Nestled beneath grand oaks and framed by nearly 3.9 acres of native Lowcountry landscape, this private Stono Pointe retreat feels worlds away while remaining just minutes from Charleston. A winding approach reveals a home designed to embrace its surroundings at every turn - expansive porches, glowing sunset skies, marsh breezes, and quiet moments gathered around the fire pit beneath the trees.Designed to embrace the marsh and Stono River views, the home unfolds through generous indoor and outdoor gathering spaces that invite a slower pace and an effortless connection to the outdoors. Elevated for both views and peace of mind, the residence offers effortless access via elevator from the oversized 3-car garage.The recently enhanced outdoor living spaces are the true centerpiece of the property. Completed in 2025, the expansive rear deck was upgraded with new cable railings and rich IPE accents, while a portion of the deck was thoughtfully transformed into a 25x12 screened porch wrapped in No-See-Um screening and positioned directly off the primary suite, creating a private outdoor retreat designed for year-round enjoyment. Inside, oversized windows fill the home with natural light and frame the surrounding marsh and landscape views throughout the main living areas. Hardwood floors extend throughout the home, including all bedrooms where new hardwood flooring was added during the current ownership. A gas fireplace anchors the living room, while the kitchen features a built-in wall oven, gas cooktop, generous prep space, and a built-in window seat perfectly positioned to take in the views. Thoughtful improvements throughout the property reflect both comfort and long-term stewardship, including a whole-house Generac generator (2024), full interior re-paint (2023), front porch deck boards, joists, and posts replaced (2025), invisible fencing for pets, drip irrigation surrounding the home and raised vegetable beds, and carefully curated native landscaping designed to thrive naturally across the acreage. Army Corps-approved dock permit conveys with the property (valid through December 2026). Rich in Charleston history, the property also preserves the tabby remains of an early 1800s structure from the former Oakvale Plantation, where Kinsey Burden pioneered Sea Island cotton cultivation through seed selection. The preserved tabby walls remain integrated into the landscape today, creating a striking architectural feature and a rare connection to the region's past. Properties like this are increasingly rare - private, peaceful, and deeply connected to the surrounding landscape.
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.

A quiet drive though Stono Pointe leads to the access to this home from the cul-de-sac at the north end of Kemway Road. Take the stairs, or the elevator from the 3-car garage, to enjoy views of the marsh and Stono River from the living area. Step outside to the large rear deck from the master suite, den or kitchen to fully absorb the serenity of the surroundings. The home flows nicely from the kitchen w/ breakfast area to the adjoining den and separate dining room. Then known as Oakvale Plantation, on these lands Kinsey Burden was the first to develop sea island cotton through seed selection. The tabby walls of an early-1800's storage building remain on this site, protected by the expansive front deck! Transferable permit for private dock with boat lift in hand
