The property features a private dock with floater and 6,000lb boat lift, providing approximately 6ft of water at low tide for easy access to Charleston's waterways. The charming cottage was completely renovated down to the studs by the current owner, blending modern systems and finishes with timeless Lowcountry character. Inside, you'll find stunning maple hardwood floors throughout, an open-concept floorplan, quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and abundant natural light......Major upgrades include all new electrical, plumbing, HVAC, Anderson high-impact windows, spray foam insulation, and a generator transfer switch for added peace of mind. A standing seam metal roof and crushed oyster shell driveway complete the home's coastal aesthetic. One of the home's standout features is the expansive screened porch overlooking the water -- the perfect setting for entertaining, relaxing, or enjoying sunset views over Penny's Creek. For buyers seeking even more potential, fully engineered plans convey for a future main house just under 3,000 square feet featuring 3 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, an office, and approximately 870 square feet of porches. Whether enjoyed as a turnkey waterfront retreat, primary residence, or future estate site, opportunities like this are exceptionally rare in the Charleston market.
