A rare piece of Riverland Terrace history sits on this half-acre corner lot -- believed to be one of the very first homes built in the neighborhood, dating back to 1930. This Spanish Eclectic-style residence was constructed with old-world solid stucco walls, a building method rarely seen today, prized for how well it has resisted time and the elements and held up over nearly a century.For those who appreciate the history, the architectural details are worth noting: deeply arched windows and doorways framed in hand-troweled stucco, a low-pitched roofline, and a symmetrical, old-world facade capped by a prominent chimney. Step through the arched entry hood into a soaring, beamed living space with wrought-iron railings, rich hardwood floors, and an open loft overlook -- the kind ofarchitectural character and craftsmanship that simply isn`t built anymore. The home offers 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths across 1,916 square feet of main living space, plus a 226-square-foot third-floor flex area, for 2,142 total square feet. Outside, mature landscaping shades the corner lot, and a detached garage adds valuable storage and workshop space, while the back deck offers a private spot to enjoy the yard. The half-acre corner lot itself is the other half of this opportunity. It`s a rare amount of land to find this close to the water and downtown, and it`s yours to use as you see fit with no HOA in place. Restore and preserve one of Riverland Terrace`s original homes, or start fresh and build new -- either way, a lot this size, in this location, is genuinely hard to find. Riverland Terrace is one of James Island`s most sought-after neighborhoods, offering water access with a neighborhood boat ramp, and you`re just minutes from the Terrace Theatre, local shops and restaurants, and the Charleston Municipal Golf Course. You`re also just minutes from downtown Charleston and about fifteen minutes to the beach -- a rare combination of in-town convenience and coastal access. Homes with this kind of history, land, and location rarely come available. Come see the potential for yourself.
