The five highest-priced home sales reported in Beaufort & Sea Islands Area, South Carolina for the week ending November 8, 2026 added up to $5.31 million.

No. 1 — $1,789,000 · 10 Brighton Trace, Beaufort, South Carolina
The week’s highest-priced sale was a home in Habersham, a Beaufort community, that its builder put up in 2021 as a personal residence. It has views of the marsh and the Broad River, and the primary suite, on the upper level, takes in the river.
Inside, the finishes lean on natural materials: red oak accents on the ceilings, window sills cut from live oak, and brick floors. The kitchen centers on a quartz island with a waterfall edge, and it has a gas cooktop, a wall oven with French doors, a warming drawer and a nugget ice maker. There is a linear gas fireplace and a screened porch, and the builder added practical touches such as a dog-washing station in the utility room, a fenced yard at the back and a Cummins generator that serves the whole home.
The home has four bedrooms, three full baths and a half bath, and 3,069 square feet of living space on a 0.26-acre lot. Habersham residents share a pool, a dock and a boat ramp. The property last sold in 2020 for $233,000, before the current home was built.
