Supplements
Upstairs, a spacious bonus room is ready to be transformed into whatever you need, playroom, home office, gym, or media room. You'll also find a walk-in attic space perfect for storing holiday decorations or seasonal items.
The back deck spans the full length of the home. Overlooking the fully fenced backyard and a tidal creek, this outdoor space has plenty of room for a pool or custom entertaining area. Under the home, there's a workshop and additional storage, while the extra-wide parking pad easily fits boats, trailers, or multiple vehicles. With no HOA, you'll have the freedom to truly enjoy your property.
All of this in a prime location, minutes from Johns Island, West Ashley, and Downtown Charleston, with a public boat landing less than 3 miles away for easy access to the water.
You won't find another home like this, on a tidal creek, with just under half an acre, and at this price point. For buyers ready to roll up their sleeves, it's a rare opportunity to create something truly special in the heart of the Lowcountry.
