This elevated Lowcountry residence pairs timeless coastal architecture with forward-thinking performance, offering expansive porch living, light-filled interiors, and a design rooted in both beauty and livability. Defined by its gracious scale and seamless connection to the outdoors, the home offers over 867 square feet of outdoor living, including a 627-square-foot wrap-around front porch and a screened porch just off the main living space. These elevated outdoor rooms extend daily life beyond the walls of the home, inviting coastal breezes, slow afternoons, and an easy rhythm between gathering and retreat. Natural light moves effortlessly through the main level, centered around a vaulted family room and open kitchen. A generous island anchors the space, complemented by Thermador appliances and a walk-in scullery designed for effortless entertaining—keeping the kitchen refined and ready as neighbors and guests drift in and out. Privately positioned on the main level, the primary suite offers a quiet retreat with a vaulted ceiling, generous walk-in closet, and spa-like bath. Its proximity to the laundry adds a layer of everyday ease, while a secondary suite on this level provides flexibility for guests, extended stays, or a dedicated office. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms with access to full baths are complemented by a flexible loft—suited for work, media, or quiet moments of pause. The layout balances openness with intention, allowing the home to adapt naturally to both daily living and time spent together. Additional features include a three-car tandem garage with the option for a two-stop elevator, offering convenience and long-term accessibility. Built to Brightwater’s 100% Zero Energy Ready standard, the home delivers exceptional efficiency, improved air quality, and lasting comfort—performance that quietly supports the way the home is lived in. A curated design experience with Brightwater’s team ensures a cohesive, personalized interior shaped around your lifestyle. Set within 2,000 acres of preserved maritime forest, tidal creeks, and open pastures, Kiawah River reflects a life shaped by water, land, and connection. Residents enjoy a riverfront swim and fitness facility, working farm, pickleball and tennis courts, and access to The Dunlin, Auberge Collection, with its waterfront dining and spa. Discover a way of living on Johns Island where thoughtful design and the rhythms of the Lowcountry come together along the river.

Jack Island is our community at low tide—active, connected, and full of movement. Set at the heart of our community, it’s surrounded by water in every direction, with Jack Island Pond at its center and the Kiawah River just beyond. Inspired by the Sea Islands’ historic fishing villages, this neighborhood offers a rare blend of waterfront character and easy access to many of the area’s favorite shared spaces.

Where the Community Gathers

This lively village center features trails that weave between homes and connect to nearby amenities, including the Spring House, dog park, neighborhood pier, and a collection of riverfront gathering spots.

A cool dip under the Lowcountry sun
A quiet sunset along the pier
One moment on land, the next on the water
Just beyond the front door, nature trails begin
