Real Estate on Kiawah Island, SC

Kiawah Island is located just 30 minutes south of historic downtown Charleston. Kiawah Island is one of three private resort communities in the Charleston area (another one of which is Seabrook Island, located just south of Kiawah Island). Kiawah Island attracts people who love golf, tennis, wildlife, and a private beach. Access to Kiawah Island is restricted to home owners and vacation renters of the island. The only public access to Kiawah Island is the county park, which is on the south tip of Kiawah Island and has paid admission. Kiawah Island is somewhat removed from the hustle and bustle of Charleston, but it's still just a short drive to historic downtown Charleston. There is a nice market (Freshfields Market) located between Kiawah Island and Seabrook Island with restaurants, a grocery store, banks, a sports store, clothing stores, and general stores. This market has made the area more appealing because residents now have easy access to all the necessities of life with no need to leave the beach.
Kiawah Island Real Estate
Real estate on Kiawah Island is some of the most expensive in the Charleston area. The average home price on Kiawah Island is just over a million dollars, but you can find condos and town homes within walking distance to the beach for $300,000 and up. Kiawah is a great place to purchase a second home because these homes can all be placed on rental programs to offset the costs of upkeep. Real estate in Kiawah has appreciated well over the last ten years and seems to be affected less by the rise and fall of the national real estate market.
All new construction homes on Kiawah have to pass the town’s architectural review board before any new homes can even be started. Combine this strict review with the looser budgets that most residents of the island have to create unique homes, and you’ll find some of the most diverse and architecturally appealing real estate in the Charleston area.

Things to do on Kiawah Island, SC
Kiawah Island is a choice vacation destination for celebrities and business executives who enjoy the privacy the island brings, the world class golf courses on Kiawah and Seabrook, and the top notch accommodations. Kiawah is just a 30 minute drive from historic Charleston, so there are plenty of options for entertainment if you decide to leave the island. Kiawah and Seabrook are both very different from the other beaches in Charleston because of the lower density development that has left so much of these islands natural. This makes Kiawah a great place for those who enjoy coastal wildlife and the serenity of nature. You will find miles of nature trails for walking and biking throughout Kiawah. With the Atlantic Ocean on one side and large expanses of marshes on the other, Kiawah is also a great place to kayak and swim. For those who like to fish, the north side of Kiawah Island is great for surf fishing, and the Bohicket Marina is just a short drive. Golf is Kiawah Island’s biggest draw, because this is an area where you can literally play like the pros. Kiawah Island hosted the 1991 Ryder Cup, the 1997 and 2003 World Cup of Golf, and the 2007 PGA Seniors Cup. In addition to these titles, Kiawah Island’s Ocean Course has been selected to host the 2012 PGA championship.
