Exceptional space, flexibility and value define this 2,835-square-foot home in Alston Park within the Town of Bluffton.

The open main living area allows the kitchen, dining and family spaces to connect comfortably, making the home well suited for both daily life and entertaining. Wooded and lagoon views provide a peaceful backdrop, while the rear yard offers the next owner an opportunity to design a personalized outdoor living space.
