Kiawah River New Construction Homes

An Active, Marshfront Community on Johns Island, SC

Kiawah River has crafted a sea island lifestyle combined with timeless aesthetics that is hard to find in the Charleston market. This 2,000 acre coastal community is ideal for buyers who want premier, new construction homes surrounded by nature and outdoor activities. As the Low Country’s first agrihood, Kiawah River was designed by landscape architect Scott Parker to tie in the area’s agricultural heritage and preserve the authentic beauty of the scenery. Neighbors can enjoy meadows planted with native flowers, fish along the marsh flats, crab from the community dock, bike the many nature trails lacing the 20 miles of waterfront, pet farm animals or get cheese from The Goatery, kayak or paddleboard in the creeks, or birdwatch for numerous species calling this area home.

Amenities include the Spring House with Junior Olympic pool overlooking the marsh and state of the art fitness center. Proposed plans include The Dunlin resort with 72 guest rooms and 19 villas, plus The Landing featuring Jack Island Restaurant. Just outside of the community, you’ll find fantastic shopping and dining at Freshfields Village (less than a 10 minute drive). The closest public beach access is Beachwalker Park (located 10 minutes away on Kiawah Island and operated by Charleston County Parks). Downtown Charleston is just over a 30 minute drive. While some buyers feel the neighborhood is too far removed from the city, others choose the tradeoff to live surrounded by nature and wide open spaces.
