In the heart of South Carolina’s Lowcountry, where the marsh grass dances to the rhythm of the tides and the air carries the scent of salt and pine, sits a property that redefines the standard for coastal luxury. Welcome to Heron Hall, a preeminent 10-acre waterfront estate within the prestigious Palmetto Bluff community, now offering a rare opportunity to own a piece of the South’s most coveted shoreline.

Represented by Vicky Mitchener and Ducie Stark of Dickens Mitchener, this sanctuary isn’t just a home—it is a legacy. Boasting over 658 feet of pristine May River frontage, the estate is positioned to offer panoramic views that shift like a watercolor painting from dawn until dusk. The gated entrance opens to a world of absolute privacy, where moss-draped oaks frame a compound designed for those who seek both solace and sophistication.

The estate, comprising a main residence and a fully appointed guest house, features a total of 9 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms. Inside, the interiors serve as a masterclass in craftsmanship; soaring beamed cathedral ceilings and exquisite millwork provide a sense of volume, while reclaimed wood flooring anchors the spaces in warmth and history. Every room has been oriented to capture the breathtaking views of the river and marsh, blurring the lines between the refined indoors and the wild beauty of the surrounding nature.

The main residence is thoughtfully divided into zones of purpose. The primary wing serves as a private sanctuary, featuring dual spa-inspired bathrooms and expansive custom closets. At the heart of the home lies a gourmet kitchen that flows seamlessly into the family and breakfast rooms, acting as the gravitational center for daily life. For the entertainer, the lower level is a revelation, housing a temperature-controlled wine room, media and game rooms, a pressing room, and a dedicated craft space.

In Palmetto Bluff, life is lived outside. Heron Hall facilitates this lifestyle with a massive screened porch, an infinity-edge pool that seems to spill into the river, and an outdoor fireplace for cool Carolina evenings. Beyond the aesthetics, the estate is a marvel of modern utility, featuring five oversized garage bays, smart home technology, a central mechanical building, and a full-estate generator.

To live at Heron Hall is to be part of the Montage resort community—a 20,000-acre guard-gated wilderness situated perfectly between Hilton Head Island and Savannah, Georgia. It is a Lowcountry masterpiece curated for comfort, hospitality, and total privacy.
