About This Home
Welcome to 1900 Bruce, an iconic East Beach cottage where classic coastal character meets modern luxury. Deemed one of “The Best Curb Appeal Homes of 2017” by Southern Living, this beautifully reimagined residence captures attention from every angle — thanks in part to its majestic corner Live Oak, graceful landscaping, and exquisite evening lighting.
Nestled in the heart of East Beach, one of St. Simons Island’s most beloved neighborhoods, this 4-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom property is more than just a home — it's a lifestyle. Every detail of this residence has been thoughtfully curated through a successful collaboration between renowned architect John Rentz and general contractor Jeff Anderson. The result is a fresh, functional, and stylish retreat that feels both timeless and entirely of-the-moment.
Step through the front door and into a dynamic interior that radiates warmth and effortless sophistication. The heart of the home — a chef’s dream kitchen — boasts a stunning quartz island, high-end appliances, wine coolers, custom cabinetry, and a spacious butler’s pantry. The kitchen flows seamlessly into a formal dining area, sunroom, and cozy living room with a gas fireplace, creating a layout that’s perfect for entertaining.
The main house features three beautifully appointed bedrooms, each with its own ensuite bath. The primary suite is a private sanctuary, complete with a luxurious bathroom and access to a tranquil porch that overlooks the lush, heated saltwater pool and manicured grounds. Upstairs, two additional ensuite bedrooms offer comfortable accommodations for family or guests.
Your outdoor oasis awaits just beyond the French doors — featuring a saltwater heated pool, sound system, arbor-covered dining space, and a backyard wrapped in blooming jasmine and elegant landscape lighting. A well supplies irrigation and pool make-up water, keeping your grounds pristine and eco-friendly.
Adding even more flexibility is a charming guest cottage located behind the main house, offering a full kitchen, living room, bedroom, and bath — perfect for extended stays, private workspace, or immediate rental income. A separate storage shed and trellis-covered patio round out this fully equipped property.
What’s more, the property is being sold fully furnished, including all fixtures, cookware, and decor — from the kitchen shelves to the built-in bookcases. This home is truly Rental Ready from day one.
Enjoy easy walks to nearby beach access points, or explore the best of St. Simons Island’s restaurants and boutiques by bike or golf cart. Whether you're seeking a peaceful permanent residence, a luxurious second home, or a high-end investment property, 1900 Bruce Drive delivers unmatched lifestyle and value.
