Once you drive out to Sea Island and breathe in that sweet Southern air, you’ll know right away that it’s time to slow down. And the best place to relax is in this custom-built seaside retreat. A total of seven bedrooms and nine bathrooms combine on two levels with views of the Atlantic at every turn. An elegant entry foyer features a double circular staircase leading to the upper-level family room. The master bedroom features a fireplace at the foot of the bed, while downstairs a large country-style kitchen and a luxurious dining room await. But for those lazy, hot days, a pool out back provides the best way to take it easy. $6,500,000, Alice McDonough, Beacham & Company Realtors, 404-495-8396, beacham.com.
