Set at the edge of a charming pocket park in the popular River Road neighborhood, 2 Thunderstorm lane is a beautiful two-bedroom, two-bathroom 1,603-square-foot cottage built and conceived by Brightwater Homes. A classic white picket gate ushers you in through low-lying landscaping, lining your approach to the wide screened front porch. Here you can bask in year-round comfort, greeting neighbors as they pass on the narrow lane flanking the park.

Inside, the great room greets you with an artful sense of grandeur that belies the cottage exterior, with soaring vaulted ceilings stretching above an open living space. To one end, a delicate contrast of white and eggshell sets a contemporary tone to a living room oriented around a cozy gas fireplace. At the other, the grand kitchen dazzles with the interplay of stainless steel appliances and rich marbled granite counters.

Set around a wide center island with bar seating, this space offers a pass through to the charming side porch. Behind a wide farmhouse door, a full laundry room enjoys enough space for a set of bunk beds, providing plenty of room for family visits.

A corridor stretching away from the main living space takes you to an owner’s entrance with built-in bench set before a covered walkway to the two-car garage. Set off this corridor you’ll find both the spacious guest room and opulent primary suite. Set behind wide French doors, the guest suite indulges with plentiful natural light, spacious closets and private access to a full bath with tub and shower.

The primary suite offers a stately sense of comfort and elegance, with a cavernous walk-in closet just beyond the en suite bath. Informed by a brilliant sense of modern design, the bathroom enjoys a wide dual-basin vanity as well as a walk-in shower space incorporating multiple showerheads and a garden tub.

An extension of Wilson Village, the River Road neighborhood continues the established character of Wilson Village while also being adjacent to the 120-acre River Road Preserve. More classic, period details give the architecture a slightly more formal feel in this neighborhood. Known as the Garden District of Palmetto Bluff, the River Road neighborhood was thoughtfully designed to incorporate community green spaces, staying true to the Lowcountry landscape and integrating the natural environment into the neighborhood.
