New attractive price on this beautiful 3.17 acre lot - privacy, wooded, and backs to tidal Church Creek. Convenient location is less than 2 miles to Maybank Hwy and approximately 20 minutes to downtown Charleston. 2.45 acres high land. Ready to build your dream home! Water is available and septic permit in hand.
Johns Island, located between the Ashley River and the Stono River, is a rural and coastal Charleston neighborhood with live oaks and tidal creeks. The Lowcountry landscape sets the pace, with marsh views, farm stands, and long two-lane roads leading to waterfront landings. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Maybank Highway corridor near River Road, where seafood counters, local markets, and casual patios cluster in a steady hum. Community pillars include The Royal American (on the island’s edge), Low Tide Brewing, and the Charleston Tea Garden. Architecture ranges from older cottages and ranch homes to newer elevated builds designed for floodplain living. Trails and boat ramps shape daily routines, with sunsets often framed by spartina grass and wide skies.
