Welcome to 1-2nd Terrace, a charming oceanfront Tybee cottage that blends vintage island character with modern comfort. Located directly on the beach in Tybee Island's desirable Mid-Island area, this beautifully preserved four-bedroom retreat offers panoramic ocean views, direct beach access, spacious outdoor living areas, and the timeless appeal of one of Tybee's classic beachfront homes.
Perfectly positioned along the shoreline, 1-2nd Terrace places guests just steps from the sand while remaining within walking distance of local restaurants, shops, and island attractions. Whether you're spending your mornings watching the sunrise over the Atlantic, enjoying afternoons on the beach, or unwinding beneath the stars as ships pass through the nearby Savannah shipping channel, this exceptional location offers a true Tybee Island experience.
Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated, the home preserves much of its historic charm while offering the conveniences today's travelers expect. The main living level features comfortable gathering spaces designed for relaxing after a day in the sun. The inviting living room offers ample seating and direct access to a covered beachfront porch, while the fully equipped kitchen features updated appliances, butcher block countertops, generous prep space, and dining areas that make family meals and vacation gatherings effortless. A convenient half bathroom and laundry room are also located on this level.
Designed to comfortably accommodate up to eight guests, the home features four bedrooms and three full bathrooms spread across two levels. On the main floor, guests will find a private bedroom furnished with a queen bed and an attached ensuite bathroom featuring a walk-in shower. This level is wheelchair accessible and ADA-compliant, providing comfortable accommodations for guests who prefer to avoid stairs or require enhanced accessibility features during their stay.
Upstairs, painted pine floors and vintage details continue the home's classic coastal character. The spacious primary suite features a king bed, reading nook, workspace, private ocean-view balcony access, and an attached ensuite bathroom with a tub and shower combination. Two additional guest bedrooms include one room with a queen bed and another with two twin beds. These bedrooms share convenient access to a hallway bathroom with a tub and shower combination, creating flexible accommodations for families, couples, and groups of friends.
One of the home's most memorable features is the expansive upper-level balcony overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. This elevated outdoor retreat provides unobstructed views of the beach, sunrise skies, and the ships anchored offshore along Tybee Roads. Whether you're enjoying coffee in the morning, sunbathing during the day, or relaxing beneath the evening stars, the balcony offers a front-row seat to Tybee Island's natural beauty.
1-2nd Terrace offers the perfect combination of beachfront location, historic charm, and modern convenience.
