The five highest-priced home sales reported in Beaufort & Sea Islands Area, South Carolina for the week ending October 25, 2026, came to a combined $3.77 million. Every one of them was a single-family home in Beaufort County.
The group ranges from a compact home on deep water to a newly built five-bedroom home, with a 1980s home on nearly an acre of live oaks, a home in a gated creekside neighborhood and a home overlooking a golf course in between.
No. 1 — $855,000 · 119 Chowan Creek Bluff, Beaufort, South Carolina
The week’s top sale was also the smallest home of the five. The two-bedroom home at 119 Chowan Creek Bluff in Beaufort sold for $855,000. Built in 1992, it has 1,118 square feet, two bathrooms and a one-car garage, and it changed hands fully furnished.
Water is the point of the place. The property is on deep water and has its own short dock, and the home looks out over the marsh and the creek. A screened porch runs across the back of the home, and there is also a front porch, a patio and an outdoor shower. Inside, the primary bedroom is on the main level, a gas fireplace warms the living space, and the floors are wood, tile and luxury vinyl plank. The wood-sided home has no homeowners association, and it is near historic downtown Beaufort and Hunting Island State Park. The property last sold for $335,000 in 2015.
The home went under contract three days after it was listed and sold at its full asking price. Julie Potts of BHHS Bay Street Realty Group (Beaufort) was the listing agent. The brokerage also listed the No. 2 sale, so its listings took the top two places in this week’s ranking.
