Sullivan’s Island is coastal living at its most refined. Just beyond the entrance to Charleston Harbor, this small barrier island pairs wide, pristine beaches with some of the most distinctive and beautifully designed homes in South Carolina. Architecture here ranges from classic Lowcountry to striking modern builds, all shaped by a shared respect for the landscape and the water that surrounds it.
Life on Sullivan’s Island moves at a deliberate pace. Residents bike to the beach, gather at beloved local restaurants, and protect the island’s quiet, residential feel. With strict zoning, limited commercial development, and front-row access to the Atlantic, Sullivan’s Island offers rare privacy, enduring value, and a beach lifestyle that feels intentionally understated.
