553 Front Nine Lane Kiawah Island, South Carolina

Set along Kiawah’s easternmost tip, Front Nine Lane is a new community of residences inspired by a close connection to the environment. With unprecedented proximity to the world-famous Ocean Course as well as ivory shorelines, rivers, lagoons, marshlands, and endless opportunities for biking and hiking, nature is right at your doorstep. Using an innovative pattern for home placement, the trio formation ensures all homes have equally spectacular vistas of the land and seascapes. By building vertically rather than horizontally, the footprint on the landscape has been minimized, while simultaneously cocooning the homes in local oak canopies and maximizing the views.

The main level is based around an open fl oor plan and indoor/ outdoor living, where there is a screened porch, generous kitchen/ dining area with a center island, and a double-height living room. Upstairs, there are two bedrooms with full bathrooms and a family/ game room.
