Property Description

Welcome to "The Sanctuary"—an extraordinary oceanfront estate where luxury living meets exceptional investment potential. This fully furnished, turnkey 8-bedroom, 8.5-bath coastal retreat offers four levels of thoughtfully designed living, breathtaking Atlantic Ocean views, and a proven history of strong vacation rental demand with back-to-back summer bookings. Whether you're searching for an unforgettable family beach home, a luxury second residence, or a premier income-producing property, "The Sanctuary" delivers an unmatched combination of lifestyle, location, and long-term value. From the moment you arrive, a grand exterior staircase leads to the impressive main entrance where a stunning foyer reveals a direct sightline straight through the home to the Atlantic Ocean. Every detail was thoughtfully designed to maximize views, comfort, and entertaining. A private 4-stop elevator provides easy access to every level, while porcelain tile flooring flows throughout the entire home for a clean, elegant coastal feel. The main living level is built for gathering, featuring expansive oceanfront living and dining spaces and access to a large covered balcony with breathtaking ocean views. The chef’s kitchen is truly next-level with granite countertops, luxury stainless steel appliances, Viking 6-burner gas range, additional wall oven, dual dishwashers, walk-in pantry, abundant cabinetry, and an entertainer’s wet bar complete with sink, icemaker, and beverage chiller. Two spacious ensuite bedrooms plus a powder room, and a large laundry room with sink, cabinetry, front-load washer/dryer, and extra refrigerator are also located on this level. The third floor offers an additional oceanfront living area with pool table, wet bar, beverage chiller, and balcony access. The luxurious oceanfront primary suite features tray ceiling, balcony access, walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bath with dual vanities, garden tub, and oversized walk-in shower. Four additional guest suites with private baths and a second laundry room complete this floor. The top level is an entertainer’s dream with vaulted beam ceilings, game room, wet bar, foosball, shuffleboard, separate marsh-view sitting area, and a private theater room featuring 11 theater chairs, projection screen, and theater equipment. The 8th bedroom and additional ensuite bath are also located here. Outside is your own private oceanfront oasis featuring a pool with spillover spa, outdoor kitchen with gas grill, sink, granite counters, bar seating, private beach walkway over the dunes, outdoor shower, and multiple storage areas for beach gear. Homes of this size, condition, and location rarely become available. Sold fully furnished and completely turnkey, "The Sanctuary" has been exceptionally maintained and is ready for its next owner. Combining luxurious accommodations for large groups, world-class amenities, breathtaking oceanfront views, and a proven record of exceptional vacation rental success, this remarkable property is truly one of the finest oceanfront investment opportunities on the South Carolina coast.
