CAR VILLAGE was envisioned as a private community where collectors could keep prized automobiles in climate-controlled car condos while enjoying exclusive amenities and the company of fellow enthusiasts.
The original proposal called for 31 luxury car condos on a five-acre property in Bluffton, South Carolina. Designed for collectors who see their vehicles as both a passion and an investment, the concept combines customizable garage spaces with a private social club.
October 2026 Development Update: According to CarVillage USA’s official website, the developers have moved away from their original five-acre development site in Bluffton, South Carolina, following construction and infrastructure challenges. Although the project had progressed through planning approvals and preliminary site work, additional stormwater requirements, utility complications, and rising construction costs led the developers to accept an offer for the property. The developers remain committed to the CarVillage concept and intend to pursue a new location for their luxury car condo community. A new site and construction timeline have not yet been publicly confirmed. Read the developers’ full account >>>
Opening and Vision
CarVillage USA’s original plan offered fully customizable garage condos starting at approximately 1,680 square feet, with room for up to six cars and larger configurations for collectors needing additional space.
The proposed private club also envisioned membership limited to 250 people, creating opportunities for collectors to connect through shared interests and social events. These figures describe the earlier proposal and should not be assumed to represent the final design at a future site.

While the original Bluffton plan is no longer moving forward at that location, the developers continue to promote the broader vision of a private automotive community.

Founder, Owner, and Developer
The original CAR VILLAGE proposal was represented by SKYHB-1 INVESTMENT LLC, with Yvonne Hermina-Biebel listed as the primary contact.
Readers interested in the project’s current leadership, proposed location, or ownership opportunities should contact the development team directly for the latest information.
Racetrack and Motorsport Features
The original CarVillage proposal did not include an on-site racetrack or dedicated racing circuit. Its emphasis was on private automotive storage, social gatherings, and the collector-car lifestyle rather than track-based motorsports.
The Bluffton site was originally promoted for its proximity to Hilton Head Island and Savannah, as well as the scenic roads of the Lowcountry. Any location-specific benefits will need to be reassessed once a new development site is announced.
Clubhouse and Social Scene
The planned social centerpiece of CAR VILLAGE was an expansive clubhouse designed for relaxation and entertainment. Proposed amenities included a full bar, pool hall, F1 simulator room, private offices, conference rooms, cigar lounge, and a kitchen for catered events.
Amenities proposed for the original CarVillage concept included:
- A clubhouse designed for relaxation and entertainment
- A full bar and pool hall for social gatherings
- An F1 simulator room for immersive driving experiences
- Private offices and conference rooms for business or club meetings
- A cigar lounge for fellow enthusiasts
- A kitchen equipped for catering and private functions
The developers also envisioned weekend cars-and-coffee gatherings, private bottle storage, and detailing services. These were proposed features, not amenities confirmed to be operating.
The original site was located near South Carolina Highway 170, with access to U.S. Route 278, Interstate 95, Hilton Head Island, and Savannah. Because the development team has moved away from that property, the earlier travel-time estimates should no longer be treated as directions to an active facility.
Units and Ownership
The original CAR VILLAGE plan included 31 customizable luxury garage villas, starting at approximately 1,680 square feet and designed to accommodate up to six vehicles, with larger layouts proposed.
The concept paired private garage ownership with an exclusive automotive social community. Prospective buyers should confirm the specifications, ownership terms, and availability of any future development directly with CarVillage USA.
