At The Layne House, nearly every vantage offers broad vistas of the ocean while being only 5 mins. from the oceanside Wild Dunes Links and 20 mins. from the excitement downtown Charleston has to offer. Wake up to jaw-dropping, expansive ocean vistas from this 4 BR/4.5 BA home with bright, coastal interiors and sun drenched rooms. While you're sure to appreciate morning walks on the beach, and afternoons spent with a good book and toes in the sand, The Layne House also has a private pool and expansive decks that overlook the dunes, ensuring that everybody has a spot to relax and soak in the sun.

From this oceanfront property, six miles of white, sandy beaches beckon just steps outside the The Layne House, which is located on one of the biggest and most private waterfront tons on Isle of Palms. Majestic palmetto trees tower over lush beach vegetation, all swaying to and fro in the breeze.

The cavernous and private primary suite offers striking ocean vistas framed in floor to ceiling windows. With a separate sitting area, doors that step out to the oceanside deck, and a spa-like bath with extravagant soaking tub and walk-in shower, this is sure to feel like your own private getaway. Three additional bedrooms each have ensuite bathrooms.

You'll savor days spent soaking up the sun, surf, and relaxing tranquility, but The Layne House also offers an idyllic island town experience that the Isle of Palm locals adore. Perfectly positioned, this home provides painless access to the best of the lowcountry. Explore the historic appeal of Charleston, the laid-back vibe of Sullivan's Island, and the vibrant shopping and dining of Mount Pleasant—all just a short drive away.

Isle of Palms features some of the most fashionable eateries and cafes east of the Cooper River, and the island offers a wide variety of delicious seafood and other local specialties, including Coda del Pesce, Coconut Joes Beach Grille, Acme Lowcountry Kitchen and the locally appreciated Sea Biscuit Cafe, that serves up only breakfast, but is well worth the wait. You'll find fresh dining options dotted throughout the island, including Long Island Cafe which is located right beside Harris Teeter, The Boathouse, located on the water overlooking the Intracoastal Waterway and Islander 71. Located on the point where Morgan Creek meets the Intracoastal Waterway, Islander 71 overlooks the water and has spectacular vistas. When the sun sets and the nighttime is heating up, head to the ever trendy The Windjammer beachfront bar.
