Pairing built-for-sale convenience with built-for-you design, Marsh Walk is a showcase for both Ocean Park’s magnificent signature beauty and your own signature flare.
In conceptualizing the neighborhood, Marsh Walk’s creators knew they’d want to endow it with a welcoming walkability. They envisioned residents strolling along the marsh side ribbon park en route to an oyster roast, or a Marsh House cocktail, or a spirited play date in the community's whimsical treehouse.
Ocean Park is one of the few places on Kiawah Island where residents can enjoy picturesque views and sounds of the marsh, rivers, creeks, beach, ocean, and golf.
With exceptional views that stretch to the horizon, the homes flanking Marsh House and its infinity pool blend into a rich, park-filled setting in sight of the Atlantic. Described as “updated Southern coastal” in style, the enclave features multiple home plans, each designed by a renowned local architect exclusively for Kiawah Island Real Estate. Homebuyers can enjoy one of these distinctive, modern homes in a fraction of the time required to close on a homesite and custom-build a home independently.
Each environmentally low-impact residence connects intimately to the natural landscape and shoreline. Ground levels provide additional livable space; porches and terraces gaze out across treetops. Outdoor entertaining areas are generous. Rooms and walkways open onto expanses of the Lowcountry’s lush native flora and vast marsh views.
Acclaimed landscape architects Wertimer & Associates’ Sheila Wertimer and Cindy Cline, along with Josh Dunn, work closely with the homes’ architects throughout the creative process. As the architects design each home to harmonize with its setting, the landscape designers create natural surroundings to complement the architectural vision.
These environmentally low-impact homes abound with outdoor living spaces, rooms that open to nature, and large banks of windows framing serene views.
The stunning natural landscape greatly informs the acclaimed Marsh Walk aesthetic. The neighborhood is rich with thoughtful touches of native evergreen screening for privacy, sweeps of native flora and fauna, and pockets of color bursting with beauty across every season.
A majority of Marsh Walk’s homesites overlook marshland and the front nine holes of The Ocean Course; the rest border parkland and ponds. All enjoy coastal breezes.
Residents of Marsh Walk have the opportunity for Membership in the exclusive Kiawah Island Club –including access to The Beach Club, just a breezy bike ride away, the River Course and its clubhouse, and Cassique’s course, high-tech Golf Learning Center, and clubhouse. Dining venues, with menu concepts by James Beard Award-Winning Chefs Tom Colicchio and Mike Lata, are yet another benefit of Membership. Younger residents of the kid-friendly community thrill to the whimsical architecture and creative play found at The Treehouse. And an array of curated amenities and activities offer everyone a balance of indulgent downtime at Sasanqua Spa, spirited pursuits at the Sporting Club and Sports Pavilion, or trips into nearby Charleston.
At Marsh House, residents relax against a backdrop of spectacular natural surroundings. Its soaring rooflines and open decks serve as a gateway to the marsh, Ocean Course, and Atlantic beyond. Here, fellow Ocean Park neighbors and Club Members can enjoy conversation, food and drink, and a dip in the pool.
Escape to Kiawah Island’s eastern tip, where the Atlantic begins. Marsh Walk offers layered views across parkland, marshland, The Ocean Course, and the sea.

Please note: because identical home plans are not recommended side by side, your choice of home plans may be limited by a previous purchase of an adjacent homesite and its associated home plan selection. In the event this should be a factor in your purchase, you may want to consider naming an alternative homesite or home plan at the time of purchase. Also please note: with the exception of the home plans on homesites 338, and 450 some combination of plan adjustments, allowable tree or limb removals, and minor setback variances may be needed to allow for placement.
