Welcome to 16 Turtle Bay, a premium end-unit townhome offering the absolute best dual-side panoramic views of the Folly River. This bright, newly updated coastal oasis serves as your private front-row seat to Folly’s famous sunsets. You will find yourself steps from the community pool and a private fishing dock, while the ocean waves and the bustling energy of downtown Center Street are both an easy five-minute stroll away.

The heart of this sun-drenched home is an expansive, open-concept main level designed for effortless gathering. Large windows frame stunning water views from every angle of the kitchen, dining, and living areas, while a screened-in porch offers the perfect spot to watch passing boats and wildlife. When it is time to rest, three spacious bedroom suites, each with its own bathroom, ensure ultimate comfort. The primary master suite is a true sanctuary, boasting a king bed, spa-like bath, and a private waterfront balcony.

Convenience is built into every detail, starting with a large garage and carport that easily fit two vehicles plus a golf cart. Situated in a laid-back, golf-cart-friendly island community, you are minutes from excellent seafood, nightlife, and miles of sandy beach. Plus, the world-class dining and historic charm of downtown Charleston are just a quick twenty-minute drive away
