Coastal Luxury Retreat With Ocean Views And Pool

Located on a prime Folly Beach corner lot just steps from the beach, 720 West Ashley Avenue 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 five bedrooms, four and a half bathrooms residence spans three thousand five hundred thirty-two 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 ten-foot ceilings, eight-foot solid core doors, and wide-plank (seven point five inches) 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 twelve by twenty feet with a six by six feet 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 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.
