Securing one of the highest-value residential listings ever brought to market in our county is more than a milestone for our team; it’s a reflection of the trust we’ve built, the relationships we’ve nurtured, and the standard of excellence we hold ourselves to every single day. As the luxury market continues to evolve, today’s sellers expect more than traditional real estate representation. They want strategy. They want local expertise. They want a team who understands how to position a one-of-a-kind property for a discerning audience.
We are honored to represent the seller of 393 Old Palmetto Bluff Road, a landmark property that reflects both the rising desirability of the Lowcountry and the elevated prices the market has supported since 2020. The opportunity speaks to three core reasons high-end sellers continue to choose The Ussery Group for their most significant properties.
Rooted Reputation in the Palmetto Bluff Luxury Market
For more than two decades, our team has been integrated in this region, both as realtors and as residents. We’ve earned the trust of long-time residents, newcomers seeking the Palmetto Bluff lifestyle, and buyers from across the country who are drawn to the charm of this community. Luxury in the Lowcountry isn’t just about price: it’s about perspective, history, and an understanding of the lifestyle that draws people in from across the country.
This is especially true in the post-COVID era. As remote work expanded and individuals sought privacy, natural beauty, and meaningful community, the Lowcountry experienced a surge of demand that fundamentally reshaped the luxury market. Our track record in high-value sales reflects this. In 2023, we represented the sale of 210 Stallings Island Street, the first home in Palmetto Bluff to surpass the $10 million threshold. The property, featuring standout finishes and panoramic May River views, went under contract just two days after being listed and ultimately closed at the highest sales price in Palmetto Bluff history at that time.
That record broke yet another milestone set by our team: 158 Stallings Island Street, which closed at $925,000 above asking after being listed for just one day and receiving multiple offers.
These transactions are not accidents. They are the result of strategic positioning, years of relationship-building, and a deep understanding of what buyers in this segment value most.
White-Glove, Concierge-Level Service
Luxury real estate requires curation, intention, and careful strategy. From the moment we begin preparing a property for market, our team handles the process with a concierge approach, from coordinating with staging partners to providing on-the-ground support for out-of-area owners to tailoring a marketing strategy that involves high-end videography and photography. Our goal is seamless communication at every stage, and our clients appreciate knowing that their home is being treated with the same care and attention to detail that they have poured into it themselves.
Integrity, Relationships, and Local Knowledge
In luxury markets like Palmetto Bluff, numbers alone cannot tell a property’s full story. Lifestyle is the true differentiator, and communicating that lifestyle authentically requires lived experience. Because we live here, work here, and raise our families here, we can speak to the nuances that matter. We understand how the neighborhoods differ. We understand buyer expectations. We understand what resonates emotionally with people drawn to the Lowcountry.
Many of our listings come to us through referrals: sellers who value integrity, professionalism, and a relationship-first approach. We understand that clients want to be represented by a team they trust completely. That trust is something we never take lightly.
