The high end real estate market on Hilton Head Island, specifically direct oceanfront homes, posts a healthy mark so far in 2007. Year-to-date there are 16 oceanfront homes either under contract or already closed. Total sales volume from oceanfront home sales only is just under $73 million! Average sales price is $4.5 million.

The area on Hilton Head Island seeing the most transactions for oceanfront homes is Sea Pines Resort. Located on the south end of the island, Sea Pines is home to the famous Harbourtown Lighthouse and Village, South Beach Village, and the MCI Heritage Golf Classic.
Sea Pines Resort tallied 9 sales, Forest Beach has had 5 sales and one sale each in Port Royal Plantation and Palmetto Dunes Resort.

Part of the reason for the strong oceanfront market is the current selection. There is so much to choose from that buyers are taking advantage and getting exactly what they want, at a price that they really like.
