Spring Island Manor "Hidden Treasure" - Homes on the Market

Spring Island Manor "Hidden Treasure"

Located five miles from the highway, Spring Island is connected to the mainland by a causeway. Neither a resort nor a time share,  Spring Island is an extraordinary private community that appeals to the discerning person seeking to escape the commotion and chaos of modern civilization. One-third of the island’s 3,000 acres is dedicated as a nature preserve, ensuring that its untamed beauty will endure.

Built with careful respect for their surroundings, most homes on Spring Island are invisible both from the roadways and from their neighbors, ensuring that nothing intrudes on the primacy of the island’s woods, views and tranquility. Located on a high bluff of the Colleton River, these homes have set a new architectural standard for the Lowcountry while also serving as examples of sensitive, eco-friendly design.

A Perfect Blend - Spring Island, South Carolina - Homes on the Market

A Perfect Blend

What happens when a power couple from New York hires a hotshot architect from Connecticut to design a peaceful getaway on a remote island in the South Carolina Lowcountry? They end up with a remarkable home that complements its extraordinary setting... while completely transcending it.

The two-fold challenge for architect Mark P. Finlay was to create a home that would blend harmoniously with the lush growth and innate tranquility of bucolic Spring Island, SC, while nodding to the architecture of the old South without actually reproducing it.


Callawassie Wonderful

This lovely, Lowcountry-style home embodies the best of past and present, combining the elegance and grace of traditional southern architecture with contemporary, top-of-the-line features. Nestled in the heart of a beautiful live oak forest on Callawassie Island, the house offers glorious, sweeping marsh views of a Colleton River estuary.

Built just three years ago, this handsome 2-story, 3800 sq. ft. home has 4 bedrooms and 4 and 1/2 baths; the 4th bedroom and bath are located in a separate living area (or “bonus room”) above the 2-car garage.
