Terrapin Island
Kiawah Island, South Carolina
12 acres

Award Winning Master Plan

Terrapin Island is a twelve-acre island located on the Northeastern tip of Kiawah Island, South Carolina. Kiawah is one of the premier resort communities on the Eastern Seaboard and Terrapin Island one of its jewels. Terrapin Island is designed for the homeowners who are looking for beauty, tranquility, and ease of mind.

DesignWorks’ master plan for Terrapin Island includes lot shapes and buffer/setback requirements. The unique and distinct architecture of each individual home creates a landscape theme that is the predominant element uniting the island.

Landscape enhancements include the use of indigenous plant material in which lawns are discouraged. Each home site has spectacular marsh views and shared private docks on deep-water tidal creeks.
