This wooded waterfront property on
Edisto Island features a custom-designed
home, conceived by noted architect,
Lesesne Monteith, and built to allow for the maximum enjoyment of the quintessential pleasures
of the South Carolina Lowcountry.
The deep waters of Russell Creek invite easy access to the North Edisto River, the ICW, and the Atlantic Ocean for large and small boats; but mostly the quiet of the creek is left to the residents who kayak, swim, fish, shrimp, and crab from their docks and the dolphins who enjoy sharing the sunset with them. Close to the Edisto Island National Scenic Byway, the property is 15 minutes from Edisto Beach and an easy 45 minute drive to Charleston’s medical, culinary, and cultural amenities. To approach the house drive through 3.65 acres of ancient live oaks with Spanish moss and groves of palmettos. The house design is a unique blend of island elegance with clean contemporary lines.

On the creek side the house features a screened
"live-in" porch running the entire length of the
home, with a wall of 10 French doors opening the kitchen, dining area, living area, library, and
master bedroom to the corresponding areas
on the porch.
Downstairs are the master bedroom and bath with Jacuzzi tub and shower,
and a half bath for guests. Upstairs are 3 more
bedrooms and two full baths with showers
and tubs.
Exceptional cross ventilation on both floors
enables open-air living for much of the year.
A bonus is the solar panel roof system, which
provides significant green-energy savings in
electricity year round and guilt-free summertime cooling.
This Russell Creek neighborhood is bounded
by protected forests, fields, and wetlands that
create a permanent sanctuary for wildlife
and birds and the promise of a peaceful sanctuary for people into the future. All of Edisto
Island is a part of the 350,000 acre ACE
Basin, a tidal-river basin preserve that will
never be developed.
