Overview
Nestled in the heart of idyllic Wadmalaw Island and surrounded by hundreds of acres of protected conservation land, this extraordinary 15-acre estate offers a rare opportunity to embrace a slower, richer way of life without sacrificing convenience. Just 30 minutes from downtown Charleston and the beaches of Kiawah, the property feels worlds away, where moss-draped live oaks and endless green pastures create a setting of remarkable beauty and tranquility. Take evening walks beneath the island's iconic oak canopy, hop in your golf cart for fresh produce at neighboring Ambrose Family Farm, or simply enjoy the peaceful rhythm of life on one of the Lowcountry's most treasured islands.Thoughtfully designed as a private family compound and completed in 2021, the estate is a celebrationof indoor-outdoor living and entertaining. The stunning main residence overlooks lush Bahia grass pastures, a sparkling saltwater mineral pool, and a landscape that feels more like a private resort than a home. Accordion-style doors open the living spaces to a screened porch, creating seamless flow for gatherings large and small. Beyond the home, every corner of the property invites you to live outdoors--from the new fully screened and irrigated greenhouse to the custom-designed Argentine Santa Maria grilling pavilion and entertainment area. The property also boasts an oversized, multi-use sport court - perfect for pickleball, basketball, volleyball and badminton.For those dreaming of a hobby farm, equestrian retreat, or simply room to roam, the property is already perfectly equipped. Approximately eight acres of fenced pasture currently support a small herd of cattle, while the classic barn and attached guest cottage provide exceptional flexibility for guests, creative pursuits, a home office, or future equestrian use. The barn, ca 2019, is approximately 1500 sq ft with 14 ft clear ceiling height and 10 ft overhead doors at each end. There is an additional 12 x 50 covered area with 12 ft height and includes sewer and 30-amp power connection.Built by an owner with more than four decades of construction expertise, the estate was crafted with uncompromising attention to quality, durability, and efficiency. Cypress siding and trim, an elevated slab, a standing-seam metal roof, impact-rated Pella windows and doors, spray-foam insulation, independent generator capability for both residences, separate septic systems, and a high-capacity reverse osmosis water system are just a few of the features that ensure peace of mind for years to come. The interior walls and ceilings are cypress shiplap except for a brick front wall, which adds texture and complexity to the beautiful spaces.Imagine mornings collecting vegetables from your garden, afternoons tending animals, and evenings gathered around a live-fire feast as the sun sets across the fields. Properties of this caliber are exceptionally rare. Combining luxury, privacy, recreation, sustainable living, and the timeless appeal of the Lowcountry countryside, this is more than a home - it's a lifestyle that would be nearly impossible to recreate today. Whether envisioned as a full-time residence, weekend retreat, family compound, or equestrian estate, this one-of-a-kind property offers the opportunity to live, entertain, garden, farm, and unwind in a setting unlike any other.
