Situated in the heart of Bluffton, South Carolina, Palmetto Bluff is more than just a community—it’s a place of magic and wonder. For Martin Roache, a dedicated sales agent with the Palmetto Bluff Real Estate Company, this enchanting locale has been the backdrop to some of his most cherished memories. Martin’s story is a testament to the allure of Palmetto Bluff and the commitment of its real estate team to creating a haven for residents.
In this edition of Behind the Bluff, let’s explore how Martin’s journey led him to the Bluff and what he has planned for the future.
Martin’s path to Palmetto Bluff began over a decade ago when he was working on a large-scale project in the Caribbean involving marinas, hotels, and residences. In 2012, he crossed paths with the team behind Palmetto Bluff while assisting with acquisitions for high-net-worth clients. By 2018, Martin and his family were ready to return to the U.S., and the opportunity to join Palmetto Bluff’s real estate team felt like the perfect fit. “It’s one of the most beautiful and thoughtfully designed communities I’ve ever seen,” he shares.
According to Martin, the Palmetto Bluff real estate team is the best he’s ever worked with. “It’s a group of incredibly thoughtful and talented individuals who genuinely care about the community and its residents,” he says. Beyond their shared skills, the team has a lot of fun together, embodying a pioneering spirit that makes the work both fulfilling and enjoyable.
For Martin, Palmetto Bluff is more than a collection of homes—it’s a lifestyle. He describes the community as a place of unmatched natural beauty and architectural charm, complemented by world-class amenities and a welcoming atmosphere. “The people here are what set Palmetto Bluff apart,” Martin notes. “There’s a sense of connection and camaraderie among like-minded individuals who see the potential and beauty in this special place.”
Whether introducing families to the community or guiding them through buying or selling a home, Martin finds immense satisfaction in helping people achieve their goals. “You want to give people what they want,” he says. His approach is rooted in thoughtful advice and a commitment to ensuring every client feels confident in their decisions.
As an avid golfer and former professional player, Martin is particularly thrilled about Palmetto Bluff’s upcoming golf course in Anson. Designed by some of the world’s finest golf course architects, Coore & Crenshaw, the project promises to elevate the community’s already stellar offerings. In the shorter term, Martin is excited about the expansion of amenities around Moreland Forest and the reversible 9-hole golf course, Crossroads, which he believes will further enrich the Palmetto Bluff experience.
For Martin, the people are at the heart of his favorite Palmetto Bluff memories. From clients who’ve become like family to colleagues who inspire him, the relationships make his work truly rewarding. When asked about his favorite local spots, Martin recommends the food trucks at Crossroads for its great barbecue and inviting outdoor atmosphere, complete with fire pits and plenty of space to mingle.
Outside of work, Martin enjoys fishing, reading, traveling, and spending time with his wife, Kimberly, and their two children, Noah and Ramsi. His well-rounded approach to life and work is evident in everything he does, making him a trusted guide for anyone looking to call Palmetto Bluff home.
Martin’s journey is a testament to Palmetto Bluff’s authenticity and uniqueness. As a sales agent, his commitment to preserving the experience of the Lowcountry while sharing the Bluff’s blend of a modern lifestyle within a timeless community shines through. If you’re seeking more than just a home, but a true sense of place, let Martin be your guide on your Palmetto Bluff journey. Your piece of the Lowcountry awaits, where authenticity meets unparalleled living.
