On Eagle Island, where only 17 homesites exist, exclusivity is not an aspiration—it is a reality. The newest entry into this coveted market is 79 Trailing Vine Way, presented by Pam Harrington of Pam Harrington Exclusives at $8,495,000. Designed by architect Wayne Windham and built by Steve Brenner of Solaris Inc., the five-bedroom, five-and-a-half-bath estate pairs meticulous craftsmanship with modern Lowcountry sensibilities. Its west-facing position captures sunsets that sweep across the Atlantic Ocean, Kiawah River, and Captain Sam’s Spit, while a shared dock and protected golf course frontage preserve the privacy of its panoramic outlook.

The home’s presence is defined by its connection to the water and sky. A soaring rotunda with clerestory windows anchors the entry, leading to a central staircase framed in hand-hewn bent wood. Tray ceilings with integrated lighting, cased arched openings, and French oak flooring lend a sense of refined continuity. The walnut-paneled library features a double-sided fireplace, while wraparound decks and covered balconies—finished with cable railings—extend the living space into the open air.

Impact-rated, floor-to-ceiling glass maximizes natural light and frames marsh-to-ocean sightlines. Smart features, including a full-home Sonos system and Lutron lighting and shades that adapt to daylight, bring discreet modern convenience.

The kitchen’s focal point is a Brazilian Azur quartz island that commands attention without overpowering its surroundings. Top-tier stainless appliances, custom cabinetry, and recessed gallery lighting create a space that is equally suited for family gatherings and chef-driven entertaining. From here, sweeping marsh-to-ocean views remain uninterrupted.

Located on the main level, the primary suite offers a fireplace, a spa-inspired bath, and a fully outfitted dressing room. It shares the home’s defining feature—expansive views—ensuring the first and last moments of each day are framed by water and light.

Three fireplaces (including one double-sided), a geothermal HVAC system with three zones, a Cummins generator, two Navien tankless water heaters, and a central vacuum system speak to the home’s performance and reliability. Lifestyle-focused features include a mosquito misting system, EV charging station, dedicated puppy spa, and a pristine two-bay garage with abundant storage. Ample outdoor space allows for the addition of a custom pool, further tailoring the property to an owner’s vision.

Cassique blends English Arts & Crafts architecture with the tidal marshes and waterways of Kiawah Island. Anchored by a Tom Watson–designed links-style golf course, the community offers The Cassique Clubhouse, dining at Voysey’s, a modern fitness and wellness center, proximity to the beach, and an active social calendar. A Kiawah Island Club Social Membership is a condition of purchase, granting access to a full suite of club amenities.

Just 30 minutes from downtown Charleston, Kiawah Island offers 10 miles of beach, 30 miles of paved trails, and unique natural experiences such as dolphin strand feeding. The location balances privacy with accessibility, appealing to buyers who value both seclusion and cultural connection.

For 47 years, Pam Harrington Exclusives has guided clients through Kiawah and Seabrook Island’s luxury coastal markets with local insight and discretion. In a market where available property on Eagle Island is measured in single digits, 79 Trailing Vine Way stands as both a refined residence and a legacy investment.
