...is what makes the announcement Sea Pines so exciting. "It will be a gated community with great attention being paid to the natural landscape and amentities for the community's residents. Palmetto Homes develops 'lifestyle communities' in highly desirable locations. Sea Pines is amenity oriented. The two of the top draws are the location to the beach and the conservation area that virtually surrounds the property. Nature has dealt Sea Pines a good hand. With the natural elevation of the property, there has been minimal disturbance to the nautral vegetation. This gives Sea Pines an established mature look from the very beginning. Nature's amenities, including close proximity to the beach have been incorporated with the man-made amenities of community park, recreation area, pool and playground. All of these amenities are accessible by an elevated boardwalk, as well as lighted streets and sidewalks found throughout the community."
