On a quiet street with lanky boughs overhanging with wisps of moss, and gas-lit lamp posts trailing down the block, stands this house with a brick entrance path and a charming rocking chair porch, typical of the laid-back Lowcountry lifestyle associated with coastal South Carolina.
Located in the resort community of Palmetto Bluff, this brand new residence revives the simple life of yesteryear, but with all the amenities, comfort and ease expected of a contemporary resort.
"It’s a step back in time," said Tina Necrason at Montage International, a resort management company. "You look out your window and see kids on their bikes." Residents often leave their doors unlocked, she said.
The home’s design reflects the larger ethos of the community, with traditional Lowcountry architecture and an emphasis on indoor-outdoor living. There are open-concept rooms, high-ceilings and a large enclosed porch that intentionally cools down residents of the subtropical region with constant airflow. The simple, white interior, meanwhile, is warmed by splashes of brick and "beautiful old reclaimed pine floors that trace back to the Civil War," Mr. Necrason said.
