About this property

Pinckney Home Place - Your Waterfront Home Away from Home

On the Beaufort River, 6 minutes from downtown and 20 minutes from Parris Island! This family home, designed and built in 1955, has been lovingly restored to its original 1950’s charm. With 4 bedrooms (1 queen, 1 full, 4 twins), 2-1/2 baths, (1 with walk in shower) it sleeps 8 or more comfortably. Located in quiet Pigeon Point, it offers a large living room, intimate dining room, and cozy den. Spacious kitchen with reclaimed wood floors features an electric range, dishwasher, microwave, and two refrigerators. Washer and dryer in laundry room just off kitchen. A large screened porch offers water views or stroll down the 200 foot dock to a roofed gazebo on the creek, and a large floating dock encourages swimming during warm weather months. Any time of year you may catch a glimpse of herons, egrets, or marsh hens. Or for that matter another type of "bird": F/A18s or F35Bs from nearby Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort. Expect some occasional jet noise, but enjoy the show! Gorgeous sunsets!

Perfect vacation
We stayed in Beaufort for its location and history. The Pinckney house was amazing!! It was like spending time in a different era that was all charm and beauty. The house is much more spacious than the pictures show.Everything was comfortable and accommodating. We loved it!!

Amazing location
Roomy home in quiet neighborhood with 2 close parks, amazing water views, close to downtown Beaufort and Port Royal. Lots of birding opportunities on the dock as well as at the Cypress Wetlands and Hunting Island. We especially enjoyed the Pat Conroy literary Center as well. Owners very attentive and responsive to our questions.

Incredible views and convenient location to explore Beaufort area
The location on the water and across from the marine air base is amazing. Kitchen is reasonably equipped. The home was built in 1955 and most furniture is reflective of the era. Much of the furniture is beyond its prime. The piano is beautiful but un-playable due to it being out of tune and broken keys. The booking process and project management were excellent.

Wonderful property and hospitality. We needed a home for our husband and furbaby to escape Helene. The property manager couldn’t have been more helpful and kind. Loved the period decor and the beautiful sunsets. Wish we could’ve stayed longer.

Peaceful, Unexpected Pleasure
Definitely old-school but a lovely comfortable spot for adults who appreciate serenity and the ability to spread out in this sprawling Pigeons Point escape. Close to downtown Beaufort but off the beaten path where deep pleasurable breaths outweigh resigned sighs and rolled eyes.

Beaufort pet friendly Retreat!
Pinkney Home Place is a very restful and comfortable house right on the river and marshlands. The home is full of wonderful family memories/history and in a quiet neighborhood! It has lots of room and is very close to the beautiful downtown Beaufort. The sunroom looks out on the river and marshland where you can enjoy your morning coffee and gorgeous sunsets over the water! Your stay even includes the use of their private fishing dock! We couldn't have asked for a more relaxing vacation!!!

We have stayed here many times before. It is a great property for comfort, peace and quiet, awesome view of the Intercoastal out back, the Beaufort River. And the air shows from across the river are a bonus. We never get tired of seeing the military jets fly from the training base. Such a great place to stay! Highly recommended!

That this property is a true find! If you love to fish or crab or sit out on a dock or under a gazebo this place is for you. The house is very large and full of character. The kitchen is probably the best stocked of any place we have stayed!

Beautiful setting, house is old but in good shape with lots of 1950's - 1960's vibes. Five old friends gathered for an annual trip of golf and other indulgences. Everyone of us recommended renting the same place next year.

Wonderful!
What a fabulous property. It was absolutely beautiful and we found it to be exactly as listed. I wish the walls could talk to speak of the fun and history that this home has to offer. It was very clean and the bed in the master bedroom (we only used that bedroom) was incredibly comfortable. The dock was amazing and the lighting on it was wonderful and made for a few great evenings sitting out with a glass of wine. The location is great and no more than 10 minutes away from grocery and shopping in one direction, and the historic waterfront park in the other. We would definitely stay here again!

Great great place and we are looking to book again
Loved this place so much. And the pictures don’t do it justice. We didn’t think the place had a tv bc there is no picture of one but there is a den with a tv not shown in their photos. The view is outstanding! The dock is awesome! The neighborhood is awesome! And super great proximity to everything! We are currently planning our next trip back now.

Beaufort tranquility
We thoroughly enjoyed our month in Beaufort at this home full of family memories! We arrived to a spotless well equipped home, in a quiet peaceful and friendly neighborhood. Location was perfect for exploring the local area, and a large dock was available for watching the tides, crabbing or fishing. Mike next door was available for any questions and local recommendations. This is a very special place and we watched many sunsets with gratitude.

The owners are brother and sister, who grew up in this house. Built by our father, we (along with our spouses) have recently upgraded it while trying to keep much of the family home charm that it has always had. It is a special place to us, and we hope it will be to you, too!
