Overview
Rare opportunity to own a true deepwater property less than 9 miles from Downtown Charleston for under $1M! Situated on 0.84 acres along Penny`s Creek, 1269 River Road offers an incredibly hard-to-find combination of deepwater access, updated construction, and future expansion potential. 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.
