Buck Island is a rare and remarkable private sanctuary that offers a world of seclusion just moments from one of the Atlantic’s most celebrated resort destinations. Framed by winding tidal creeks and sweeping marsh vistas, this 10-acre estate captures the timeless spirit of the Lowcountry. Represented by The Etheridge Group of Daniel Ravenel Sotheby's International Realty, the island is defined by centuries-old live oaks draped in Spanish moss and a level of privacy that is increasingly rare in the Southern United States. It is a connected coastal estate that provides a complete escape while remaining within reach of world-class marinas, golf, and dining.
