Seabrook Island’s natural beauty, top-notch amenities, and close-knit community genuinely makes it a place like no other, and I count myself lucky to reside here.

Longtime South Carolina visitors, my family and I purchased in 2006 and made Seabrook Island our permanent home in 2009. We’ve been in paradise ever since.

A little background on how this came to be:

I had been coming to South Carolina since my twenties, with my visits gradually evolving to include my wife and three kids in tow. We frequented Hilton Head, which was great but became too busy and crowded for our liking. My family and I stopped in Charleston on one of our return trips from Hilton Head back home to tropical Cincinnati, Ohio, and we absolutely fell in love with the city. While searching for a nearby beach community where we could purchase a vacation property, we came across Seabrook Island. On our fourth visit to Seabrook, my wife told me we were not leaving without buying a home here. So, we did– on that very trip.

What began as a twenty-year plan to buy and rent out a vacation home until our children were college-bound and retirement was on the horizon changed quickly. We fell increasingly in love with Seabrook Island and increasingly tired of the eleven-hour road trip to get here (even worse, the eleven hours to get back home). So, the original long-term plan became short-term, and we permanently moved from Ohio to Seabrook Island. We have never looked back.

I had been a Realtor in Cincinnati for a dozen years, so naturally, I started working at Seabrook Island Real Estate, where I have been a part of the team since our move. We purchased our home knowing that Club membership was required then, and we’ve been proud Club members since.

Now, we have been Seabrookers for about eighteen years. We raised our children here, sending them to middle/high school in historic downtown Charleston, then off to Clemson University (Go Tigers!). We built a new home here, and we have enjoyed every moment of our time on Seabrook.

I would be most pleased to assist if you have questions about making Seabrook Island part of your plans. It certainly worked for us!
