A Rare Waterfront on Bowens Island. Minutes to Folly Beach .Nestled beneath a canopy majestic oaks on historic Bowens Island, this extraordinary custom waterfront residence overlooks miles of protected tidal marsh, where winding creeks, native wildlife, and endless western skies create one of the most breathtaking settings in the Charleston area.

Priced below appraisalevery detail reflects exceptional craftsmanship. Reclaimed heart pine floors bring warmth and authenticity throughout the home, while handcrafted Plain & Fancy cabinetry, extensive custom millwork, and carefully selected finishes create interiors of understated elegance. Walls of glass frame panoramic marsh and tidal creek views from nearly every room, ensuring the beauty of the landscape is always within sight. At the heart of the home, the chef's kitchen is a true showpiece.

Beyond the interiors lies the lifestyle that makes Bowens Island legendary. A beautifully landscaped lawn leads to your private dock on the tidal creek, where mornings begin with coffee overlooking the water and afternoons are spent kayaking through winding creeks, paddleboarding with dolphins in the distance, fishing from the dock, or pulling fresh blue crabs from the creek for an evening feast. The screened oyster room offers the perfect gathering place for unforgettable Lowcountry oyster roasts, where friends and family linger long after sunset beneath the glow of marsh skies. An oversized three-plus-car garage provides exceptional storage for vehicles, golf carts, paddleboards, kayaks, and all the essentials for enjoying Charleston's coastal lifestyle.
