Tucked between Indigo Grove Park and the winding edge of Abapoola Creek, this homesite offers one of the most exceptional places to build in Kiawah River. With 16,451 SF and an expansive 12,430 SF buildable area, this generously sized lot gives you the freedom to design a home with sweeping porches, generous outdoor living spaces, and unobstructed views of the freshwater wetlands just beyond your backyard. A protected wetland buffer ensures lasting privacy and preserves the tranquil beauty of the marsh, where redfish tail in the shallows, spoonbills feed at sunrise, and eagles glide overhead. The elongated homesite shape and wide building envelope offer remarkable flexibility for architectural design—ideal for capturing natural light, framing long marsh vistas, and creating seamless indoor-outdoor living. Set along a quiet curve of Jack Island Drive, the homesite enjoys an elevated sense of arrival, with park views to one side and wildlife-rich waterways on the other. Steps from your front door, the scenic nature trail connects you to over 20 miles of paths leading through maritime forest, waterfront overlooks, and some of Kiawah River’s most beloved amenities. Spend mornings at the resort-style Spring House for swim or fitness, enjoy afternoons on the pickleball courts, or wander toward Rosebank Farms where community life unfolds beneath grand live oaks. More than land, this is a rare opportunity to craft a home that feels embraced by nature—where preserved green space, luxury coastal living, and the serenity of the water meet in perfect balance. This homesite is ready to become your Lowcountry sanctuary, built for quiet mornings, golden sunsets, and life lived fully along the river.
