charleston.Winding garden paths and hidden sitting areas invite quiet moments of reflection, while generous green spaces and shaded groves set the stage for unforgettable gatherings from intimate evenings under the stars to oyster roasts that will be talked about for years. Anchored by a stunning floating deck, masterfully crafted around three majestic oaks, the outdoor living experience is nothing short of breathtaking.

With sweeping sunset views toward the Ashley River and low-maintenance Trex composite decking, this space is as enduring as it is beautiful. Tucked closer to the home and nestled into the surrounding landscape, a thoughtfully placed hot tub offers the perfect spot to unwind, while a private bonfire area near the water invites cozy evenings under the stars on cool Lowcountry nights. The home itself, a solid and stately brick construction, is ideally perched on the highest point of the property, ensuring peace of mind with no flood insurance requirement.

Every corner has been designed to celebrate its natural surroundings, offering a rare blend of luxury, privacy, and a true connection to the land. This is more than a home it's a sanctuary. Located within the prestigious Kings Grant neighborhood, residents enjoy both privacy and convenience.

Just moments from everyday essentials such as Harris Teeter, Starbucks, and a selection of dining options, the community also offers effortless access to Charleston International Airport and Boeing (15 minutes), Joint Base Charleston (10 minutes), historic Downtown Charleston (25 minutes), and the sandy shores of Folly Beach in under an hour. Kings Grant is a neighborhood steeped in natural beauty, featuring over 72 acres of preserved green space, walking trails, and multipurpose fields. A charming picnic shelter, playground, and a private marina with resident-only boat launch ensure every lifestyle is thoughtfully catered to.

The neighborhood's exclusive amenities continue with a beautifully maintained clubhouse available for private functions, a large Junior Olympic swimming pool, and lighted tennis courts set along the scenic Ashley River all available through an optional membership for homeowners seeking an elevated recreational experience. Step into 506 Fairington Drive, where timeless elegance begins at the stone-lined entry and flows seamlessly into the home's gracious living spaces. The kitchen is truly the heart of this home designed with the entertainer in mind.

Custom cabinetry provides generous storage, while sleek leathered quartzite countertops offer both durability and sophisticated texture, resisting heat, scratches, and stains with ease. A full gas range paired with an additional gas wall oven makes preparing meals for holidays and special occasions both effortless and enjoyable. A deep kitchen sink overlooks the serene rear gardens, while a secondary prep sink is perfectly positioned within the oversized island for maximum function and flow.

An inviting breakfast nook completes the space, offering the perfect spot to enjoy coffee with a view. Just off the kitchen, a cozy sitting room currently serves as a TV lounge but could easily transform into a stylish formal dining room, seamlessly connecting back to the foyer. On the opposite side, a more spacious living room is anchored by a striking floor-to-ceiling brick gas fireplace an ideal centerpiece for both gatherings and quiet evenings at home.

Beyond this space lies the main level primary suite, expansive enough to feel like a private apartment. With ample room for a bedroom, sitting area, office, and even a potential kitchenette setup, the possibilities are endless. The en suite bathroom is tastefully renovated, providing comfort and style in equal measure.

Adjacent is a large laundry room, and just beyond, a light-filled sunroom offers panoramic views of the rear gardens and yard perfect for morning coffee or an afternoon read. Returning to the foyer, a beautifully appointed powder room greets guests at the base of the staircase. Upstairs, a second primary suite awaits, complete with dual vanities, a large walk-in shower, and private access to an owners' deck overlooking the property a peaceful haven for sunrise coffee or sunset wine.

Three additional guest bedrooms complete the upper floor, one of which has been thoughtfully converted with custom built-ins ideal for a home office, craft room, or study. A full guest bathroom with tasteful tilework, dual vanities, and a tub/shower combo serves these rooms with ease. Storage throughout the home is both generous and well-placed, with multiple linen and storage closets on each level.

The attached two-car garage offers extensive built-in storage, ensuring there's space for vehicles, gear, and everything in between. Additional features such as a tankless water heater and solar energy system elevate both efficiency and sustainability providing long-term savings and peace of mind while reducing your environmental footprint. This property is a rare and extraordinary offering an elegant and enduring brick estate nestled within the natural beauty of the Lowcountry, blending timeless style with modern function and an outdoor setting that is truly second to none.

Whether you're seeking a private family compound, a peaceful waterfront retreat, or an entertainer's dream, 506 Fairington is ready to welcome you home.
