A Historic Soul, Reimagined.Originally constructed in 1893 and reborn in 2015 through an acclaimed collaboration between architect Heather Wilson, design firm Basic Projects by Kate Towill, and builder Sammy Rhodes -- 2508 Myrtle Avenue is a masterwork of coastal refinement on one of the most coveted addresses on Sullivans. Situated on a lush, private half-acre maritime forest lot on the island's quietest, most deeply residential streets, this elevated 3,692 sq ft home is one of the island's most distinctive offerings.A "beautiful white blank canvas" transformed into a layered sanctuary -- rich textures, custom-sourced fabrics, vintage finds from Morocco to Denmark, and lighting by Urban Electric create a space sophisticated enough for the most discerning collector yet entirely livable for a modern family. Wide heart-pine floors and original wainscoting ground the design in authentic character. Five bedrooms plus bunks, 4½ baths, and a private in-ground pool are wrapped in over 1,300 sq ft of porches and decks, including a 34x10 front porch and 36x12 rear screened porch. The floor plan is as thoughtful as it is functional. Elevated over expansive garage bays and generous storage -- room for boats, golf carts, and everything island life demands -- the primary suite occupies its own private wing, with a site study revealing meaningful opportunity to expand it further. A charming guest suite with custom built-in bunks anchors the main level, with dedicated kids' rooms above. The home's social center is a window-wrapped dining area that draws the outdoors in, while a covered entertaining area below the screened porch flows directly to the pool -- the hallmark of great coastal architecture. Sullivan's Island is less a place than a way of life. Sullivans Fish Camp, Obstinate Daughter, and Home Team BBQ are a short bike ride away, and the town gathers for holiday parades, Fourth of July beach celebrations, and the kind of front-porch neighborliness that feels lifted from another era. Three and a half miles of Atlantic beachfront line the southern edge while Cove Inlet and the Intracoastal Waterway define the north -- two entirely different water experiences from one address. The town boat ramp opens to marsh creeks and tidal estuaries, and late afternoons here belong to the cordgrass, the dolphins, and sunsets over the Ravenel Bridge that rank among the finest on the East Coast. Homes of this pedigree -- architect, designer, builder -- rarely become available on Sullivan's Island. This is not simply a house. It is a legacy property.
