49 Richland Drive, Bluffton

Tucked at thе end οf а quiеt сul-dе-ѕаc on Duck Island-οne οf Belfair's most private and coveted settings-49 Richland offers a rare and expansive 180-degree panorama stretching from marsh to river, where both sunrise and sunset become part of daily life. The arrival is understated. The reveal is unforgettable. As you step inside, the home opens to a sweeping horizon of marsh and sky-wide, uninterrupted, and entirely its own. With no rooftops or neighboring homes in sight, the view feels vast yet deeply personal, shaped by the gentle rhythm of the tides and the ever-changing coastal light. Spanning 4342 square feet, this custom-built residence was designed with a more relaxed, sprawling layout that prioritizes comfort, flow, and connection to its surroundings. The primary living spaces and private office are thoughtfully positioned to capture the full breadth of the landscape, while the main level offers a well-considered bedroom arrangement-including the primary suite and two guest ensuites - creating an ideal balance of privacy and convenience for both everyday living and hosting. Set on a .60-acre homesite-recognized as one of the premier marshfront lots when Belfair was first developed-the property offers a level of privacy and openness rarely found. With approximately 221 feet of marsh frontage, framed by a retaining seawall, the connection to the water is both striking and accessible, even offering the opportunity to kayak directly from your backyard during high tide. The kitchen and primary bath have been beautifully updated, offering a refined balance of style and function. Outdoor living unfolds effortlessly, with a screened porch, outdoor kitchen, patio and outdoor shower-all designed to embrace the serenity and natural beauty that define this setting. A walk-in attic provides exceptional storage, while the enduring quality of custom construction adds to the home's lasting appeal. More than a home, 49 Richland is an experience-where open skies, shifting tides, and quiet surroundings create a sense of ease that is both rare and enduring.
