Seconds to the Sea!

Location, location, location. Literally steps to the sand from this relaxing beach abode! Just roll out of bed and walk through the tree lined tunnel straight to the boardwalk of your own fairly private beach! Bring your dogs and let them roam the huge fenced in backyard lined with live oaks and a fire pit for the family to unite. A quieter part of Folly where the surfers like to shred but still only a short while to the bars of Folly and just 15 minutes from downtown. You will love this place!!

The beachfront home stands prominently against a serene sunset, with soft hues reflecting off the water. The house features multiple levels and balconies, overlooking the sandy shore and expansive marshland, inviting a relaxing atmosphere. Surrounding homes are visible along the coastline.

Stunning Waterfront

Home is perfect for large gatherings. Come see why this beachfront gem has been a favorite on The Edge of America!
