Despite her stardom, Sandra Bullock has preferred living away from Los Angeles’ hustle and bustle. The actress has homes in both New Orleans and Austin, Texas. Recently, she has decided to list one of her vacation homes for sale. Nestled off the coast of historic Savannah is the beautiful Georgia island beach house of Sandra Bullock that was recently listed. The expansive estate is located on Tybee Island, one of Georgia’s most famous barrier islands. Find out more about this unique property and see why it’s worth every dime of its $6.5 million dollar price tag.
The Property
Bullock first purchased her Tybee Island getaway in 2001. She eventually acquired nine adjacent properties and two separate homes to create this beach escape. The resulting three-acre property has an impressive 200 feet of beachfront.
If you are looking for your very own private retreat on Tybee Island then look no further than this stunning low country estate. Tucked away on almost 3 acres of fenced, beachfront real estate, you can escape it all, in style.
The Homes
The two homes on the Georgia island beach house of Sandra Bullock have a total of seven bedrooms combined, making it perfect for hosting a crowd. You can offer guests rooms in the main house or allow them and yourself more privacy by hosting them in the guest house just next door.
The spacious main house has 3360 square feet of luxury living including a gourmet kitchen, expansive screened porches, a private home gym, a basketball court, a pool and a private entrance onto the beach. The 2848 square foot guest house is also an example of beach bum life at its best, with its own game room, outdoor grill and a crow’s nest for supreme ocean views.
The Furnishings
The home features a relaxed, beach style of decor. Both homes have white slipcovered living room furniture and grass cloth window coverings.
In the main house, the bright, open-concept ground floor features a living room with high, exposed wood ceilings and a fireplace, a large dining room, and a gourmet kitchen. Also on the main floor is a master suite which has an attached sitting room with a freestanding clawfoot tub. Separate from the main house is a 2848 square foot guest house featuring a game room, a grill, and a crow’s nest offering expansive ocean views. When Bullock put the property up for rent in 2018, the listing noted that the abode was perfect for watching dolphins. –Architectural Digest
The high ceilings and abundance of windows give the homes an open, airy feeling. There are plenty of spots on the wide porches to sit and relax as you look over the outdoor pool and beautiful beaches. The home comes to the buyer fully furnished except for a few of Bullock’s personal items.
The Location
Bullock’s estate is prized for its Tybee Island location just outside of Savannah, Georgia. Waterfront properties in this area are few and far between. The location also offers privacy as there is a private boardwalk to the beach complete with lockable gate.
Situated on the northern end of Tybee Island, a quick 20 minute drive will put you in the middle of downtown Historic Savannah should you want a night on the town. This is a unique opportunity to own a large and private beach front estate in the Savannah area.
Savannah is known for its historic architecture, vibrant arts scene, and emerging culinary scene. It’s also called one of America’s most haunted cities and ghost tours are quite popular there!
