Johnson Estates, located between Folly Road and Harbor View Road, is a residential and coastal James Island neighborhood with marsh-edge scenery and a low-slung, lived-in streetscape. The neighborhood reads as classic Lowcountry: ranch homes, live oaks, and tidal creeks shaping the blocks. The character concentrates around the Folly Road corridor near the Maybank Highway junction, where local taquerias, seafood counters, and patio bars set a steady, after-work hum. Community pillars nearby include The Pour House, Kwei Fei, and Crust Wood Fired Pizza. Waterfront air and boat traffic drift in from the Stono River side. Daily rhythms orbit parks, paddle launches, and the short drive to Folly Beach.

Beautiful James Island Family Home on quiet cul-de-sac with incredible sunsets over the creek and marsh! Serene nature all around with its mature trees and landscaping. As you walk up the quaint, cobblestone style walkway, this homestead just invites you right in! Immediately as you enter the foyer you'll notice the warm hardwood flooring and pretty, oversized arched doorways. To the right of the foyer in the front room is a fantastic place to be used as a formal living room, a den, reading room, or art studio. Adjacent to that is a formal dining room, which leads into the eat-in kitchen and family room. The kitchen boasts a large island, tons of counter and cabinet space, and overlooks a spacious family room with a wood-burning fireplace, built-in desk/bookshelf and a wet bar.Each bedroom has ample closet space and windows for letting in natural light, and bathrooms with tiled showers. Sip your morning coffee or have that evening cold beverage inside the screened porch off the kitchen and take in the breathtakingly beautiful oaks, camellias, azaleas, blueberry bushes, and the creek. This home is complete with a patio deck and enormous fenced back yard with plenty of room for that summer grill, kids playland or even a zipline! Enjoy entertaining family or friends at the neighborhood pool. Tennis courts and Demetre Park close by. Stiles Point Elementary and James Island Charter High School are just down the street. Minutes to Downtown, South Windermere, Starbucks, Folly Beach and more!
