Classic Lowcountry living on a rare 0.67-acre homesite—no HOA, exceptional privacy, and even glimpses of sunset over the water through neighboring properties. Ideally located less than 1.5 miles to downtown Beaufort, enjoy a scenic walk or golf cart ride through Whitehall’s city-owned park and dock walkway to the historic Woods Bridge.
This home was thoughtfully designed by Allison Ramsey Architects and expertly built by Mussell-Built Custom Homes. Featuring 4 bedrooms, each with a private ensuite bath, an open-concept layout, and a spacious dining room. The gourmet kitchen showcases custom cabinetry, a Thermador appliance package, and high-end finishes, flowing seamlessly into a large great room with gas fireplace. Elegant details are carried throughout, including hardwood flooring, soaring 10’ ceilings, and custom tiled showers.
The oversized screened-in porch with its own gas fireplace creates the perfect year-round outdoor living space. Additional highlights include a butler’s pantry, large upstairs flex room, abundant walk-in attic storage, and a two-car garage.
MEET THE BUILDER
DEAN MUSSELL, FOUNDER OF MUSSELL-BUILT CUSTOM HOMES
Mussell-Built Custom Homes was born from a commitment to exceptional craftsmanship in an industry too often defined by compromise. After years of owning a structural engineering firm and collaborating closely with home builders, founder Dean Mussell grew increasingly frustrated by the lack of control over final outcomes. Time and again, he witnessed homeowners—making one of the largest investments of their lives—left with construction that fell short of the standard they deserved. As the local construction boom accelerated, this concern only deepened, with many well-intentioned companies stretched too thin to deliver true quality.
“At Mussell-Built, we pride ourselves on crafting high-quality, custom homes tailored to our clients’ unique needs and desires. Our hands-on approach ensures every detail meets our rigorous standards, allowing you to feel confident in your dream home. Our goal is simple. We want to build good homes for good people, regardless of budget, while maintaining a commitment to excellence in all that we do.”
Dean Mussell Founder of Mussell-Built Custom Homes
Motivated by an unwavering dedication to excellence and a genuine desire to elevate the homebuilding experience, Dean shifted his focus exclusively to custom home construction. With a rare combination of structural engineering expertise and hands-on residential building experience, he brings both precision and practicality to every project. This foundation is further strengthened by a deeply rooted culture of quality passed down from his father—a third-generation builder, respected homebuilding authority, and author of a #2 Amazon bestseller in carpentry.
