Just listed in the heart of Harbour Town – this beautiful Lighthouse II penthouse is immaculate.  Rarely on the market, this is a great opportunity in Sea Pines Plantation.  Two bedrooms were combined to form huge master suite with spectacular bathroom.  Details abound in this villa – crown molding, coffered ceilings, teak floors and fabulous [...]

Hampton Hall represents one of the best values available in Hilton Head and the Low Country.  Hampton Hall offers unbelievable amenities are optional for the property owner – if you don’t want to join the club you don’t have to, which is different from some of the other developments that have been hit harder through [...]
