INVESTOR'S DREAM! Turn-key, move-in ready, completely renovated, ''better than new'' brick ranch on beautiful wooded lot with a very strong rental history in the absolute ''sweet spot'' location on James Island. By a ''sweet spot'' location we mean that, where this home is situated provides fast and easy access to both Folly Beach as well as to the charm, shopping and dining experiences of historic downtown Charleston. This home would make a great rental, which it has for years, as well as a perfect family home. From the family standpoint, the new Stiles Point Elementary School is only 2 minutes away. And, by ''better than new'', we mean that all of the features of this home are like new but the home has none of the drawbacks of one that is brand-new like the noise ofsurrounding construction or immature landscaping. By contrast, this beautiful home is in a quiet setting with a serene, privacy-fenced oasis for a back yard that has mature, lush landscaping. The luxuriant aesthetics of the lot are complemented by a light, bright and airy interior featuring a chef's kitchen that houses sleek black appliances in stunning contrast to white cabinetry that is offset by more than ample ''faux-granite'' counters that culminate in a breakfast bar. The adjoining eat-in area of the kitchen flows effortlessly to a family room that leads into a bright, airy sunroom whose vaulted ceilings lead the eye to a bank of windows that make one feel at one with the enchanted hideaway of a back yard. The bedrooms are spacious and the bathrooms modernized as well. In addition to quaintness and coziness, the home quietly possesses seemingly endless storage space between the spacious one-car garage and the stand-alone out-building in back. In the front of the home the ability to be ''at one with nature'' is further enhanced by the lazy southern, covered front porch perfect for quiet reflection while soothing southern breezes whisper to you on a summer evening. Yes, this can all be yours for a terrific value. Claim your stake on a life lived without limits before this opportunity, the very BEST BARGAIN on James Island, slips away.
GOOD VALUE IN COMFORTABLE BRICK JAMES ISLAND HOUSE WITH GARAGE AND NICE WOODED GROUNDS. LARGE SUN ROOM FOR GUEST/ OFFICE. NEW HVAC AND TILE BATHS. CONVENIENT TO GOOD SHOPPING, MUSC, DOWNTOWN, AND FOLLY BEACH. EASY TO SHOW. CONTRACT CONTINGENT ON FINANCING & INSPECTIONS.
