Tidesong May River —- Bluffton, South Carolina
Tidesong is the sound on the shores of the brackish May River. Shellfish, songbirds, and pluff mud croak and sing as the tidal river ebbs and flows with dramatically changing views through the day and seasons. A multi-building retreat includes a new home, barn, and guest cottage that connect residents and visitors to the rhythms of nature. The main house has an outdoor carport, lanai, terraces, and pool.
The Barn’s interior design expresses the beauty of raw materials — heavy timber frame construction, natural and dark stained wood cladding, blackened steel accents, limewash plastered fireplace wall
A guest cottage is nestled on the outer peninsula connected to the main residence through an elevated walkway.
