Welcome to a rare James Island gem- a 1 acre property with room to breathe, room to grow, and room to bring the whole crew! Located in one of the island's oldest and most rural areas, this 0.97-acre homesite delivers the kind of space that's getting harder and harder to… Read More find, while still keeping you just 3.5 miles from Folly Beach and the Edge of America! Even better, this home is in the Charleston County tax district (not Folly Beach or Town of JI), so you have a LEGITIMATE opportunity to own and operate a proven short-term rental right on site.The main home features 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths, overflowing with full natural light and an easy, inviting flow. The living and dining rooms are overlooked by the updated, window-lined kitchen, where the current owner has added newbutcher block countertops, modern white appliances, a stainless vent hood with shiplap accents, and freshly painted cabinets. A brand-new sliding door next to the gas log fireplace opens onto a huge deck, perfect for multiple outdoor living zones, or even a full outdoor kitchen. From there, you step down to a lower deck wrapped around a large, private pool with sun shades and all the Lowcountry relaxation you can handle! Back inside, you'll find the primary suite located on the main level, fresh with new flooring, paint, and a fully updated bath, featuring a tiled shower and new vanity. The renovated hall bath is just as stylish, located across from the second bedroom on the main level, with a new tub and tile surround, updated lighting, and modern fixtures. You'll also appreciate the convenient laundry area and the recently refinished heart-pine floors that tie the main level together. Major systems? Roof and HVAC are newer, and the lower-level stucco exterior was just freshly painted. And then there's the bonus living space: a separate 775-sq-ft in-law suite/STR on the first floor which is attached but not included in the home's square footage. Complete with its own full kitchen, full bath, queen bed, and two sets of bunk beds, it's ready for extended family, guests, or income, whatever fits your lifestyle best! The oversized concrete pad at the end of the gravel drive leads into the 540-sq-ft, two-car garage with 10'+ ceilings, ideal for storage, car lifts, surfboards, tools, and more! Love boating or have big toys? This property checks that box too. There's plenty of room to park boats, RVs, trailers, or anything else you want to stash. Even better, a small community boat landing is just a block away at Battalion and Tower Battery, accessible for a minimal annual fee. Outer Banks fan? John B's house is just down the road and several scenes were shot in this driveway! Also down the road is the Fort Lamar Historic Preserve and walking trails. Big lot, big potential, and an unbeatable James Island location with quick beach access, privacy, and flexibility, all in one. This is the one you've been waiting for! Read Less
