Key Facts
Description
Located on a prime Folly Beach corner lot just steps from the beach, 720 W Ashley Ave is a newly completed coastal retreat that blends timeless Lowcountry architecture with elevated, luxury design. Located directly across from beach access, this second-row home offers ocean views and an exceptional setting on Folly Beach.Designed by renowned architect Carl McCants with a classic Sullivan's Island cottage influence, this 5 bedroom, 4 and a half bath residence spans 3,532 square feet and reflects a level of craftsmanship and detail rarely seen. Every element of the home was carefully curated, resulting in a refined yet relaxed coastal aesthetic.From the moment you arrive, the architectural presence stands out--oyster tabby shell pillars and chimney with a bishop's arch cap,a standing seam metal roof, TruExterior shiplap siding, and signature gable brackets with exposed rafter tails all combine to create a striking exterior. Inside, the home is equally impressive. Soaring 10-foot ceilings, 8-foot solid core doors, and wide-plank (7.5") hardwood floors run throughout. Extensive custom trim and millwork elevate every space, including a white oak dining room ceiling and beautifully finished bedrooms. The sunroom with V-groove detailing provides a light-filled retreat, while the custom bunk room with built-in beds and a daybed adds both character and versatility. The kitchen is designed for both function and style, featuring top-of-the-line Thermador appliances, Pritchard custom cabinetry, and a dedicated scullery for additional prep and storage. Andersen windows and doors, along with a solid mahogany entry door, enhance both the beauty and performance of the home. Outdoor living is a true highlight, with expansive porches finished in garapa wood decking--ideal for taking in the ocean views and coastal breezes. The private pool, measuring 12x20 with a 6x6 wading extension, creates a resort-style setting perfect for entertaining or relaxing. Additional features include an elevator, stainless steel cable railings, integrated security with cameras, and a buffered backdrop behind the property for added privacy. A rare opportunity to own a thoughtfully designed, newly constructed luxury home in one of Folly Beach's most desirable locations.
