Wertimer + Cline’s landscaping softens the brick-paved courtyard and knits the property into the natural surroundings.
Blending in: Architect Beau Clowney layered wood siding, stucco, and shingle cladding beneath a metal roof to evoke a classic Sullivan’s Island cottage that has evolved over generations. Painted in Benjamin Moore “Simply White,” the home rises above a pool deck lined with St. Barts chaise lounges from Teak & Table, setting a relaxed yet refined tone that designer Allison Elebash carries throughout the interiors.
In the living room, a Verellen sofa and Lawson-Fenning “Carrillo” lounge chairs surround a Bradley USA “Elliott” coffee table on a vintage Oushak rug. A white-oak “Hood” chandelier from Ravenhill Studio nods to the exposed beams overhead, while Rebecca Jack’s Charismata bursts with green and cobalt above the double-sided fireplace. Holland & Sherry “Harwood House” sheer drapery completes the layered look.
These Walls “Sunbird” wallpaper adds graphic texture to the small space and is complemented by Cindy DeAntonio’s artwork.
In the kitchen, white walls and cabinetry highlight a walnut-wrapped island beneath Urban Electric “Harper” pendants. Namib marble flows from countertop to backsplash behind the hand-plastered hood by Jess Kollar, while walnut Moller counter stools from Design Within Reach add a mid-century note.
warm welcome: Off of the entry with its herringbone hardwood floors, shiplap ceilings, and vintage pencil-reed chest from Show Pony, the bar/butler’s pantry (also opposite bottom left) features Farrow & Ball “Inchyra Blue”-painted cabinetry signaling bolder moments to come.
In the dining room, “Rhythm Champagne” wallpaper from Bradley USA provides a counterpoint to the shiplap that runs through the communal spaces. A Doorman Designs “Amelia” double-pedestal walnut table seats up to 12 and is bookended by Lee Industries chairs upholstered in Christopher Farr Cloth “Cactus Flower.”
An 800-bottle, climate-controlled wine room by Wine Cellars of the Carolinas is tucked into a corner of the dining room behind a steel-and-glass surround.
Off the living room, a cozy den wrapped in clear-coated cypress paneling houses a velvet-covered Lee Industries sectional, alongside an iconic Eames lounge chair.
hang time: Beyond the dining room, a screened porch provides additional entertaining space. Here, Crate & Barrel’s “Davenport” dining table is encircled with woven “Dune” chairs from Teak & Table.
An upstairs lounge anchors the three bedrooms, where a Lee Industries sectional sofa and a white-oak-and-marble coffee table create a chill-out space for the couple’s adult children.
Downstairs, the home office features a “Lindsey” desk from Made Goods beneath the linear “Vienna” chandelier by Palecek, while Phillip Jeffries “Soho Hemp” wallpaper lends texture.
In the powder room, Christopher Farr Cloth “Brisa” wallpaper continues the coastal vibe, with a Bungalow 5 “Claire” mirror and a marble vanity balancing the pattern.
Natural Refuge: Phillip Jeffries “Bermuda Hemp” grass cloth wraps the primary bedroom in earthy texture, picking up the warm cypress paneling of the alcove window seat. The Restoration Hardware “Santiago Cane Shelter” bed is dressed in Matouk “Bryant Collection” linens and flanked by Chelsea Textiles side tables.
In the bath, Calcutta Gold marble lines the floor and walls, its soft green-gray veining echoed in the vanity painted in Farrow & Ball “Pigeon.”
made in the shade: On the lower level, sculptural Janus et Cie “Forest” chairs pull up to a Williams Sonoma “Santa Barbara” metal dining table. A “Mercedes” bed swing from Vintage Porch Swings hangs to one side, while exterior lights from Nauset Lantern Shop and Visual Comfort illuminate the space at night.
Flanking the dining area, the outdoor kitchen pairs a St. Barts rectangle bar table with matching chairs from Teak & Table—a clean, salt-air-friendly setup tailored for long Lowcountry afternoons.
Lounge awhile: A row of St. Barts chaise lounges fringes the saltwater pool, along with a small seating area beneath the primary bedroom, where the cypress alcove affords relaxing views for the sun-soaked scene.
