Once in a lifetime opportunity to acquire a private island just minutes from Hilton Head Island. This beautiful island's homes, buildings, pathways, and boardwalks were designed with nature in mind. This coastal jewel is now being made available on the market for the first time.
The Location
Buck Island is situated just off the coast of Hilton Head Island, where Broad Creek gently meets the Calibogue Sound and Intracoastal Waterway. Approximately ten acres of maritime forests provide outstanding and impressive water views from every point on the island.

Included with the Island is a Harbour Town boat slip which is less than a ten-minute boat ride from the slip to Buck Island's dock.
A true generational asset, the main home was constructed in the late 1980's and has been in the same family since.
