JUST REDUCED! BRING AN OFFER! This adorable 145-year-old cottage, known as Pelican Perch, is located in the heart of historic Port Royal, just one block from the Beaufort River and two blocks from Sands Beach. Steeped in history, the home seamlessly blends its original 1880's cottage with thoughtful additions made over the decades, including a large 1920 addition, an upstairs bedroom and bathroom, a beautiful sunroom, and a renovated guest house featuring a huge screened porch.
Pelican Perch is being offered furnished, with some exceptions, making it a truly turnkey opportunity. The seperate ADU is perfect for a possible rental as well as the main house. This home boasts over 2750 sq ft which makes this home one of the largest homes available on the market in historical Port Royal Modern comforts abound, with three separate heat and air systems and two water heaters, while the home's historic charm shines through in every detail. A fully fenced yard boasts lush landscaping, including oakleaf hydrangeas, azaleas, and lilies, creating a serene and picturesque setting.
The beautiful Lowcountry front porch is perfect to relax and take in the wonderful breezes of the water all year long. Entering the front door the traditional central hall floor plan showcases exquisite antique pine floors, soaring eleven-foot ceilings, and intricate details such as antique doors and recently updated chandeliers. Four antique fireplaces, all converted to gas, bring warmth and character to the inviting living spaces. The first floor includes two bedrooms, a full bath (additional en-suite plumbing available in the back bedroom closet), a half bath in the laundry room, a well-equipped kitchen, and a sun-filled enclosed porch overlooking the backyard. Downstairs in the main house a new HVAC system was installed in 2024 and the interior was completely painted as well.
Upstairs, the updated primary suite serves as a peaceful retreat. The suite features a clawfoot tub, a tiled shower, and brand-new wall paneling and 2 new vanities. The oversized walk-in closet provides ample storage, while the bedroom benefits from its own dedicated heating and air system and water heater. The white beadboard-paneled staircase leading to this space exudes classic charm, and new attic fans help maintain comfortable temperatures throughout.
This home features an oversized detached garage that offers ample space and functionality. With built-in workshop areas and additional rafter storage, it's perfect for projects, hobbies, or extra storage needs. While a large oak tree graces the front of the left side of the garage, limiting it to a single bay door, the interior provides the capacity of a two-car garage, ensuring plenty of room for vehicles, tools, and equipment.
Surrounded by majestic live oaks and ideally situated near the river, the beach, a boat landing, local festivals, restaurants and shops, Pelican's Perch offers an unmatched location. Despite its proximity to waterways, the home is not in a flood zone. Sands Beach is 2 blocks away, 3 restaurants literally around the corner and shops only 1 block away.
Owned by a licensed Realtor, the family originally planned a full renovation that would merge the historic layout with modern updates. Plans for this renovation, designed by Allison Ramsey Architects, are available for viewing and purchase. The main home is in need of some new windows and seller is providing a $20,000 credit towards new windows to be installed by new owner with an acceptable offer.
Don't miss the chance to own this extraordinary home and become part of Port Royal's rich history.
