One of the finest homes on Sullivan's Island. Here's an opportunity to own a unique property with a 4150 square foot Main House and a 1200 square foot Guest House. This 1/2 acre lot is the location of the Devereux Gate House, which was built circa 1875 as the entrance to John Henry Devereux's Sullivan's Island Home. Since the Gate House is on the Sullivan's Island Historical Designation List as a cottage home, the property can have two structures under single ownership. THIS MAKES FOR A SPECIAL OPPORTUNITY! The craftsmanship and attention to detail are Top Drawer. The Main House has a terrific floor plan, incorporating extensive woodwork detail throughout with tongue-in-groove ceilings, wide-plank bead board walls and transom windows above doorways. Ceiling heights are 10 feet downstairs and 9 feet upstairs. There is an elevator to all levels. The porches are expansive and are built wide for entertaining and enjoying the Island breezes. The kitchen is outfitted with granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and top-of-the-line appliances. A large walk-in pantry with custom cabinetry is just steps away. The open-style kitchen area flows beautifully into the great room/dining room area with a large fireplace. There is also a large bedroom on the first floor, a breakfast room off the kitchen that opens to the porch area and a large family room/den with a fireplace. Upstairs has a large master suite with a steam shower, two additional bedrooms that share a jack-n-jill bathroom, and another terrific room that is designed for an office/study or media room. The Guest Cottage also features the same high level craftsmanship as the Main House. It boasts its own kitchen, open living area with a window bed, separate washer/dryer and powder room all on the first floor. The second level has a very large suite with a large private bathroom. The cottage also has its own porch area with a wood burning fireplace. The cottage is just steps away from the property's in-ground pool. Buyer to verify square footage of both structures.
