Elements of Unusual Design

Family-owned and operated out of Kiawah Island, South Carolina, Buffington Homes brings to life custom homes under a mission to, “Build It As If It Were Our Own.”

Buffington Homes serves clients on Kiawah Island and the Charleston communities, providing custom homebuilding and renovation services to the areas for over 27 years. The homebuilder has been distinguished 10 times nationally and by the Wall Street Journal with its Dream Builder award.

A stand out amongst its projects is Ocean Park Sanctuary.

One-of-a-Kind in South Carolina

The home is located on Kiawah Island, a place known for its natural beauty, wide Atlantic Ocean beach and proximity to luxurious amenities, making the locale a highly desirable place to be. In particular, the home is situated in Kiawah’s guard-gated Ocean Park community, near the famed Ocean Course golf course.

Buffington Homes served as the builder on the project alongside Charleston, South Carolina-based architect Camens Architectural Group and Rancho Santa Fe-based interior designer Claire Sturtevant Interiors.

“When building a custom home, building the team as early as possible is crucial,” shared Buffington Homes Partner and Office Manager Joanna Buffington. After selecting the custom homebuilder, the client worked with Buffington Homes to find an architect and interior design team who aligned with their collective vision.

What came to be of this collaboration was a 9,178-sq.- ft. two-story home (total heated square footage coming out to 5,486) and 763 sq. ft. guest house sitting on a 38,140.9 sq.ft. lot.

A Variety of Unique Design Attributes

The completed residence boasts many unique design qualities, giving the home its character. The expansive family room features vaulted ceilings and exposed beams, with an abundance of natural light peering in from large windows overlooking the lawn. Meanwhile, the second-floor bunk room details a view through the beams to the marsh beyond.
