South Street Partners has announced its purchase of Palmetto Bluff in a joint venture with real estate manager Henderson Park the largest transaction in SC history.

South Street is the largest master-planned community developer in the Southeast. The company now owns 3 major SC communities — Palmetto Bluff and The Cliffs — and is the owner of the residential development of Kiawah Island, which includes Kiawah Island Real Estate and Kiawah Island Club.

Housing demand in these communities has skyrocketed since the pandemic — both The Cliffs + Kiawah Island experienced record-breaking home sales in 2020 and a record number of new homes have broken ground.
