Privacy and Seclusion - Marsh View 150 Yards from Front Beach

The PALMETTO PEARL is not just another Beach House. It's an exceptional vacation experience. Privacy just 150 yards from the Ocean is hard to find in any Beach Community. That's only one of the many features The Palmetto Pearl has to offer. This absolutely unique original Folly Beach Property has been in our family for over 40 years and was offered as a Vacation Rental in 2012 after undergoing a complete renovation. Since that time we have continued to upgrade the house on an annual basis. During the pandemic lockdown we took the opportunity to completely refurnish the great room and the screen porch. The back deck was completely renovated with a new composite deck. A new driveway with designated parking was also added. The Palmetto Pearl is set back from the roadway on a high lot surrounded by a small forest of Palmetto (Palm) Trees and Grande Oaks. The back deck offers fabulous sunset's with private views of the estuaries and salt marshes of the Folly River. With easy access to the Beach, the Palmetto Pearl is additionally less than a 1/4 mile from the "Washout" reportedly some of the best surfing on the east coast, and the venue for many sanctioned surfing competitions throughout the year. The Palmetto Pearl is in close proximity to all Folly River Recreational Activities such as para-sailing or kayaking and canoeing expeditions. As well, public tennis courts are within 5 blocks of the house, only a short bike ride away or even shorter drive where parking is available. All of this and the comforts and privacy of a family home. Nestled among the Palmettos you can enjoy the Morning Sunrise or Afternoon Ocean Breezes on the screened porch that runs along the entire front of the house without baking in the heat of Charleston's summer sun or catch some afternoon rays or evening cocktails in complete privacy of the back sundeck which boasts a gas grill, generous seating and plenty of space for entertaining or just lounging about. Bicycle and golf cart rentals are also available on the island.


Keywords: Newly Renovated and Updated. This Authentic Folly Beach House has been in the family for over 40 years. Nestled in a forrest of Palms with private views of the Folly River's marshes and estuaries this home sits only 150 yards from the Beach Front. Convenience and Privacy make this a truly unique resort property.

The little cottage is wonderful. Very quiet on the back porch. Super quick walk to the beach. We enjoyed our stay very much. The furniture is very unique and sparked interest in all of us ( the little game table and coffee table) Very cute little place to enjoy peace and quiet and close enough to enjoy the square of Folly.
