ABOUT PALMETTO BLUFF...

Encircled by ribbons of rivers, with streams trickling through marsh to a pristine Lowcountry landscape, Palmetto Bluff retreats from the modern world into its own peaceful splendor. You'll bike the quiet streets with no hurry or cares in the world. Play a game of bocce ball or croquet on a perfectly manicured lawn or relax and unwind in rocking chairs on a comfortable porch.

The sunny neighborhood streets encourage unhurried time on the porch and spending quality time together with loved ones. It's the private community that time forgot, but that discerning travelers will always remember.

Families who love Kiawah Island, Sea Island and Hilton Head will love Palmetto Bluff even more. Your kids can splash in the pool, catch the breeze on a boat and try their hand at a game of bocce. There's also a boat center with kayaks, canoes, and paddleboards. You can forsake the car for family bike rides along the quiet streets and miles of nature trails. Adventures await as there is no shortage of activities at Palmetto Bluff including backwater boating, kayaking, fishing, beachcombing, crabbing, water skiing and tubing.

Within the gates of this master-planned community is the Montage Resort. Many have praised Palmetto Bluff's collection of spa facilities, tennis, pickleball, boating, golf, shopping and fine dining.

An extraordinary property

Nothing in this house or its surroundings is anything but perfect comfort. It is luxurious, yet understated. One feels comfortable, not only because the house is so well designed, it’s as if the owners filled it with goodies. Every imaginable thing is in the house. Just as an example, there’s like 7 different types of food processors and juice makers. But the real point is comfort, It is a remarkable piece of property. The concierge service is extraordinary. An incredible find.
