About Belfair Lots
Belfair represents the pinnacle of private golf community living in Bluffton, South Carolina. Built on a historic 1811 plantation spanning 1,100 acres along the Colleton River, Belfair offers discerning buyers the opportunity to build a custom home in one of the Lowcountry's most exclusive settings. The community has earned Platinum Club of America designation, placing it among the top four percent of private clubs in the United States.
The dramatic Avenue of Oaks entrance—a half-mile stretch lined with century-old, moss-draped live oaks—sets the tone for what awaits inside. Scenic marsh views of the Colleton River, 42 acres of freshwater lakes, and meticulously maintained landscapes create an environment where natural beauty and refined amenities coexist seamlessly.
Homesite Options
Belfair lots range from approximately $50,000 for interior wooded homesites to $265,000+ for premium golf course and lagoon-view properties. Lot sizes typically range from 0.28 to 0.56 acres, with select estate-sized parcels exceeding one acre available for buyers seeking additional privacy. View categories include golf course frontage on either the East or West Course, lagoon and pond views, marsh and river vistas overlooking the Colleton River, and peaceful wooded settings.
The community's 730 planned homesites are positioned throughout the property to maximize privacy and views while maintaining the natural character of the land. Many lots back to protected wetlands, ensuring permanent natural buffers and wildlife corridors.
World-Class Golf
Belfair's two Tom Fazio-designed championship courses offer distinct playing experiences. The East Course features links-style design with natural sand areas, native grasses, and open fairways complemented by deepwater views. The West Course delivers traditional parkland golf framed by majestic oaks and soaring pines, with gentle elevation changes and multiple tee boxes accommodating all skill levels.
The 29-acre Jim Ferree Golf Learning Center ranks among the Top 50 Practice Ranges nationwide, featuring covered practice bays, an indoor driving suite, Scotty Cameron Putter Gallery, and Titleist Advanced Fitting site. The Short Game Complex includes replicas of holes from both courses for targeted practice.
