About this home

Reimagine oceanfront living on one of Hilton Head Island's most exceptional beachfront properties. Set beneath magnificent live oaks and surrounded by mature natural landscaping, this private retreat offers sweeping ocean views, ample room for expansion, and the rare opportunity to renovate, enhance, or create a new coastal estate tailored to your vision. Ideally positioned in the most coveted section of Port Royal Plantation, the property enjoys a peaceful setting away from the island's resort corridor while remaining minutes from renowned dining, golf, shopping, and amenities. The expansive rear deck is perfectly suited for entertaining, oyster roasts, or simply enjoying the ocean breeze and breathtaking coastal views. The existing residence offers 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, with the half bath easily converted back to its original full-bath configuration. Wide-plank pine floors, a beautifully renovated chef's kitchen, and walls of glass create warm, inviting interiors that connect seamlessly with the surrounding landscape. Adding to the property's distinction is its remarkable architectural history. Designed by internationally acclaimed architect Dean Winesett, whose work has appeared in *Architectural Digest* and *Southern Living*, the home was also featured in *Southern Living* and reflects his signature Lowcountry style and craftsmanship. Port Royal Plantation prohibits short-term rentals, preserving the privacy, tranquility, and exceptional quality of life that define this exclusive oceanfront community. Private amenities reserved for property owners and their guests include an oceanfront Beach House and swimming pool overlooking the Atlantic, tennis and pickleball courts, community gardens, leisure trails, and an array of recreational and social offerings. An irreplaceable beachfront setting, celebrated architectural legacy, exceptional private amenities, and endless possibilities combine to create one of the most compelling oceanfront opportunities currently available on Hilton Head Island.
