5 BR/4BA, Heated Private Pool, Steps to the Ocean

Step back in time to a charming home built in 1954 by engineer Nicholas G. Roosevelt, a cousin of FDR. Originally located on the adjacent lot, this house was later moved and elevated to incorporate a garage underneath. After Nicholas and his wife Emily passed, they bequeathed the property to their niece, Emily Whaley, a renowned gardener and writer from Charleston. You can still visit her famous garden on Church Street in downtown Charleston. The hardwood floors in the home are original to its construction.

Situated across from beach access with an ocean view, this home features a beautiful screened porch, perfect for enjoying your morning coffee while listening to the waves. The residence includes 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, featuring the Sand Crab Suite—a nod to the original name of the property—complete with a small kitchenette, a bedroom, and a full bathroom.

The home has recently been updated with renovated bathrooms, new appliances, and fresh paint both inside and out. A heated saltwater pool at the back of the home leads directly to the beach entrance across the street. This tranquil area of Isle of Palms is quiet and family-oriented, just a short hop to Sullivan’s Island. The Boat House, within walking distance, is an excellent spot for a drink and watching the sunset.

Amenities include standard kitchen appliances (fridge, freezer with icemaker, oven/stove, dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker, toaster, blender, wine cooler, etc.), an additional fridge in the garage, and a full-size washer/dryer set.

Please note: No smoking, no pets, and no parties or large gatherings are allowed. All guests must sign a rental contract before staying in the home. There are Ring cameras at the front of the house for added security.
