About this property
Historical Beach House 5 BR 4 Bath with Private Pool
"Bea's Nest" was originally owned by acclaimed American poetess Beatrice Witte Ravenel. This home blends the rich history of Isle of Palms and Sullivan's Island with modern touches to provide it's guests with an amazing experience just steps from the beautiful Carolina beaches. This home is the most historic home on Isle of Palms and offers a relaxed beachy vibe. We are excited to share it with you, your family and friends.
Bea's Nest is a four bedroom home with an attached In-Law Suite over the garage. One of the most used spaces in the entire home is the outdoor area which serves as a gathering place for guests. There’s a space for lounging by the pool, eating a family meal outside, and curling up to watch a movie outside by the working fireplace. Inside the home, the living area opens into the large Gourmet Kitchen with dining table and island seating. The kitchen and dining area provide ample room for gathering while preparing meals and entertaining. The In-Law Suite contains a spacious and comfortable living area with a sofa bed, a small kitchen, king size bed in large bedroom and a large bath with glass enclosed shower. The extra living space off the Master Bedroom contains a daybed with trundle. This is the perfect space for children to play or sleep. Up the spiral staircase from the second floor takes you to the widow's walk. The widow's walk is perfect for yoga and ocean viewing. You will find private nooks throughout the house for relaxing. The balcony love seat and front porch swing serve as mini-escapes perfect for morning coffee. This oasis is a short walk to the beach. Rinse off in the outdoor shower after a day at the beach which is only 1500 feet from the beach path. Enjoy cooling off in the pool while still being part of the house activities. This home comes with beach chairs, surround sound music, games, and much more. The downtown Isle of Palms or Front Beach area is a short 2 walking blocks away and offers shopping, entertainment, and restaurants. The Isle of Palms Marina and the Marina Market is located on the northern side of the island and provides activities including boat rentals, water activities and sports, souvenir shopping and grocery items. To make getting around the island easy and fun, contact our preferred golf cart rental companies to have a golf cart delivered to your home for your arrival.
