26 Plum Thicket Rd, Bluffton, SC, 29910
About This Home
With its expansive acreage and private bridge approach, 26 Plum Thicket Road offers a rare sense of arrival and seclusion within Palmetto Bluff. Overlooking the iconic par-3 14th hole of the May River Golf Course, the home captures sweeping views from tee to green to the May River beyond, with the 13th hole framing the surrounding landscape. Designed by renowned architect Bobby McAlpine, the residence blends timeless Lowcountry architecture with refined craftsmanship. Pine floors with bluestone accents, custom built-ins, and intricate trim detail define the interiors, creating a home that is both elegant and inviting. Recently renovated, the property has been thoughtfully updated with a full interior and exterior repaint, new kitchen appliances including Wolf and Sub-Zero, custom lighting, and select structural enhancements. The 7-bedroom compound offers exceptional flexibility, with four bedrooms in the main residence, a two-bedroom guest house, and a private suite above the three-car garage. Indoor living spaces transition seamlessly to expansive outdoor areas, including a rear pool, grilling station, and screened porch-all positioned to take in the panoramic golf-to-river views. Offered fully furnished, this is a true legacy property-combining privacy, architectural pedigree, and one of the most coveted vantage points in Palmetto Bluff.
