Dewees Island Escape
Dewees Island is built on enduring principles of environmental respect, planned simplicity, and preservation. This newly constructed timber frame island home exemplifies those principals.
A one-of-a-kind newly constructed timber frame home with views of the marsh and Intracoastal Waterway provides a scenic and peaceful escape from the hurried life. Heirloom-quality materials and architectural and engineering design create a beautiful, strong, enduring, and efficient home.
This home offers 3 private bedrooms with generous closets; 3 baths; a gathering room; 2 large timber frame porches; and a washer and dryer.
The Natural Beauty of Dewees Island will endure for generations.
The philosophy of Dewees Island embraces both our past and our future by understanding the benefits of living in harmony with nature. The outcome of this partnership is a secluded island where the wonders of nature provide a retreat from mainstream life.
Here, all of the rules of traditional beachfront real estate development were broken. The process was driven by restoration and preservation, not destruction and removal. There are no cars, golf courses or manicured lawns and there will never be a stoplight or a strip mall. Instead you will find acres of flourishing live oak, pine and marsh, shores covered in oysters and crabs and lakes teeming with fish, alligators and birds. And one of the most pristine, private and preserved beaches in the country. Only 150 properties on the entire island.
Island guests are expected to honor the principles of the island which will ensure that the pristine, natural beauty of Dewees Island will endure for generations. Dewees Island has no gas stations, restaurants or grocery stores, and residents get around by golf cart or on foot. A ferry based at the Dewees Marina on the Isle of Palms, runs back and forth from early morning to late night. The scenic journey lasts 20 minutes. Other island amenities include an environmental education center, a clubhouse, pool and two tennis courts, basketball, great fishing, crabbing, beach combing and the opportunity to unwind and relax.
