Palmetto Bluff Custom Homes
Palmetto Bluff is an expansive, master-planned Lowcountry community spanning over 20,000 acres along the May River, making it one of the largest and most thoughtfully preserved residential developments in the Southeast. Defined by centuries-old live oaks, pristine marshland, winding waterways, and protected natural habitats, Palmetto Bluff was designed to honor the land while offering an elevated, private lifestyle. Residents are drawn to Palmetto Bluff for its sense of seclusion, architectural integrity, and exceptional amenities—including world-class golf, dining, wellness, equestrian facilities, and access to the river and inland waterways. Homes are intentionally spaced to preserve privacy and views, creating a quiet, timeless environment that feels both luxurious and deeply connected to nature. For custom home clients, Palmetto Bluff offers a rare opportunity to build a legacy home in a setting that values craftsmanship, conservation, and a slower, more intentional way of living.
