Property Description

Nestled on the peaceful north end of Sea Island, you will find Cottage 471. This property offers a sense of privacy and timeless coastal charm that defines life on Sea Island. Set on approximately .62 acres, this thoughtfully designed residence features over 5,200 square feet of living space with five bedrooms, five full baths and three half baths. From the moment you arrive, you are surrounded by mature live oaks and lush landscaping and a charming footbridge that spans a tranquil Koi pond and fountain that leads to the front entrance. Inside, the home is designed to embrace both light and livability. Generous living spaces flow effortlessly from one room to the next, with soaring ceilings, warm natural finishes, and walls of windows that invite the outdoors in. Tabby floors and classic architectural details reflect the elegance that has long defined Sea Island Cottages. The gourmet kitchen, which is open to the family room has vaulted, beamed ceilings, a large center island and a fireplace. Guest accommodations are thoughtfully arranged to provide privacy and comfort for family and visitors. A separate guest retreat offers its own sitting area and wet bar, while an additional suite above the garage provides a cozy hideaway complete with skylights and kitchenette. Outdoor living is equally special with an oval swimming pool and spa tucked away within the beautifully landscaped grounds.
