This residence was envisioned as a timeless Lowcountry retreat, echoing the classic homes along the water trail while layering in a more contemporary palette of materials and textures. Oriented northeast, the site captures extended water views, with a shallow gallery foyer pulling in southern and western light to warm the home’s central gathering spaces each afternoon.
Everyday living revolves around an open sequence of kitchen, dining, and living areas, all flowing to expansive outdoor porches and terraces. Intimate moments are framed at each end of the home, with a quiet study on one side and a generous owner’s suite on the other. A central spine of gallery halls and a striking feature stair connect the first-floor living spaces to guest accommodations above.
Muted exterior tones anchor the home in its natural setting, while interiors reveal warmer, layered finishes and curated details. Highlights include a contemporary feature stair, a vintage mirror, an oyster shell fireplace, and collected art. The result is a design that blends Lowcountry tradition with modern refinement, balancing everyday casual living with an elevated, highly personal sense of style.
