About this home

Welcome to 255 Candlewood Drive, a beautifully updated waterfront home tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in the highly sought-after Myrtle Trace community. From the moment you walk in, this home feels bright, open, and exceptionally well cared for, but what truly sets it apart is the setting. Out back, you’ll find a peaceful and private retreat overlooking the water, with mature surroundings that create a wonderful sense of separation. Whether you’re enjoying your morning coffee, entertaining friends, or simply relaxing at the end of the day, the backyard and water views make this home feel like your own private escape. Inside, the spacious 3-bedroom, 3-bath Charleston floor plan offers approximately 2,326 heated square feet with a thoughtful split-bedroom design that provides plenty of privacy for both owners and guests. The living area flows naturally into a light-filled Carolina room surrounded by windows overlooking the water, creating a comfortable space that brings the outdoors in. The kitchen has been beautifully refreshed with quartz countertops, refaced cabinetry, new soft-close doors and drawers, cabinet rollouts, updated electrical outlets and island lighting, a newer range hood, garbage disposal, and faucet. The adjoining dining and living areas are comfortable and inviting, while updated lighting and luxury vinyl plank flooring give the home a clean and cohesive feel throughout. The primary suite is privately positioned on its own side of the home and features a large walk-in closet, tray ceiling, ensuite bath with a separate walk-in shower and jetted tub, and convenient access toward the backyard. On the opposite side of the home, two additional bedrooms and baths provide an excellent setup for family and guests, including a rear bedroom with its own attached bath. This is also a home where many of the most important improvements go well beyond what you can see. The owners have invested in high end updates and improvements, including a high-efficiency Bosch heat pump, air handler, and new ductwork installed in 2025, an Ecobee thermostat, all-new Window World windows, luxury vinyl plank flooring, a 50-gallon water heater, and a Halo H2 whole-home water filtration system. The kitchen improvements are complemented by a Frigidaire induction range with built-in air fryer and a newer Frigidaire French-door refrigerator. Additional improvements include updated lighting, new kitchen electrical outlets, new pull-down attic stairs, paint, blinds, and numerous other updates throughout the home. Several of the major improvements also include remaining or transferable warranty coverage; buyers should verify applicable warranty terms and transfer requirements. The oversized 22’ x 24’ two-car garage provides additional storage, pull-down attic access, a utility sink, and convenient access to the yard. Myrtle Trace offers a relaxed lifestyle with community amenities including a clubhouse, outdoor pool, and recreation areas. The location is another major advantage, providing convenient access to shopping, restaurants, medical facilities, golf, entertainment, and everyday necessities while still allowing you to come home to a peaceful residential setting. Bright, extensively updated, beautifully maintained, and positioned on a private waterfront setting, 255 Candlewood Drive offers the combination of comfort, privacy, location, and significant recent improvements that can be difficult to find. With so much invested into the home, much of the work has already been done. All that’s left is for the next owner to move in and enjoy it.
