A private community divided in two

Rose Hill Plantation has all the makings of a classic private community in Bluffton. It has a golf course, Clubhouse, community dock and tennis courts. But what helps this community stand out is that it's divided into two sides: the estate and the golf sides. The estate side is unlike any other community in the area. It features custom southern-style homes on several acres where many residents have horses. And it's home to the Rose Hill Equestrian Club, known for its Charity Polo Classic. Plus, it sits along the Colleton River and has deep-rooted live oaks. "Because of when it was developed, it has these huge, beautiful trees," says broker Maria Skrip of RE/MAX Dream. Skrip lives in Bluffton and has sold homes with her husband, Chris Skrip, since 2010. "If I'm showing a client this community, and they're nature lovers, they just fall in love. The landscaping is just so mature."

Million-dollar estates and new traditional homes

Most properties on the estate side cost between $1 million and $2.5 million. This price tag affords one to four acres of land and a home with at least 3,000 square feet. "Lots are larger on the estate side, usually a couple of acres," says broker Kristy Gonzalez of ERA Evergreen Real Estate. Gonzalez has sold homes across the region for 15 years. "Some people purchase these lots so they can have horses, but others just want the space. It's hard to find larger lots like these in this area." Each home is custom on the estate side, but Gonzalez says there's a noticeable southern style. They have large front porches, gabled roofs and symmetrical exteriors. "Estate is a good way to describe these properties," Gonzalez says. "They're all removed from the road in a very quiet spot, whether on the marsh, the river or woodlands." On the golf side, homes are less expensive, and lots are smaller. There's a mix of new traditional and ranch-style homes with around 2,000 square feet, at least three bedrooms and lots under a quarter-acre. These homes cost anywhere between $550,000 and $800,000.

The Rose Hill Equestrian Center hosts frequent polo matches

The Rose Hill Golf Club features an 18-hole, Gene Hamm-designed course that sprawls across the golf side. The course is open to the public, and community members don't need to purchase a membership. "There's also a rather pretty nature preserve on the golf side," Gonzalez says. "Many houses back up to it, and it's perfect for walking." Plus, the golf side is home to the Tennis Club of the Lowcountry, which requires membership. "They have a very large and competitive tennis team," Skrip says. "It's highly ranked and very competitive. My friend loves to play tennis there." The facility features six clay courts, six lighted courts and a clubhouse with showers and locker facilities. On the estate side, the Rose Hill Equestrian Center has stables and a polo field. The center is known for its Charity Polo Classic, an event led by residents of Rose Hill that dedicates its proceeds to various Lowcountry charities. "People dress up like they're going to the Kentucky Derby," Skrip says. "Businesses will rent a spot on the polo field, put up a tent and then decorate it. They'll have best-dressed and best-hat contests. It's really fun." The estate side also features a community dock, which provides access to the Colleton River.

Lunch at Fair Winds

Fair Winds Bar and Grill is a casual dining spot at the Rose Hill Golf Clubhouse. The restaurant has sandwiches, wraps, salads and more. It also has a full bar and a screened-in patio overlooking the golf course. And they occasionally have live music, according to Skrip. Old Town Bluffton, about 5 miles away, has additional dining options. Captain Woody's Seafood Bar is a local favorite in Old Town, known for their Woody's seafood platters and sea sandwiches. Mi Tierra is another popular spot with authentic Mexican cuisine. Kroger is about 3 miles away in Belfair Towne Village.
