▾Notable features
The Residence
A true deepwater Craftsman estate on St. Helena Island: 14 Comfort Point sits on more than 1.3 acres above Wallace Creek, with a covered deepwater dock and boat lift, a waterfront saltwater pool, and sweeping marsh and river views. Built in 2012 to custom specification, the three-bedroom, three-bath residence spans 3,485 square feet across three levels, with a two-car garage. The interior is the argument for it: solid wood flooring throughout, bespoke cabinetry, custom millwork and intricate trim — warm, refined, timeless rather than trendy. Porches front and rear hold the water in view. The acreage is the privacy, and the dock is the point. Step off it and the day is boating, fishing or exploring the Lowcountry waterways from your own backyard — a rare combination among St. Helena Island waterfront homes with a private saltwater pool and deepwater access.
Highlights
The value
At this level, value rests less on square-foot comparison than on what can't be reproduced — a 1.3-acre setting in St. Helena Island. Offerings of this kind are genuinely limited, which is what sustains their position in the market.

The Setting
St. Helena Island, on Hilton Head Island, SC — about 12 miles of Atlantic beach, championship golf, marinas and dining, with direct access via Savannah/Hilton Head Airport (SAV).

Questions
14 Comfort Point is one of them — a custom Craftsman estate on 1.3+ acres with a deepwater dock on Wallace Creek. Deepwater parcels on St. Helena are a small share of the island's waterfront inventory, and Elizabeth Acuff can confirm the exact dock configuration and permitted structures.
St. Helena Island sits in unincorporated Beaufort County, so it is not governed by the Town of Hilton Head Island ordinance — which requires an annual Town permit at $150 per bedroom, a Town business license, and quarterly filings. County rules apply here instead; Elizabeth Acuff can confirm the current requirements for this parcel.
The property is marketed as true deepwater on Wallace Creek — meaning usable depth at low tide rather than tide-dependent access, which is the distinction that governs what size vessel you can keep. Elizabeth Acuff can provide the measured depth at the dock so you can match it to your boat's draft.
Considerably more. At $1,799,000 this is 1.3+ acres with a deepwater dock and saltwater pool, while Hilton Head's trailing-twelve luxury median sits near $1.36M on lots a fraction of that size. The trade is acreage and water frontage for island resort amenities.
All three. On a 2012 build the priorities are septic system condition and capacity, dock pilings and decking, and salt-air wear on exterior finishes and mechanicals. A waterfront-experienced inspector plus a separate marine survey of the dock covers it; Elizabeth Acuff can coordinate both.
Conversions of this kind are governed by Beaufort County zoning and building code, and on a septic parcel the limiting factor is usually system capacity rather than the structure itself. The permitting path starts with a County zoning check and a septic evaluation — Elizabeth Acuff can confirm what this parcel allows.
Beaufort is the closest of the three, with Hilton Head Island and Savannah/Hilton Head International both further out by road. Because drive times vary meaningfully with the bridge route and season, Elizabeth Acuff can walk you through measured times from this address.
Yes — and 14 Comfort Point sits in one, with a guard and dock among its listed features alongside its own private deepwater dock. That combination of gated entry plus a dedicated dock on the parcel is what separates it from open-access waterfront.
St. Helena gives you creek-and-sound access with far more land and dock frontage per dollar; Hilton Head gives you marina infrastructure and resort amenities at a higher price per acre. For a boat owner who wants depth at a private dock and acreage around it, St. Helena is the stronger base.
14 Comfort Point is offered at $1,799,000 for 3,485 square feet on over 1.3 acres, with a waterfront saltwater pool and true deepwater dock on Wallace Creek. That pairing — acreage, deepwater and a pool on one parcel — is a narrow slice of the island's inventory.
Yes — 3,485 square feet of custom Craftsman construction on 1.3+ acres with a deepwater dock and saltwater pool prices well against the broader Lowcountry luxury tier, where the trailing-twelve median is $1.36M on materially smaller waterfront parcels. Elizabeth Acuff can share the comparable sales behind that.
The home spans 3,485 square feet across three levels with three full baths, so the square footage is weighted toward generous rooms and flexible space rather than a bedroom count. The ground level includes a workshop with a closet and full bath — worth walking with Elizabeth Acuff to see how it suits your use.
St. Helena Island falls under unincorporated Beaufort County rather than the Town of Hilton Head Island's short-term rental ordinance, so the applicable rules are County-level plus any community covenants at this gated address. Elizabeth Acuff can confirm exactly what this parcel permits before you write an offer.
Septic capacity is set by the permitted system size and the parcel's soil, and it is the practical ceiling on any added bedrooms or living quarters. On 1.3+ acres there is room to work with, but the honest answer comes from a County septic record pull and evaluation — Elizabeth Acuff can order both during due diligence.
