About this property
Historic Home on Sullivan’s Island • Across from Beach Path
The house offers a relaxed, classic beach house experience in a 1925 home. Just 9 yards from the footpath to the beach on the Atlantic Ocean, it is easy to enjoy the water throughout the day.
This is a pet friendly home with approval.
The upper level private unit sleeps 8 and includes four bedrooms: one king with en suite bathroom, two with double beds, and one with twin beds. There are two indoor bathrooms total, one en suite and one shared by the other three bedrooms (no bathtub).
The home includes a full kitchen, living room, dining room, and a large screened porch.
A rooftop deck offers a peaceful outdoor space with seating. While it once had ocean views, trees and neighboring homes now largely obscure the view, though it remains a great place to relax and enjoy the breeze.
Additional features include central air and heat, a washer and dryer located in a separate laundry room, 4 beach chairs for guest use, and linens and bath towels (no beach towels).
There are two outdoor showers: one under the stairs for rinsing off after the beach, and one on the rooftop deck for cooling off. These are not full indoor style showers.
Guests have exclusive access to the upper level and rooftop deck. The lower level is occupied year round by a quiet family member with a separate entrance.
Sullivan’s Island is located just across the Intracoastal Waterway from Charleston, with wide sandy beaches, historic Fort Moultrie, a lively restaurant area, public tennis courts, and a classic playground with a gazebo.

About the host
Hosted by Rachel Rephan Ginsburg
Our family has deep roots on Sullivan’s Island. This home was built by my grandfather in 1925 and has been part of our family ever since.
We have spent generations here and enjoy sharing it with guests who appreciate a classic, relaxed beach house experience.
Why they chose this property
Sullivan’s Island is a beautiful, historic beach community with a relaxed, coastal feel. We love the easy beach access, walkability, and the mix of classic homes and natural surroundings.
It has become a popular destination, especially in peak season, so restaurants and local spots can get busy. We recommend making reservations in advance to make the most of your stay.
What makes this property unique
The house was built in 1925 and is recognized as a historic resource on Sullivan’s Island.
Its close proximity to the beach, rooftop deck, large screened porch, and pet friendly policy with approval make it a great option for guests looking for a relaxed, classic beach stay.
Unlike many newer homes in the area, this is not a modern build. It is an authentic old island home with charm, character, and a lived in feel. If you are looking for a newly renovated or luxury property, this may not be the right fit.
