    What's special

    Private pool and spaSweeping marsh viewsNine bathsLush mature landscapingEight spacious bedrooms
    Cottage 462 is a classic (Colonial-style) Sea Island cottage that offers sweeping marsh views and unforgettable sunsets from nearly every room. Totally renovated in 2021, it is 6,547 square feet across two stories; the floor plan is built for gathering — eight spacious bedrooms and nine baths, an open kitchen overlooking the marsh, and multiple sitting areas that flow together, including one with a wet bar that opens straight onto the back deck and pool. Seven of the eight bedrooms enjoy marsh views with private walkout access to the upper deck, so sunrise coffee and evening sunsets are never far from bed. Outside, a private pool and spa sit amid lush, mature landscaping, and a fire pit surrounded by Adirondack chairs enjoys fabulous marsh and sunset views. It is a large .71-acre lot that feels wonderfully secluded, yet is just steps from Sea Island's wide beaches, jogging paths, trails, and famed Cloister and Beach Club amenities. The expansive kitchen and dining area anchor the main living space, and covered porches wrap the home on both levels — ideal for entertaining large families and multiple guests in total comfort and privacy.
