With wide sandy beaches – 10 miles of beach, to be exact – twinkling waterways, world-famous golf courses and an utterly picturesque town that looks like it’s popped off a postcard, Kiawah Island is so beautiful in its offerings and so serene in its ambience that it’s no wonder everyone is desperate for a slice of island property.
Located 25 miles southwest from the historic town of Charleston, Kiawah Island has been something of a kept secret to South Carolina and the wider Deep South. Don’t expect flocks of tourists here; while, of course, the beach can get busy during peak season, the community feel of the island engenders a blissful sense of serenity.
There’s a great history to the island, too; it dates back to 1670, when the Kiawah Indians led English colonists to settle at Charlestowne Landing.

This includes a spacious rooftop deck boasting panoramic views, a heated infinity pool and spa, and even a private boardwalk straight from the house to the ocean.
And old Southern charm comes alive before one even steps foot beyond the door; the front porch is wide, tall, and wildly romantic, from the white columns to the bottle green window shutters. Inside, a grand entrance with a gallery overlook feels similarly striking in its magnificent state and all-American style.
The interior living spaces include a club room accented by French windows, a great room lined with floor-to-ceiling windows, a wet bar perfect for entertaining, and a sweeping dining area, that features top-of-the-range appliances.
