TWO COTTAGES, ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES – ON SAINT SIMONS ISLAND! Welcome to the Cherokee Big House – a dreamy historic beach cottage + a fully functioning guest house that’s already a hit on vacation rental sites and a proven money-maker. Whether you're looking for your own coastal getaway, a rental investment, or both – this one's a no-brainer. Originally built in 1943, the main house oozes character and craftsmanship – think heart pine from floor to ceiling (yes, even the roof joists), gleaming oak hardwoods, and a cozy coastal vibe that wraps around you like a sea breeze. The 3 bed, 2 bath charmer has been renovated with an open floor plan, a stylish new kitchen with stainless steel appliances, modern bathrooms, and a newer metal roof + HVAC to keep things cool and carefree. Picture this: You're sipping a cocktail by your custom outdoor fireplace, surrounded by lush fruit trees, with the sounds of the island in the background. Want oysters? Toss them on the grill. Craving peace? Rock your worries away on the covered front porch. There’s even a circular driveway, 2-car carport, and room to grow (hello, new pool!). Out back, your guest cottage – affectionately known as the Cherokee House – is turn-key ready for rental income. Built in 2005 with its own private entrance, this 2 bed, 1 bath escape has a kitchenette and plenty of serenity for vacationers or long-term guests. Here’s the kicker – this gem sits in an X flood zone, and is flanked by a wooded buffer zone, and you're just a bike ride from the beach, shops, and dining. Plus, you're buying into a transitional neighborhood where renovations are happening all around. Live in one, rent the other – or rent both and ride the appreciation wave. The opportunities here? Limitless. Call today and stake your claim in one of Saint Simons' hottest up-and-coming areas. Own a slice of history and a smart investment all in one.
