About this home
Welcome to 1518 Bower Lane, a truly exceptional Beau Clowney and LFK Architects-designed custom home built by Whitney Projects, beautifully positioned along the Stono River in the heart of Rushland Plantation. This architecturally stunning residence was thoughtfully designed to capture panoramic river views, natural light, and the surrounding Lowcountry landscape from nearly every room, while blending timeless craftsmanship with over 4,200 square feet of carefully curated living space. Expansive screened porches totaling more than 1,000 square feet create incredible outdoor living areas overlooking the water and surrounding nature. Rushland Plantation offers premier waterfront amenities including a neighborhood pool, pavilion, playground, scenic walking trails, and a deepwater dock, allconveniently located just a short drive from Downtown Charleston and Kiawah Island!
As you walk up the front steps onto the expansive front porch, immediately note the custom Ipe decking and stairs along with beautifully crafted custom handrails that introduce the level of quality and detail carried throughout the home. Step inside to discover Brazilian cherry hardwood floors finished in a rich black stain with a durable polyurethane finish, soaring and varying ceiling heights, expansive windows, and architectural details thoughtfully positioned to frame the surrounding views and fill the home with natural light. The home's flexible floor plan reflects Beau Clowney's signature style, balancing intentional symmetry with carefully placed asymmetrical elements, including strategically positioned corner windows that create both architectural interest and stunning sightlines throughout the home.
The grand dining room serves as the centerpiece of the main living area with vaulted ceilings and incredible natural light, flowing seamlessly into the spacious living room overlooking the rear porches and Stono River. Large transom windows positioned near ceiling level maximize sunlight throughout the space while emphasizing the home's architectural design. The living room centers around a fireplace wrapped in honed Carrara marble slabs, creating a warm and inviting gathering space ideal for entertaining family and guests. Multiple mahogany doors open directly onto the expansive rear screened porch where sweeping river views stretch across the horizon and create an incredible backdrop for everyday living.
The chef's kitchen was thoughtfully designed with both functionality and entertaining in mind and features a Thermador gas range and oven, Thermador custom refrigerator and freezer, wine refrigerator, polished black granite perimeter countertops, and a large center island wrapped in honed Calacatta Gold marble that continues seamlessly into the backsplash. A full walk-in pantry provides additional storage and matching granite finishes throughout. One of the kitchen's standout architectural details is the custom port window above the sink overlooking the river, adding both character and additional natural light to the space. Just off the screened porch, a side grilling deck with a gas pre-run offers the perfect setup for outdoor cooking and entertaining.
The main-level primary suite offers a peaceful private retreat with high ceilings, plantation shutters, large windows overlooking the river, and another set of mahogany doors leading directly onto the rear screened porch. The spacious ensuite bathroom features dual marble vanities, a large soaking tub, custom marble tiled glass shower, additional storage space, and two walk-in closets complete with custom shelving and built-ins. Nearby, the laundry area was designed with both elegance and practicality in mind, featuring black granite countertops, custom closets, and hanging areas.
Also located on the main level is an additional guest bedroom with a full ensuite bathroom featuring a marble vanity, marble tiled shower, large closet, and custom built-ins. A beautifully finished powder room off the main living area adds another layer of luxury with beveled white marble tile walls, polished black granite countertops, a sleek marble sink, and custom lighting. The home also offers convenient elevator access from the finished mudroom area within the garage directly to the main living level.
Upstairs, a stunning loft landing overlooks both the dining and living rooms below and features a custom built-in desk, extensive built-ins, and additional architectural details that continue throughout the second level. A spacious guest suite at the top of the stairs offers expansive Stono River views, a large walk-in closet, and a full ensuite bathroom with marble vanity and floor-to-ceiling tile surrounding the shower and tub. On the opposite side of the landing, you will find a secondary primary suite offering a true retreat complete with a spa-like bath featuring a slab Carrara marble vanity and fully tiled walk-in shower. This bedroom also offers direct access to a private upper deck overlooking the river.
The outdoor living spaces are equally impressive and were intentionally designed to maximize both functionality and the surrounding natural beauty. Multiple Ipe decks and porches, including beautifully stained rear decking and custom Ipe stairs leading to the main living level, create inviting spaces throughout the property. A built-in Ipe bench at the garage-level mudroom entry adds both convenience and thoughtful design continuity. The landscape and hardscape surrounding the home were designed by noted Charleston landscape architect Sheila Wertimer, creating a serene setting that blends beautifully into the natural surroundings. A grove of crepe myrtle trees provides additional privacy while creating a welcoming courtyard approach for guest parking.
Additional features include hurricane-rated windows and doors throughout the entire home, a double-seamed metal roof, multiple covered ground-level patio spaces, and an oversized garage area with two garage doors and ample room for vehicles, golf carts, storage, workout space, and additional flexible uses. The ground-level outdoor spaces also provide excellent potential for a future pool addition if desired.
Rushland Plantation is a breathtaking 500-acre waterfront community nestled along the Stono River on Johns Island. Residents enjoy access to community docks, a clubhouse with pool, scenic walking trails, parks, and preserved natural surroundings that make this one of the most serene and unique communities in the Charleston area. This exceptional property offers a rare opportunity to own a true architectural masterpiece that perfectly balances luxury, craftsmanship, privacy, and Lowcountry living. Don't miss your chance to experience this incredible home before it's gone!...
