This cottage style beach home underwent extensive renovation in 2004 and again in 2008.
The home is elevated with the main (upper) floor including a kitchen/living/dining great room area opening onto a large, screen front "sleeping porch" with Bermuda shutters and a rear grilling deck, three bedrooms and two full baths. The downstairs features a large recreational room with a wet bar, foosball table, sectional sofa (with sleeper), big screen television, Day bed with trundle, extra refrigerator and laundry room with 1/2 bath.
Hardwood and ceramic flooring flow through all of the home with the exception of a carpeted stairwell. The two full baths have been very recently remodeled to include large walk-in tiled showers. The rear deck is perfect for gas grilling and watching the deer that frequently graze in the yard.
The home sits two short blocks and in easy walking distance to Marina Village which includes the Bonito Boathouse restaurant, the Fripp Island Marina, convenience store, gas, bicycle, golf cart and other rentals.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2005
Our extended family has lived in the Beaufort area since 1978 when we relocated from Louisiana. Our family real estate business as well as our individual homes are located on Lady's Island, just over the bridge from historic, downtown Beaufort and about a 1/2 hour drive from Fripp Island.
Why the Owner Chose Private Homes
About ten years ago, our family purchased 1/13th share of an oceanfront home on Fripp Island. Having access to this property four weeks a year simply whet our appetite to spend more time there, especially since our primary homes are so close by. Even though we live on a South Carolina sea island just 22 miles away from the gates of Fripp, coming to this lush, tropical, slow moving resort island calms our spirits and makes us feel like we are truly on vacation from the cares of the real world. Fripp has the right combination of a relaxed, low key environment; a serene natural preserve; and just enough restaurants, amenities and shops to provide entertainment. This home met the space needs of our family and was located in the area of the island that we desired.
The Unique Benefits of this Home
We chose the Marina vicinity of the island because of its quick and easy access to the Ocean Creek club/golf course/pool complex, the Beach Club, and the beach. It is also a short two block walk to Marina Village with boat storage/dock/ramp, convenience store, bicycle and other rentals, and the Bonito Boathouse casual restaurant. Because the island is so small, most residents and visitors travel by foot, bicycle or golf cart. Bike paths connect the majority of the island.
