Description

The fine, distinctive oceanfront estate at 9 Nicklaus Lane showcases incredible views of the ocean surf from nearly every room, with a prelude of manicured golf green and flowering beds. Immediately adjacent to—and yet privately screened from—the Island’s immaculate beach, the property also features a heated in-deck saltwater pool and spa, outdoor fireplace, summer kitchen, and two pristine, spacious outdoor showers. Outside, the red-cedar-shingle home is anchored by a foundation of Old Savannah brick and topped by copper and cedar-shake roofing. Premium-grade bluestone stretches across the front staircase and porch, rear stair, and pool surround. The spacious rear loggia and patio are floored in brick laid in a herringbone pattern, and a half-height brick wall and brick edging lines the drive. The rear covered terrace and its two adjacent sundecks, floored in ipe wood, overlook not only the breathtaking views but a semicircular lawn bordered by pebbled paths lined with tidy boxwoods. The outdoor fireplace is gas, but as with all three fireplaces throughout the home, its flue can burn wood. Impeccably constructed by fine-home builder Jay Sifly and designed by esteemed architect Zach Carney, the home was built just ten years ago. It has been featured by Charleston Living Magazine, which highlighted its sophisticated, modern finishes and distinctively easy livability. Incredibly spacious and yet comfortably cozy across all four levels, the home is awash in exquisite appointments and finishes, from wide-plank French oak flooring and thick, smooth crown molding to the elite-tier appliances, custom-built cabinetry, and solid Canadian mahogany doors and windows throughout. The home’s lighting, by a renowned London designer, includes directional recessed downlights spotlighting artwork as well as hidden cove, undercounter, floor, and even shower shampoo niche lighting and incorporates exquisitely handblown glass and crystal fixtures—encompassing pendants, chandeliers, and sconces—from Prague. Bronze and brushed antique chandeliers, pendants, and wall and bath lights with custom silk shades were made by Porta Romana, a United Kingdom company, renowned for its handcrafted lighting pieces found in iconic locations worldwide. Every full bath in the home enjoys windows streaming with light, zero-entry open European rain showers and floating vanities and wall-mounted toilets. All are custom-designed, open-plan, spa-like wet rooms. And yet each bath is uniquely designed and finished, utilizing a variety of carefully selected granite and limestones and light fixtures that are works of art. Guest quarters spread throughout the home can be closed off, creating an immensely comfortable, distinctive home for one or two when other family or friends are not present. Exploration of the home begins with the French-windowed, sidelight-flanked entry door and rising three-story foyer with its beautifully trimmed staircase curving upward, spectacular multi-floor chand
