Johns Island, SC | Big-Sky Lowcountry Living.

Welcome to Johns Island

Johns Island is Charleston’s big-sky Lowcountry: ancient live oaks, open horizons, and water at the end of half the roads you take. Life here breathes—farm stands, destination dining along Maybank, and starry nights you can actually see. Weekends swing wide: paddling the Stono, equestrian lessons, oyster roasts that run long; weekdays are a straight shot to town when meetings call. It’s the rare place where Johns Island, SC, gives you space to garden, room for a skiff nearby, and the easy luxury of coming home to quiet.
 

Kiawah River

Johns Island's headline luxury community. Waterfront homes, big sky marsh views, trails, a working farm, and that "sea-island village" feel that's drawing high-end buyers from all over. It's essentially resort-style Lowcountry living with real resale gravity because inventory here stays tight.
 

Briar's Creek

Gated, private, and built around the golf-and-marsh lifestyle. Large custom homes on oversized lots, deep natural buffers, and a quiet, tucked-away vibe that feels miles from everything. even though it isn't. Strong pull for move-up buyers and anyone craving space and privacy.
 

Stonoview

One of the go-to neighborhoods for boaters who still want a true community setup. Think newer Lowcountry homes, neighborhood pool, docks, and easy access to the Stono and Intracoastal. Buyers love the turnkey coastal vibe; sellers love the broad demand.
 

Oakfield

Classic Johns Island "newer neighborhood done right." Sidewalks, lakes, parks, and a mix of one-story and two-story homes that work for everybody, from young families to downsizers. It stays popular because it hits value, location, and livability all at once.
 

Headquarters Island / Headquarters Plantation

Waterfront-leaning, nature-forward, and quietly upscale. You'll find custom homes, marsh and river views in pockets, and a more secluded feel while still being close to Maybank Highway and downtown Charleston. A smart buy for people who want land and lifestyle.
 

Sea Island Preserve

If your buyer says "I want new construction but I don't want cookie-cutter," this is where you look. Modern Lowcountry homes, protected green space, neighborhood amenities, and a clean, cohesive feel. Sellers here benefit from steady traffic because it's one of the island's most searched communities.
 

Whitney Lake

A newer, lake-centered neighborhood with a relaxed, family-friendly vibe. Homes are recent builds with open layouts, trails and water views, and a strong neighborhood energy. Great value for buyers wanting space now, and an easy resale story later.
 

Fenwick Hall Plantation

For the buyer who wants acreage, equestrian heritage, and that old-Charleston countryside feel. Larger parcels, custom builds, and a setting that still feels authentically rural Johns Island. Sellers do well here because there's nothing else quite like it.
 

Gift Plantation

Established, wooded, and full of the mature-oak charm people move to Johns Island for.You'll see classic Lowcountry homes on roomy lots, a neighborly feel, and quick access to Bohicket and the Kiawah/Seabrook corridor. Reliable demand makes pricing and resale straightforward.
