1155 Fort Lamar Rd, Charleston, SC 29412

Some of the absolute best 180 degree waterfront views in Charleston County. On the ocean side of James Island, your views stretch across Clark Sound from the Morris Island, to Long Island, all the way to the shrimp boats at Crosby's Seafood. At night you see few lights, and can faintly hear the surf crashing on Morris Island. You are 15-20 minutes from Downtown Charleston by car or boat. This grand lowcountry home lies at the end of the paved road in the Village of Secessionville. Books have been written about this sea island summer retreat settled in 1842 and its famous role in the defense of Charleston in 1862. The Village of Secessionville is on the National Historic Register, and this home is walking distance to the preserved earthworks of Ft. Lamar. It was also the site of a troop encampment. The home is situated on 1.8 acres and was designed to catch the prevailing southeasterly breeze. The interior has gracious proportions, lots of light, an elevator, master on the first floor, large kitchen with granite countertops, Dacor gas stove and oven and GE Monogram refrigerator. There is a saline pool. A short dock with several feet of water at low tide and covered boatlift. This sturdy elevated custom house was built in 2000 to modern standards with a low maintenance Hardiplank exterior, a copper roof and wide porches. Come see this property if Kiawah, Wadmalaw, Rockville, and McClellanville are too far from town for you. There is a Home Owner's Association, but it owns no common property and assessments for the last 8 years are under $200. Total.
