About This Home

As of March 2023

1616 Bruce Drive is "Old St. Simons" at it's finest! This East Beach original cottage exudes charm from the white picket fence and brick on the exterior to the original Georgia pine flooring and wood paneled walls on the interior. Current and past Owners have meticulously cared for and generously invested into this property from adding a bunk room sleeping 6, encapsulating the crawl space, adding spray foam insulation into the walls and beneath the flooring, and more. Although this fully-furnished cottage has not been put into the rental market, it could make a great investment property, or a primary or secondary home. There is plenty of room to add a pool or expand the footprint of the house with the oversized fenced-in back yard. What better location than being just steps from the beach and a bicycle ride to some of the island's best and favorite restaurants! *Showings for this property begin on Tuesday, February 21st.
