5 Lowcountry Homes from Farmhouse Acres to Waterfront Living

Set on 11.4 acres in Cameron, South Carolina, this well-maintained ranch-style farmhouse pairs easy everyday comfort with a true working-horse setup. The three-bedroom, two-bath residence is joined by a metal horse barn with five stalls, a tack room, and both water and electricity, alongside wood and electric fenced pastures designed for smooth daily routines. A She Shed with air-conditioning adds extra storage and a second tack room, while a tobacco barn offers dedicated hay storage. Outside, an inground swimming pool and beautiful Angel Oaks anchor the grounds, with fields stretching as far as the eye can see. Practical updates include a new roof and windows, a Rinnai tankless water heater, Bathfitter showers, plus a new city water line and underground electric lines installed in 2023. Farm equipment conveys, including a mower, tractor with attachments, and a Polaris Ranger Crew—ready for life at an unhurried, wide-open pace.

Along the water’s edge in the Stono Ferry golf community, this traditional home pairs a relaxed country club rhythm with thoughtfully designed living spaces. A full covered front porch sets a welcoming tone, leading to a light-filled foyer with a dedicated study and a formal dining room topped by a tray ceiling. The great room brings warmth and texture with a wood plank ceiling, gas fireplace, and custom shelving, flowing into a kitchen with abundant cabinetry, newer stainless steel appliances, and a generous peninsula beside the casual dining area overlooking the backyard and pond. A first-floor primary suite offers a quiet retreat with a tray ceiling, garden tub, separate shower, dual-sink vanity, and walk-in closet. Outside, a deck with pergola, hot tub, pavered patio, and two koi ponds create an easygoing setting for evenings by the water.

On a quiet street in Mount Pleasant, this highly upgraded Charleston-style home blends classic character with thoughtful modern touches.

The gourmet kitchen is designed for everyday ease, with quartz countertops, a designer backsplash, copper sink, pot filler, and a large pantry. Downstairs, the primary bath centers on a spacious walk-in shower with dual heads. Upstairs, additional bedrooms are joined by a flexible bonus-room option. Outdoors, a screened-in porch extends living space into a stone patio and fully fenced yard, complete with a Hot Springs saltwater hot tub. A one-car garage keeps essentials neatly tucked away.

With the Wando River nearby, 145 Low Tide Court sits in Wando Village, a vibrant waterfront community with a deep water dock. A modest foyer sets an artful tone, lit by a pre‑WWI brass Art Nouveau ceiling lamp with hand-painted glass shades. Beyond the hall, the home opens dramatically into an expansive open-concept volume—an inviting canvas where color, light, and furnishings can define distinct moments. Picture a conversation area, a family gathering spot in front of the fire, and formal dining beneath a colorful 1930s Pate de Vere chandelier. A sunny study and reading room looks out over the garden, while the chef’s kitchen anchors daily life with an oversized island, quartz countertops, and custom 10-foot cabinets designed for generous storage and prep. It’s a setting that rewards both creativity and ease, day after day.

On Commanders Island Road in Georgetown, this low-country dream home lets the past meet the present with an exterior rich in character and craft. A palette of warm wood tones is paired with real cypress shutters and a stained cypress porch ceiling, while craftsman columns, hand-cut exposed rafter tails, and classic brick-work add depth and texture. Lap and staggered shake siding brings a tailored rhythm, set off by crisp black accents. Built with durability in mind, the home layers Hardi-plank siding and soffits with PVC fascia, vinyl windows, and fiberglass doors with synthetic jambs, plus aluminum powder-coated railings and full gutters piped away from the house. Even the roofline is thoughtfully finished with 25-year architectural shingles and a metal accent roof. The front porch, with its herringbone brick floor, sets a welcoming tone for everyday arrivals.
