Close to everything, yet a world away…

We hope you will join us in calling it home.
The Inter-coastal Waterway and Atlantic Ocean are a short boat ride away.
Tranquility on the South Newport, with extremely long marsh views, is next door to Eagle Neck, a development with a private runway.
Maura is pictured here with her children Lilly and Jed (James Edward). Maura's development company is named Lillian James in honor of her greatest accomplishments, two people beautiful inside and out who inspire Maura daily.
Maura Respess strives to create beauty in all that she does. In 1999, Maura started a home decorating and design business. She loved – still loves- creating beautiful and comfortable spaces that calm the soul and bring families together. Maura’s decorating business is called T.E.C. Interiors, which stands for Timeless, Elegant, Comfortable – because those words best describe the spaces that Maura creates.
In 2014, Maura came upon an opportunity to build upon immense natural beauty to create a truly special living space - with breathtaking views and a slower pace, yet close enough to Savannah to enjoy the amenities and culture. She was sold. Maura's father, business owner and developer, Martin Miller, advises Maura with strength of experience and financial stability.
Maura approaches development as she does home design- with a finished product vision that guides each choice. The goal is Timeless, Elegant and Comfortable - a place where families enjoy their lives and each other. Tranquility on the South Newport has beautiful experiences to offer, beautiful memories waiting to be made. That is the vision that drives this place.
Tranquility on the Newport is a magical place. We hope you will join us in calling it home.
