A rare and remarkable opportunity to own your very own private island, nestled amidst the pristine waterways of the South Carolina Lowcountry. Just minutes by boat from Palmetto Bluff, Bluffton, Hilton Head Island, Daufuskie, and Savannah, Jack Rowe Island offers the perfect blend of exclusivity, accessibility, and timeless natural beauty. Spanning 65 acres of unspoiled paradise, Jack Rowe Island features six deep-water docks, a private airstrip, and nine estate-sized waterfront homesites (permitted and shovel ready), all thoughtfully updated for modern comfort while preserving the island's rich history. The island also boasts a fully furnished Clubhouse and 5 conditioned glamping cabins with air conditioning and bath access. Infrastructure is ready and in place to start living the dream: diesel, electric, water wells, and septic. All equipment on island conveys- including a 22,000 lb Barge with 250 horsepower engine (2023), built in 2023, D2 Caterpillar Dozer, 6 seater Golf Cart, John Deere Tractor with 8 bush hog front end loader and Kubota lawnmower. With centuries-old live oaks, meandering marsh views, and sunset vistas over the river, Jack Rowe Island offers a lifestyle that's becoming almost impossible to find a sanctuary where privacy meets sophistication, and nature meets elegance. This is more than just an island. It's an opportunity to own a piece of the Lowcountry's most coveted waterfront real estate- a place where generations will gather, memories will be made, and luxury is defined by tranquility and timeless beauty.
