About this home
Welcome to 198 Ashantilly—a one-of-a-kind St. Simons residence where exceptional design, luxury construction, island history, and an extraordinarily spacious South End setting come together. This five-bedroom, five-bath home was created with an unusual commitment to both quality and preservation. Rather than demolishing the original pink cottage that stood here, the home was lifted and taken back to its skeleton, with the new residence thoughtfully built around it. These early cottages are part of the architectural story of St. Simons and its important World War II-era history, and portions of the original framing were intentionally preserved within the new home as an architectural art installation. The home's sophisticated pink-and-green, Palm Beach-inspired palette offers another subtle homage to the original cottage. Beyond its story, this is simply a beautifully built home. Sierra Pacific windows, professional-grade appliances, ambrosia maple floors, walnut cabinets and accents, custom cabinetry, designer tile, Restoration Hardware vanities, carefully selected luxury finishes and extra soundproofing create interiors that feel elevated yet comfortable. The primary bath is even prepared for the future addition of a steam shower, if desired. The floor plan was designed for gathering. Five bedrooms and five full baths provide exceptional accommodations for family and guests, while a large pantry adds valuable everyday storage. Upstairs, the oversized fifth bedroom with its own full bath is a standout space that can adapt to the next owner's lifestyle—use it as a second primary suite, an incredible bunk room, or create a spectacular game and media room. And then there is the yard. Space like this is increasingly difficult to find on the South End of St. Simons. The professionally landscaped grounds provide a remarkable sense of openness and breathing room, with a private pool, bocce court, generous gathering areas, and plenty of room to enjoy life outdoors. Directly across from a park, the property benefits from an open green view that makes the setting feel even more expansive. To the rear of the property is the grounds for the St Simons Presbyterian Church. It is a rare combination: the convenience of a South End address without the close-in feeling often associated with it. Located just off Kings Way, 198 Ashantilly places Pier Village, beaches, restaurants, parks, shopping, and favorite island destinations close at hand while offering a private retreat that may make you reluctant to leave home. With around $120,000 in retail furnishings, including Four Hands and other quality pieces, are also included (excludes all art except Slim Arrons photograph that anchors design). The interiors were intentionally furnished as a sophisticated island home rather than simply outfitted as a vacation rental, making the property beautifully suited for a primary residence or second home while also offering vacation-rental potential. 198 Ashantilly is difficult to compare because it would be extraordinarily difficult to recreate. It offers the character and story of old St. Simons within a completely reimagined luxury home, together with five bedrooms and five baths, professional-grade appliances, Sierra Pacific windows, custom finishes, flexible living spaces, a private pool and bocce court, and the kind of expansive South End setting that has become increasingly rare. This is not simply a newer home on St. Simons—it is a home that preserved a piece of the island's past while being designed beautifully for its future. Rental potential exceeds $150,000 gross per year. Listing Agent is owner....
