Rare .56-acre lakefront homesite beneath majestic live oaks, welcome to one of James Island's hidden gems. Set on a picturesque .56-acre lakefront homesite in the highly sought-after Eastwood community, this property offers an exceptional opportunity to own one of Charleston's most desirable settings. This 5 bedroom 4 bathroom home has incredible views of the lake, with towering live oaks, mature magnolias, and stunning established landscaping that frame the property, while a stately circular driveway welcomes you home. Built in 1967 and lovingly maintained by one family for over five decades, this residence is ready for its next chapter. Whether your vision includes restoring its timeless character, creating a spectacular renovation, or designing a custom Lowcountry estate,the possibilities are endless. Wake each morning to peaceful lake views and enjoy the incredible wildlife that surrounds you. Blue herons, white egrets, osprey, wood ducks, hawks, wood storks, and even playful otters are frequent visitors, creating a tranquil backdrop that feels worlds away while remaining just minutes from everything Charleston has to offer. The property and location is second to none. Sunrise Park is only a short stroll away, offering breathtaking panoramic views of Downtown Charleston, Mount Pleasant, and Sullivan's Island. The James Island Yacht Club, May Forest State Park, excellent schools, popular restaurants, coffee shops, grocery stores, and everyday conveniences are all nearby. Historic Downtown Charleston is less than ten minutes away, while the sandy shores of Folly Beach are approximately fifteen minutes from your front door. Large waterfront homesites with mature trees in Eastwood rarely become available. This is more than a home--it's an opportunity to create a legacy property in one of James Island's most treasured neighborhoods. Don't miss your chance to make this remarkable setting your own.
