Behind the Design: Inside an Overlook

Written by Palmetto Bluff

Quintessentially Southern, the Overlook features generous two-story porches with lake and park views that exemplify casual summer living and chic yet relaxed design.

The Overlook’s flexible home plan wraps around a rear courtyard perfect for a private retreat and entertaining space. Inside, oversized windows provide ample natural light and a spacious open-concept floor plan captures the essence of elegant Southern architecture.

About the Builder Guild Home Collection

The Builder Guild Home Collection at Palmetto Bluff is the result of studying the hundreds of homes that have been built in the years of placemaking at Palmetto Bluff. We interviewed dozens of architects and craftsmen who are behind the designs and artistry of these homes, and we learned from the collective experiences of those who have lived in them. Ultimately, our goal was to curate the best of what Palmetto Bluff has to offer to further enhance the legacy of living well for generations to come.
