Some homes are designed around square footage. This one was designed around how you want to live. At 440 Eagle Crest Drive, mornings can begin with coffee overlooking the lagoon and 7th fairway, afternoons can be spent relaxing in the 750-gallon in-ground spa, and evenings can flow effortlessly from the great room to the screened porch and outdoor kitchen. Custom built by W.H. Gross for its original owners, this 3,874 sq. ft. Sanctuary Cove home offers 4 bedrooms, a large bonus room and 4 full baths-but it's the way the spaces were thoughtfully designed that truly sets it apart. At the heart of the home, the light-filled great room makes a statement with its soaring cathedral ceiling and dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. Perhaps its most impressive feature is the three-panel sliding glass door that completely disappears into an exterior pocket. Open it up, and the great room and screened porch become one expansive living and entertaining space, with the lagoon and 7th fairway providing the backdrop. Step outside and you'll understand why this space was meant to be enjoyed. Relax in the 750-gallon in-ground spa with water feature, fire up the new Blaze grill in the outdoor kitchen, watch the golfers go by, or settle in with friends for an evening overlooking the water. With the glass doors tucked completely away, entertaining can flow naturally from the kitchen and great room all the way outdoors. When you want a little separation, a separate stairway leads to a spacious bonus room with its own full bath, creating a private and versatile area away from the main living spaces. Use it as a guest retreat, media or game room, home office, hobby space-or a combination that fits the way you live. Inside, thoughtful custom details continue with plantation shutters, Hunter Douglas window and door shades, a kitchen wet bar with wine refrigerator, and a GE Cafe refrigerator installed in 2024. Two Noritz tankless water heaters, natural gas and a whole-house generator add comfort, convenience and peace of mind. And the lifestyle extends well beyond your own backyard. Sanctuary Cove is a golf and waterfront community along the Little Satilla River where a round of golf, an afternoon at the community pool or time near the water can all be part of everyday life. The community features a Fred Couples Signature golf course along with a clubhouse, swimming pool, fitness center, tennis courts and community dock. Its Waverly location offers the relaxed feel of Coastal Georgia while keeping you within easy reach of Brunswick, St. Simons Island, Jekyll Island and Kingsland. Carefully maintained by the same owners since its completion in August 2014, 440 Eagle Crest Drive offers something special: a custom home built for gathering, private spaces designed for flexibility, an outdoor retreat made for enjoying, and a community centered around golf, water and the Coastal Georgia lifestyle
