Initial planning for the Ocean Isle Palms community began in the early 2000’s. The plans were ambitious back then but the project never fully materialized largely in part due to the financial crisis back in 2008. In 2014, the property was eventually acquired by Drapac Capital Partners, an Australian real estate development company. The firm hopes to make Ocean Isle Palms its flagship development in the region.
The master planned community of Ocean Isle Palms was subsequently approved in December of 2017.
The Ocean Isle Palms permitted uses that were approved included the following:
