CHARLESTON, S.C. (March 20, 2023)– Situated along the shores of the Atlantic Ocean, 2411 Atlantic Avenue offers an abundance of sophistication and charm along with an impeccably designed interior filled with hand-curated finishes. The 4,350 square foot home recently closed for $10,100,000, with Robertson Allen of The Cassina Group representing the sellers. The property is the highest-priced home sold on Sullivan’s Island this year, and the fourth highest home sale ever recorded on the island.
“2411 Atlantic Avenue is the epitome of Sullivan’s Island living,” said Robertson Allen, founding partner of The Cassina Group. “From the home’s oceanside yard and pool to its expertly designed interior, the exclusive property truly embodies the Lowcountry. I am thrilled to have represented the owners on the sale of this stunning Sullivan’s Island home.”
The property recently underwent extensive renovations, completed under the direction of renowned Charleston interior designer Jenny Keenan and Dufford Young Architects, with no space left untouched. Robertson Allen previously represented both the owners and the buyers, when the property last sold in February of 2021. The list of renovations is extensive but interior highlights include white oak flooring throughout, all new appliances, Waterworks fixtures, specially sourced light fixtures, custom window treatments in all rooms, custom wallpaper, and completely remodeled bathrooms and kitchen. Upon entering, floor to ceiling windows and French doors draw beautiful light from the beach that punctuates the European white oak floors, built-in details, shiplap accents, a new fireplace, and well-appointed craftsmanship throughout the sprawling space. Just beyond the living space is the fully renovated kitchen, which offers floor to ceiling windows, a breakfast nook, and top-of-the-line finishes including a new island, custom cabinetry and lighting, handmade Stephen Antonson Harlequin Pendants, a La Cornue range, and new Sub Zero appliances.
The Cassina Group has participated in the sale of nearly half of the nine properties sold on Sullivan’s Island in 2023, including the two highest-priced transactions at 2411 Atlantic Avenue (with Robertson Allen representing the sellers) and 812 Conquest Avenue (with Tim Schneider representing the buyers). The firm currently ranks as the #1 company on Sullivan’s Island for 2023, with nearly $24 million in sales, and finished 2022 as the #1 company on Sullivan’s Island.
