Sea Island Preserve is a rare combination of finished amenities, preserved Lowcountry landscape, and well-designed Pulte floor plans. As the community wraps its final phase, the Dunwoody, Hampton, Martin Ray, and Woodward designs each offer a distinct path to living well at Sea Island Preserve. If Johns Island is on your radar, this is the moment to act.
With every amenity complete and more than 360 acres of conserved land, Sea Island Preserve pairs Lowcountry scenery with resort-style living. Minutes from beaches, dining, and everyday conveniences, the community’s final opportunities will include model homes and quick-move options that showcase why Sea Island Preserve has been a buyer favorite from day one.
Why Sea Island Preserve Still Stands Out
Sea Island Preserve is designed around nature and daily ease. Residents enjoy a resort-style pool, pickleball, a playground, miles of trails, and sweeping green space protected for generations. That backdrop, combined with Pulte’s floor plans, explains the strong demand as Sea Island Preserve nears the finish line. With the model homes set to hit the market soon—and a few specs underway—this is a rare chance to own in one of Johns Island’s most talked-about communities.
What Each Plan Does Best
Dunwoody: Kitchen-First Design That Lives Large
If your home revolves around cooking and gathering, the Dunwoody delivers. At Sea Island Preserve, the Dunwoody shines with a gourmet kitchen that feels custom: full-height backsplash, cabinet trim to the ceiling, LED lighting, designer details like shiplap accents, and natural gas cooking. The layout keeps prep, dining, and lounging in easy conversation, which is exactly why the Dunwoody is so popular at Sea Island Preserve. Whether you target the upcoming model release or a spec already in progress, this plan is a clear fit for everyday hosting.
Sea Island Preserve homebuyers consistently gravitate to the Dunwoody’s kitchen-centric layout because it maximizes daily living and entertaining in Sea Island Preserve.
Hampton: All the Spaces, None of the Waste
Value is the headline here. The Hampton smartly includes the rooms buyers actually use—an open kitchen with oversized quartz island and stainless appliances, dining that flows into a comfortable living area, and a thoughtful rear bump-out perfect for a sunroom, play space, or reading nook. Upstairs brings a well-proportioned primary suite, secondary bedrooms, laundry, and a loft.
The Hampton packs all the essentials into a smart, right-sized layout.
Martin Ray: Flexible, Multigenerational by Design
The Martin Ray is built for options. Two bedrooms on the first floor—including an easily accessible full bath across from the secondary bedroom—make day-to-day living simple, while an additional second-story space expands possibilities for guests, hobbies, or long-term family members. Laundry sits near the primary suite for convenience, and the bath/closet package reads upscale with generous storage and cohesive flooring. With multigenerational living on the rise, the Martin Ray’s layout is tailor-made for Sea Island Preserve homeowners who need long-term flexibility.
Sea Island Preserve buyers seeking multigenerational living love the Martin Ray for first-floor sleeping options and adaptable second-story space.
Woodward: Lowcountry Living with an Authentic Second-Story Porch
The Woodward leans into a true Lowcountry feel with its standout second-level porch and an upstairs retreat that can morph as life changes—family lounge, kids’ zone, media space, you decide. The laundry room is impressively outfitted with cabinetry and a sink, and its location next to the primary suite keeps routines easy while offering privacy. In many Woodward homes at Sea Island Preserve, the primary includes a striking bump-out—ideal for a home office, exercise corner, or quiet sitting area—plus a spa-style bath with floor-to-ceiling tile, windowed tub wall, dual vanities, and two walk-in closets.
The Woodward’s double-porch Lowcountry vibe makes it one of the most asked-about plans in Sea Island Preserve.
Amenities, Nature, and Everyday Ease
Sea Island Preserve isn’t just about floor plans—it’s the setting. The community’s conservation acreage, trails, and outdoor amenities put fresh air on the daily agenda. The resort-style pool and pickleball courts keep weekends close to home, while beaches, shopping, and dining are minutes away. For many buyers, that balance—quiet, green surroundings with quick access to Charleston area favorites—defines the appeal of Sea Island Preserve.
Final-Phase: Takeaways for Buyers
- Limited inventory: Sea Island Preserve is in its last chapter. Expect select model homes to be released and a few well-timed specs to hit the market.
- Move-in readiness: Model homes often come with premium finishes—fans, lighting, trim details—already in place, which is a major plus in Sea Island Preserve’s final phase.
- Plan-to-lifestyle match:
- Dunwoody for statement kitchens and everyday hosting.
- Hampton for practical value and right-sized living.
- Martin Ray for multigenerational flexibility.
- Woodward for authentic Lowcountry style and an upstairs porch you’ll actually use.
