The Chestnut

4-Bedroom Low Country Plan

2,855 SQ. FT. | 4 BED | 4.5 BATH | 2-STORY | 2-CAR DRIVE-UNDER

The Chestnut is that rare architectural design that works just as beautifully as a permanent full-time residence as it does a luxury vacation retreat. This stunning 2,855 sq. ft. low country blueprint centers around a grand open-concept living space with premium bi-fold glass doors that completely dissolve the boundary between the interior and a spacious, partially-screened porch.

Featuring a highly desirable main-floor primary suite, a built-in elevator, and a massive 1,496 sq. ft. drive-under garage, The Chestnut delivers effortless, elevated living that is equally at home on a coastal lot, a tidal marsh, or a premium lakeside property.

Bi-Fold Glass Door Flow: Main living spaces open completely to a partially-screened porch, seamlessly blending indoor luxury with outdoor living.

Main-Floor Primary Suite: A luxurious first-floor master retreat featuring a spa-quality en-suite bathroom and a generous walk-in closet.

Three Sizable Upstairs Bedrooms: Second-level bedrooms provide ample, private space for family, guests, or a dedicated home office.

Integrated Multi-Floor Elevator: Built-in elevator access to all levels makes this plan ideal for multi-generational families or aging-in-place design.

Exceptional Under-Home Storage: A 1,496 sq. ft. side-entry drive-under garage accommodates vehicles and coastal gear while keeping the front facade clean.
