508 Rivera Drive

St. Simons Island, GA 31522

Welcome to 508 Rivera Drive, a stunning mid-South Island home that has undergone a complete renovation over the last 3-4 years; transforming this revered classic ranch into a home that embraces & extols a more modern design & floorplan yet still retaining original charm & character. The HVAC system is nearly new at 2 years, the water heater is 3 years old and the roof 14. Many thoughtful design decisions were made during the transformation; opening up the floorplan of the home, installing all new windows (w/the exception of the one in the garage & one in the primary bathroom), new doors, new locks, a fabulous new backsplash, Corian countertops, stainless appliances, new hood, custom soft close cabinetry and crown moulding throughout. Beautiful wide plank LVT flooring, recessed lighting, a fabulous gas fireplace (tank on exterior is serviced by Kash Gas), all new attic insulation, brand new electrical box, and the addition of a 220 outlet in the garage for EV/ Hybrid charging make this home truly "move in ready"! Perhaps the most lovely addition to the home is the spectacular back porch, extending your living & entertaining space. A new 12 foot sliding glass door beckons you out to a fully screened & spacious room with a beautifully whitewashed vaulted ceiling & views abound of lush plantings and trees, including a seriously producing grapefruit tree ( salty dogs or greyhounds on the porch anyone?) & a gorgeous grey bismarck palm. The back yard has been newly fenced, an irrigation system and well add to the ease of caring for the yard and then there's the coastal must have; an outdoor shower..you live on an island, right?! The landscape lighting throughout the back & front yard really set off the mood in the evenings, wait until you see the 60 year old live oak out front gently lit on a balmy S. Georgia evening, magic. Take the time to come see this home; with it's ideal location, beautiful mature trees, friendly neighbors, a quick bop to the beach and restaurants & shopping only 2-3 minutes away, it really does check the boxes. The flood insurance is very reasonable at $1,458.00 annually and fully transferable and there is no hoa, but a wonderful voluntary community association at a cost of $35.00 yearly. Call your favorite realtor to set up a showing, we'd love to have you in the neighborhood!
