Overview

Description

Lakefront on James Island, under 4 miles from downtown. Yes, really. Some houses have a nice yard. This one has a front-row seat on Lake Frances. The ospreys, egrets, and blue herons that work this water are the best fishing report you’ll ever get — they’re here because the lake is loaded, and on sunny evenings the mullet leap clear out of the water like they’re putting on a show. You’ll watch all of it from your own private dock, coffee in hand. The lake is brackish, fed by Charleston Harbor. When the evening’s right, drop in a boat with an electric motor and take a sunset cruise toward the harbor. Lake access runs $50 a year. That’s not a typo. Here’s what sets this one apart: the water view isn’t reserved for one room.

Supplements: The primary suite has it. So does the primary bath, from a clawfoot tub. So do the family room and the dining room. You live with this lake, not just next to it. The main floor does the heavy lifting. A vaulted family room opens through sliding glass doors to the deck and the water beyond, with a separate formal living room the previous owners use
