This 1940s beach cottage on the south end of St. Simons Island has been thoughtfully renovated and expanded, offering 3 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, a new pool, and a separate guest house, all beneath a canopy of live oaks just steps from the Village. A wide front porch with a porch swing and brick walkway welcomes you home. Inside, the living room features vaulted shiplap ceilings, exposed beams, skylights, and a painted brick fireplace with built-in shelving. The kitchen offers new cabinetry, quartz countertops, a gas range in the island, stainless appliances, and a cozy breakfast nook with built-in seating. Both bedrooms in the main house have their own en-suite baths, and a half bath serves guests. Off the front bedroom, a light-filled bonus room surrounded by windows offers flexible space for a home office, reading room, or workout area. Out back, the fenced yard includes a pool with a tanning ledge, brick paver patio, built-in grill, and landscaped lawn. The back house, with sliding glass door opening to the pool, features a bedroom, full bath, and kitchenette, ideal for guests, family, or a home office. Within walking distance of the Village's shops, restaurants, parks, pier, and beaches, this cottage is well suited as a full-time residence, second home, or investment property.
