Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac and overlooking a stretch of tidal marshland, 423 Snowy Egret Lane is surrounded by the sights and sounds of coastal wildlife. Great egrets and herons frequent the nearby tidal pools, while the home’s elevated position offers long, uninterrupted views across the ever-changing landscape. Mature plantings—including six oaks and eleven palmettos—frame the residence, blending seamlessly with the surrounding maritime forest. With 3,282 heated square feet of interior space, the four-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath home features ten-foot ceilings and refined architectural detailing throughout.
Designed by Wayne Windham and built by Burke Lee in 2005, the home has been thoughtfully maintained and carefully positioned to take full advantage of its natural surroundings.

Brick steps bordered by wrought-iron railings lead to the elevated front porch, creating a formal entrance that reflects the home’s classic architecture and careful proportions. The exterior, painted in 2024, is finished in HardiePlank siding and complemented by Ipe decking on both the front porch and rear terrace.
The entry is elevated and traditional in tone, opening to an expansive central foyer with Brazilian cherry flooring underfoot and soaring ceilings overhead. Interior trim is finely milled, with crown molding, deep baseboards, and solid wood doors. Bright and proportioned, the dining room is set to the left, with tall windows facing the front garden and a dramatic designer chandelier that serves as the room’s visual centerpiece. To the right, a three-stop, cherry-paneled elevator connects all three levels, including the climate-controlled attic.
At the rear, the great room is anchored by a slate-surround gas fireplace and custom built-ins, with French doors that open directly to the deck and outdoor living area. Oversized windows along the back wall bring in natural light and open views of the marsh beyond. Stainless steel cable railings frame the deck, preserving sightlines and adding a clean, contemporary edge. The great room connects to both the kitchen and breakfast area, creating a comfortable and open flow across the primary living spaces, where curated lighting, both recessed and decorative, is used throughout. Plantation shutters provide both light control and continuity across the interiors.
The kitchen is positioned for both connection and utility. Granite countertops, cabinetry, and ceiling-height uppers create a clean, functional workspace, while a suite of stainless-steel appliances—including a Dacor gas cooktop, Sub-Zero Cove dishwasher, GE Monogram refrigerator, and GE double wall ovens—offers updated performance. A sunny breakfast nook sits just beyond, surrounded by windows and ideal for casual dining. From here, a screened porch extends the living space year-round and opens directly to the rear deck, allowing for an easy transition between indoor and outdoor living. A full laundry room with upper and lower cabinetry, a utility sink, and space for storage is positioned just off the kitchen for easy access and day-to-day convenience.
The primary suite occupies a rear corner of the main floor, offering privacy, quiet, and unbroken marsh views. It includes direct access to the rear deck, and a generous en-suite bath with separate vanities, a walk-in shower, and dual walk-in closets.
Upstairs, three additional bedrooms each include their own full bath and ample closet storage. A wide central hallway with Brazilian cherry flooring connects them creating an additional family gathering space. The ceilings, trim, and flooring remain consistent with the main level, reinforcing the home’s architectural cohesion.
Systems have been updated for comfort and efficiency: an Aprilaire whole-house dehumidifier was added in 2023 and is supplemented by individual dehumidifiers in the attic and garage. Windows and doors are impact-rated Pella. Two Carrier HVAC units and a full security system round out the mechanical package, and the oversized three-car garage accommodates vehicles, carts, bikes, and storage with ease. Recent exterior updates include a new asphalt shingle roof and chimney stucco, both completed in 2023.
Landscaping has been designed to complement the home’s setting without overwhelming it. The lot’s natural grade creates a gentle slope toward the marsh, where native grasses, oaks, and palmettos blend into the surrounding environment. The outdoor shower, located just off the garage, is enclosed for privacy and plumbed with both hot and cold water—a practical feature for beach days, gardening, or dog washing. A full irrigation system supports the plantings throughout the property, offering ease of maintenance year-round.
The home is positioned for quiet but remains well connected to Kiawah’s trail system and island amenities. Located an easy bike ride to the Kiawah Island Beach Club or River Course golf club its central location offers unlimited, recreational activities.
A Kiawah Island Club Social Membership is available with the purchase of the home. 423 Snowy Egret Lane is offered partially furnished and may not close before December 2025.
