Seaside Solace Residence

Designed for oceanfront living on Seabrook Island, this custom residence was created as a legacy home for a family ready for more space, more time outdoors, and a stronger connection to the Atlantic beyond. Working from a Cape Cod-inspired design by Daniel Beck Architecture, with structural engineering by Stephen West of Tobias & West, LLC, the home includes expansive porches, a screened outdoor living room, Euro wall sliding doors, a family-size plunge pool, and a private boardwalk leading directly to the beach.

Behind its relaxed coastal character is a highly technical structure built for the realities of oceanfront exposure. Driven piles, cast-in-place concrete, steel moment frames, vertical columns, horizontal beams, and engineered connections help the home withstand lateral loads, storm forces, salt air, wind, and water.

Outdoor living spaces were built to the same standard, with elevated cast concrete decks, hidden drains, Ipe decking, and a Sikalastic waterproofing system that manages moisture and extends the life of the structure. Impact-conscious materials carry through the envelope as well, including Marvin windows, NuCedar shake, and Boral trim. The result is a beachfront home that feels effortless and inviting while carrying the strength, detail, and durability required for generations of coastal living.
