What a home tour!!!

On the surface, an office home tour may not seem like the most exciting way to spend an hour or two. But, this morning, the Lowcountry office went on a tour which would make master Lowcountry storyteller Pat Conroy envious. We traversed the back roads of St. Helena Island, before emerging at a waterfront paradise along Wallace Creek.

From there, it was off to Polowana Island, which is surrounded by some of the best deep-water property you'll find on the East Coast. This Jenkins Creek property was one of the most amazing homes you may ever see.

Our last stop was a home overlooking Battery Creek, one of the best waterways in Beaufort.

This little tour personified what is great about Beaufort -- Although the properties shared several qualities -- water access, beautiful trees, waterfront privacy, they were all so different.

If you can, try and imagine a home with a light house jutting from the roof. From the light house, enjoy a 360 degree view of the Lowcountry.

Thanks for visiting.
