Distinctive Look

This timeless style home and detached garage were given a distinctive look. “The exterior stands out from most of the houses here because it’s painted a really calming shade of blue, with navy-blue shutters, all white trim and a charcoal shingle roof,” says designer Brian Patrick Flynn.

Local Flavor

The overall color scheme for this impressive home that sits on a marsh was inspired by the beautiful coastal location of this popular South Carolina destination, with rich lime green, deep blue and brown-gray colors.

Multifunctional Space

An attractive circular driveway with gray-toned pavers and a graphite tone curb border leads from the street up to the house and detached garage, that was equipped with a pool table and other amenities. “The idea is to go ahead and open the detached garage and be able to just entertain in the front yard as much as you do in the backyard,” says designer Brian Patrick Flynn.

Safe and Secure

A walkway with pavers that have the feel of vintage cut stone off the driveway leads to the front porch of the home. A sign placed in the front yard lets everyone know this home is monitored 24/7 by a top-notch wireless security system.

Enjoy the View

The front door also includes side lights that allow visitors to have a preview of the marsh and stunning views that can be enjoyed from the rear of this property. “The minute you’re approaching the porch, you’re already seeing the million-dollar view out back,” says designer Brian Patrick Flynn.

Attractive and Functional

The entry lock with latch and strike plate in flat black, with optional motorized touchscreen keypad lock, makes an attractive and functional addition to the front door of this home.

Relax and Unwind

The six white indoor/outdoor wooden rocking chairs with sturdy wood composition offer classic porch seating. The weather resistant and easy-to-clean rocking chairs with armrests offer a wonderful way to sit back, relax and enjoy the neighborhood.

Natural Beauty

Live oak trees that twist all around the front and back of the property were incorporated into the landscape design with Palisades Zoysia, a medium-broad textured, high-density turf noted for its shade tolerance and low water-use requirements. “Hilton Head Island is a preservation community and they want to keep all the trees they can,” says build manager Scott Branscom. “These live oak trees with Spanish moss are very beautiful and definitely something you want to keep.”

Well-Chosen Plants

Since the placement of this house encourages low light with indirect sunlight throughout the front yard, a selection of plants were used that favor this type of environment. The plants were strategically placed to welcome the beauty and relaxed style of the Lowcountry.

Sturdy and Stylish

The sturdy white garage doors are made with insulated steel construction. The doors were designed to resemble the elegant wood designs of traditional carriage house doors, and their classic style helps enhance the architectural beauty of the property.

Illuminated Driveway

The exterior outdoor sconces in Coastal Burnished Steel on the garage illuminate the driveway and have a powder coated finish for durability.

Extra Detail

The detached garage includes a bay designed for parking a golf cart, which locals in the gated communities on Hilton Head Island use to get around the area. “They don’t really drive their car from house-to-house, they drive their golf cart,” says designer Brian Patrick Flynn.

Special Space

The bay in the garage for the golf cart is smaller than the other two bays, but the special space includes the same architectural details that makes the exterior of the garage and traditional style home so appealing.

Modern SUV

A modern midsize SUV with the latest features is part of the exciting HGTV Dream Home 2020 prize package and sits parked in the driveway, ready to hit the road for fun weekend road trips.

Easy Rider

User-Friendly Design

Comprehensive Lighting Scheme

The comprehensive lighting scheme for this spectacular costal retreat was done for both function and the beauty of the property. “The lights give you just enough lighting for safety, but also add that nice warmth too,” says build manager Scott Branscom.

Multipurpose Lights

This view from the garage to the garden entrance on the side of the home shows how well-placed lights enhance the look of the property, highlight specific design details and make the walk to and from the garage safe and secure.

From: Brian Patrick Flynn

Step This Way

Stair-riser lights in a bronze finish were used for the stairs that lead up to the home's side door that opens to the laundry room and mudroom inside. “It’s a private entrance for the house just off the garage that allows you to just come in, take your shoes off, head out back and do any type of wet sport you want without having to come in and out of the actual more formal spaces in the house,” says designer Brian Patrick Flynn.

Gorgeous Glow

At night, the transom windows above the garage doors create a gorgeous glow from inside the flexible space that expands the usability of the front yard.

Welcoming Home
