Within the private, gated community of Seabrook Island, 4026 Marshwalk Trace introduces a modern coastal townhome with the timeless character of the Lowcountry. Set within The Inlet at Seabrook Island—an exclusive enclave of just eleven luxury residences—the design comes from Island Architects, who will also supervise construction. Expansive windows bring in soft coastal light, while an open main level creates an easy flow between the kitchen, dining, and living areas. That central gathering space extends outdoors to a covered porch, suited to quiet mornings or evenings with friends. Upstairs, a private primary suite and additional bedrooms offer comfortable separation for family and guests. Life here is shaped by island pleasures: a short walk to tennis courts, bike rides under live oaks, and afternoons spent at nearby beaches, golf courses, or the equestrian center, all within the security and privacy of Seabrook Island.

Near the shores of the Wando River, 145 Low Tide Court sits in Wando Village, a vibrant waterfront community with a deep water dock. A modest foyer sets a quietly collected tone, illuminated by a pre‑WWI brass Art Nouveau ceiling lamp with hand-painted glass shades. From there, the home unfolds into an expansive open-concept interior designed to flex with daily life—spaces can be defined through color, light, and furnishings, from a conversation area and family gathering spot in front of the fire to formal dining beneath a colorful 1930s Pate de Vere chandelier. A sunny study and reading room overlooks the garden, offering a calmer counterpoint to the main living volume. In the kitchen, an oversized island with quartz countertops and custom 10′ cabinets anchors the room with generous storage and prep space, ready for everything from weeknight cooking to lingering weekends.
