Tucked within the heart of Palmetto Bluff’s beloved River Road neighborhood, 28 Yearling Road is a masterclass in Lowcountry elegance—where timeless architecture meets modern comfort, and every detail invites you to slow down and stay a while.
Spanning 3,840 square feet, this five-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath home was designed by Allison Ramsey and built by the esteemed Front Light Building Company. The result? A gracious Southern escape that seamlessly blends classic craftsmanship with thoughtful upgrades and an unmistakable sense of place.
From first glance, the home’s curb appeal draws you in with its classic double porches, metal roof, and wraparound design that speaks to its Southern roots. A trio of French doors opens from the front porch into the spacious great room, creating a natural connection between the indoors and outdoors.
The great room is anchored by a Savannah brick fireplace and framed with wide-plank pine floors and custom crown molding. The open-concept layout transitions smoothly into a beautifully appointed kitchen, where a rich oak center island topped with white quartz is surrounded by custom cabinetry, subway tile, and chef-grade appliances.
Off the main living area, a screened porch offers a peaceful place to relax, complete with a tabby-lined gas fireplace and views overlooking the water and a garden designed by Witmer Jones Keefer.
The main floor primary suite offers comfort and privacy, featuring a large walk-in closet and a spa-like ensuite bath with a soaking tub and walk-in shower. Upstairs, you’ll find more bedrooms, including a private guest suite with dual closets and a full bath. Another bedroom shares a bath with a flexible bonus space that could serve as a lounge, office, or additional bedroom, complete with access to a covered upper porch with elevated lake views.
Above the two-car garage, a 635-square-foot carriage house provides a quiet guest suite with its own kitchenette and full bathroom. Its private entrance makes it ideal for visitors or multi-generational living.
This home delivers everyday luxury at every turn. A Generac 24kW whole-house generator ensures year-round peace of mind. The outdoor kitchen showcases a custom Mont Alpi grill station, ideal for entertaining. Both porches come wired with a Sonos sound system for seamless music throughout. Inside, plantation shutters, remote-controlled shades, and shiplap accents add charm and character to every room.
Additional upgrades include epoxy flooring in the garage, elegant landscape lighting, and a 600-square-foot insulated storage room that offers room to grow or space to stow away with ease.
River Road isn’t just one of Palmetto Bluff’s most picturesque neighborhoods; it’s also one of its most connected and community-driven. As an extension of Wilson Village, it offers the charm of classic Lowcountry architecture with a slightly more formal feel and easy access to many of the Bluff’s most beloved amenities.
Residents enjoy quiet streets lined with mature trees, walking and biking trails that wind through the landscape, and close proximity to the 120-acre River Road Preserve—perfect for morning strolls, birdwatching, or simply taking in the beauty of the natural surroundings. The neighborhood weaves in pocket parks and gathering spaces, encouraging a strong sense of community without sacrificing privacy or serenity.
Known as the Garden District of Palmetto Bluff, River Road thoughtfully blends traditional design with nature, creating a lifestyle that feels as peaceful as it is picturesque.
28 Yearling Road offers the ideal blend of classic Lowcountry charm and elevated lakefront living. If you’re looking to experience the beauty of Palmetto Bluff from one of its most sought-after neighborhoods, this thoughtfully designed home is ready to welcome you.
