The unique, octagonal home at 1820 I'on Avenue was originally built in 1870, with five rooms and four triangular porches. This charming cottage was intended as a clubhouse for Dr. J.B. Patrick's large family, and became known as the ""Poker Cottage"" or ""Card House"".This classic Sullivan's Island historic home is located at one of the most desirable and accessible stations, just one short block from the beach, and across from the iconic Sullivan's Island lighthouse. This amazing home has been meticulously renovated with high-end finishes, extraordinary attention to detail, and excellent craftsmanship. The original antique heart pine floors, bead-board and shiplap walls, vaulted ceilings, custom lighting, upgraded plumbing and electrical, marble counters in kitchen and baths, ......new roof, all new windows, and high end appliances make this luxurious beach cottage truly livable and comfortable. The large great room with vaulted ceiling, wood-burning fireplace, and many windows is a wonderful place to entertain or relax. 3 guest bedrooms and hall baths are complemented by a large master bedroom, with large en-suite bath with soaking tub and marble shower and sink. The literal centerpiece of the home is the sensational original octagonal room, with soaring 20' ceilings, handcrafted beams, wood-burning fireplace, wonderful natural light, and views of the lighthouse. An open kitchen with bar seating and casual dining area opens onto a side porch and separate screened porch. Turn-key and move-in ready, this home sits on a generous street-to-street half acre lot which has plenty of room to add additional square footage or rooms, as well as room to add a pool. This home is truly a unique and special property, unlike any other available on the island.
