About this property
Private Home Located Two Blocks from Restaurants/Shops & 1 Street From Beach!
License#: LIC000173(STR24-A0296)
Please note: This property is in a quiet residential community and Folly Beach has a strict noise ordinance violation rule of 1 strike. Simply respect your neighbors, keep the noise down, and NO parties:) Maximum capacity at all times is 8 guests.
Originally built by Joe back when time moved a little slower, summer days seemed to melt into one another and family and friends gathered on porches to enjoy light conversation and cocktails while benefiting from the evening breeze. This lovely, updated 1950's private home helps you step back into a simpler time, curling up with a good book, living shoeless and never needing to get into your car unless you absolutely must leave the Island.
As you enter the home you are greeted with original heart pine floors, vaulted ceilings with exposed beams and an open and airy floor plan with two seating areas and dining room. Equipped with a fully stocked kitchen for all your dining/food preparation needs. The kitchen opens up directly to the front wrap around porch and also to a lovely seating area inside. Perfect layout for friends and family to gather while the chef prepares the evening meal, while not being excluded from the conversations and happenings of the day. Off of the kitchen you will find the main living room along with a Roku Flat Screen TV for all your viewing needs. This home has Direct TV and WIFI. Dining Room is directly off and open to the main living room. Dining Table is set for six people and there's additional seating for three at the bartop in the adjacent kitchen area.
The Master Suite is located on one side of the home, off to itself. This room was just updated in early 2020 with a new King mattress. A closet, chest of drawers and two luggage racks complete the space. All beds are prepared with 100% cotton linens. The spacious bathroom on this side of the home has a spacious walk-in shower and double pedestal sinks. The queen bedroom is furnished with a luggage rack and has plenty of hooks to hang personal items. The bathroom in this bedroom was completely remodeled in late 2019. The bathroom has a large walk-in shower and plenty of cabinet space for clothing and bath items. The twin bedroom has 3 twin beds with an additional twin bed in a smaller nook. This room can sleep 4 and has it's own bathroom with a walk-in shower.
Front, covered wrap around porch has a comfortable seating area with a private natural screen. The front yard is fully fenced. Large, open back yard with outdoor gas grill and private outdoor shower with running hot/cold water. Washer/Dryer are located in the "crab shack" which is not attached to the house but directly off the porch in it's own separate building.
This home is ground level and perfect for those who might have difficulty navigating stairs. The maximum capacity for this house is 8 people at any time. This is not an event home. There's plenty of off street parking in the back yard. No Smoking Inside. No pets.

About the host
Hosted by Michael Ray
This home is owned by the original family who built it in the 1950's. Since that time children have grown, had children of their own who now they too have added to the family! It's been a family destination for decades. Withstood the wrath of Hurricane Hugo. Been a sanctuary in good times and bad. What a blessing to be able to share this special destination with others.
Why they chose this property
Homes have come and gone on Folly but this one has withstood the test of time. It is loved, well maintained, clean, inviting and comfortable with the charm and grace that you expect from a classic southern home. It is the perfect destination for a group of friends or family. Once you park your car you may never need to get back in it. You can easily walk to the beach, pier, shops, restaurants and local grocery "Berts". While it's in such a convenient location it is also private with a large, shaded yard out back and private front yard. With two seating areas you get to have space for those who might want to watch a game on the TV while others enjoy conversation in the adjacent sitting room or directly off kitchen on the covered porch.
What makes this property unique
Three bedrooms and three full bathrooms is always a plus! Plenty of off street parking. Easily walk to all shops, restaurants, beach.
