Each home is designed in the historical Low Country style and oriented around protected 100-year-old live oaks. This intimate community is one of Charleston’s best-kept secrets; promoting walkability with gas lantern-lit homes and walks with views of the surrounding wildlife preserve. The design team was challenged with incorporating the protected, natural landscape and aware of the flood zones. As such, a variety of house plans were designed for the community allowing for front, side, and rear-loaded garage configurations in both on-grade and drive-under garage levels.

With welcoming front porches and the option to have second-floor decks, homebuyers feel a sense of community with their neighbors and can enjoy views of the breathtaking avenue. This plan features a welcoming front porch, open living great room and generously appointed kitchen with adjacent dining space that is connected to a mudroom that leads to a rear screen-in porch. The spacious second-floor loft was designed to be used as a flex space and bedrooms with views of the surrounding land.
