SVH-07 · The Egret

Lowcountry concept plan

4,180 sq ft · 5 bed · 5.5 bath · 3 story · 3-car garage

Stacked porches on every level, wrapping two sides, under a dark standing-seam roof. The Egret is built up rather than out — the concept for a narrow waterfront lot where the view is the reason you bought it.
