Featured Floor Plan: The Edisto

The Edisto by Ernest Homes — a 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath design combining timeless style, flexibility, and energy efficiency for modern Lowcountry living.

For homebuyers who appreciate a down-to-earth lifestyle with just the right amount of individuality, The Edisto is a perfect match. Designed for comfort, efficiency, and timeless appeal, this two-story home by Ernest Homes is all about practical living with a personal touch.

With 2,145 square feet, 4 bedrooms, and 2.5 bathrooms, The Edisto features clean architectural lines and a smart, uncluttered layout that’s ideal for families who value function, flexibility, and room to grow.

Welcoming and Versatile Living Spaces

Step inside to a bright foyer with a conveniently located powder room — perfect for guests or a quick stop before heading out. The heart of the home is the spacious great room, which can be enhanced with a cozy gas fireplace for warmth and style.

A pass-through connects the great room to the kitchen, where you can add thoughtful options like a prep island, glass-front cabinets, or a wine rack. The cheerful breakfast room invites natural light and flows out to a rear patio — ideal for grilling or relaxing outdoors.

For more year-round comfort, homeowners can upgrade to a covered porch for shade and shelter, creating a welcoming space to unwind and entertain.

A Private and Thoughtful Second Floor

Upstairs, The Edisto offers four spacious bedrooms, including a luxurious owner’s suite. You can elevate your private ensuite with an optional garden tub, a stand-up shower, and dual vanities — must-haves for homeowners who love both comfort and elegance.

A centrally located laundry room makes chores more convenient for everyone, with the option to add upper cabinets for extra organization.

Smart and Energy-Efficient Design

Like every Ernest home, The Edisto is built with long-term comfort and savings in mind. Each home is energy tested and rated, featuring smart, efficient details that help reduce your environmental impact and monthly utility costs.

Key features include LED lighting, spray foam insulation, and a TRANE® HVAC unit. Every Edisto is also smart home ready with the TRANE® Nexia Wi-Fi–enabled thermostat, putting climate control right at your fingertips.

Your Personal Touch

The Edisto isn’t just a house — it’s a home that adapts to your needs and reflects your unique style. Choose from optional brick accents, an oval window, or a carriage-style garage door for added charm. You can even customize second-floor window layouts for your ideal lighting and privacy preferences.

These flexible options are a hallmark of Ernest Homes’ commitment to building with care, craftsmanship, and heart.
