Stunning Architecture

The homes in River Road have striking architectural designs that reflect historical periods of architecture, with influences from Charleston and Savannah. Classic proportions, symmetry, and rhythm are reflected in the designs of the homes, and this formality and classicism extend into the landscape designs, which feature impeccably manicured gardens and sprawling green spaces. It’s no wonder that River Road is often considered one of the most beautiful neighborhoods in Palmetto Bluff.
