Modern, cozy coastal charmer, best of everything!
Welcome to 349 Governors – Where Modern Luxury Meets Coastal Comfort
Tucked beneath the sweeping arms of grand oaks and the soft rustle of palmettos of the exclusive Vanderhorst Plantation, 349 Governors invites you to experience the kind of vacation where memories unfold slowly—one golden sunrise, one poolside laugh, one cozy evening at a time.
From the moment you step through the front door, you’re greeted by professionally curated décor in calming beach-inspired tones, designed to bring the ocean breeze indoors. Every room is intentionally crafted for comfort and style, blending modern sophistication with the laid-back spirit of the coast.
At the heart of the home is a chef’s kitchen, where stories are shared over cutting boards and glasses of wine. Whether you’re preparing a seafood feast or a stack of pancakes for sleepy little ones, everything you need is at your fingertips.
The primary suite feels like a tucked-away Bali retreat, with layered textures and tropical touches that make it hard to leave. A second primary bedroom offers a cozy and inviting setting with direct access to the upstairs tanning deck —perfect for sun-soaked lounging. And for the moments when work calls or movie nights beckon, the bonus room adapts to your rhythm—whether as a quiet office, an entertainment lounge, or a cozy extra bedroom with its pull-out couch.
Step outside, and the Lowcountry reveals its magic. The home overlooks a peaceful lagoon where birds glide and trees sway in the breeze. The private pool, protected by a safety fence, becomes your family’s gathering spot—whether for morning swims or evening dips under the stars. (Pool heating available for $125/day + tax.)
Here, everything is close, but nothing feels rushed. A short bike ride takes you to Marsh Island Park, where an observation tower offers views that stretch into forever. The beach, world-class golf, and fine dining are just moments away, yet the quiet serenity of 349 Governors makes it feel like your own private hideaway.
This isn’t just a vacation home—it’s the backdrop to your next chapter of laughter, connection, and coastal joy. Whether you’re hosting a family vacation, a couples’ retreat, or a group getaway, 349 Governors Drive has all the charm, comfort, and elevated touches to make your Lowcountry stay unforgettable.
