Welcome to 82 Rose Dhu Creek! This exceptionally maintained 5 bedroom, 4.5 bath property, sitting on almost 4 acres with a ~2000SF barn and 3+ car garage, is nothing short of exceptional. Rarely available with an original owner, this estate in Rose Dhu Creek Plantation is ready for its new owner. Sprawling nearly 4 acres, the estate offers an extraordinary opportunity to create a true family compound in one of Bluffton's best-kept secrets. Designed by prominent architect Donald Gardner, the 5-bedroom residence has been renovated with recent mechanical and cosmetic improvements that showcase exceptional craftsmanship throughout. Custom details include 2 full Isokern fireplaces, Marvin windows, Pella Architectural Series doors, cypress ceilings, a beautifully remodeled owner's bath, a separate screened porch pavilion/retreat, a potting/storage shed, and an oversized 3-car garage with lift accommodation capabilities. The property creates an opportunity rarely found in Rose Dhu Creek. Already plumbed with city water and sewer, the large lot provides the perfect opportunity for a guest house, additional family residence, resort-style pool, and other amenities, allowing the estate to evolve into a one-of-a-kind private compound. It features an approximately 2,000-square-foot custom post-and-beam barn, designed by Tom Parker and completed in 2024. The barn features an epoxied slab, 100-amp electric service, cypress ceilings, and spray-foam insulation. It offers incredible flexibility for entertaining, hobbies, RV/boat storage, or equestrian use, with views over the nearly 2-acre (530-foot pasture and run in shed) fenced paddock. Rose Dhu Creek Plantation provides a distinctive Lowcountry lifestyle with gated entry, miles of leisure/horse trails, equestrian facilities and stables, a community pool, and a community pavilion. Ideally located just 5 minutes from Old Town Bluffton, 10 minutes to Buckwalter, 20 minutes to Hilton Head Island, and 25 minutes from Historic Savannah, properties of this caliber and versatility are exceedingly rare.

Set beneath a cathedral of majestic live oaks draped in Spanish moss, just a short distance from Old Town Bluffton, is something increasingly rare: approximately five acres of privacy, character and possibility, anchored by a thoughtfully renovated European-inspired cottage and artist's retreat.This is a property about what was, what is, and what could be. Tucked naturally into the landscape, the home has an authenticity that cannot be manufactured. Inside, the renovation celebrates its character rather than erasing it. Soaring wood-clad ceilings bring warmth and architectural dimension to the main living space, where abundant windows frame the surrounding landscape. A rustic, old-world fireplace and substantial pine mantel create the heart of the room, while polished concrete floors, natural woods and collected details give the interiors a sophisticated yet wonderfully unpretentious character.The kitchen is designed for the discerning cook, pairing generous work surfaces and professional-style appliances with rich wood counters and contrasting cabinetry. Two primary suites on the first floor offer exceptional flexibility for owners, guests or multigenerational living.Upstairs, the home's creative spirit continues. An additional space offers the potential for another bedroom or private artist's studio, while a separate loft opens the imagination-office, reading room, music room or creative retreat.Outside, five acres become a private Lowcountry sanctuary. Ancient live oaks stretch across the property, an outdoor fire pit creates a natural gathering place, and multiple sheds and workshops add utility, character and opportunity.And then there is what could be. As Bluffton continues to evolve, acreage of this scale so close to Old Town becomes increasingly difficult to find. Current zoning may provide an opportunity to explore additional development, creating a compelling intersection of lifestyle, land and future potential. Preserve the retreat. Create a multigenerational compound. Explore future possibilities. Or simply become the next steward of an extraordinary piece of Bluffton and write its next chapter.
