Rarely has one of Charleston's large deepwater Estates become available as one parcel. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1974, the Paul Pritchard Shipyard (as it is listed) is also deemed by the SC Heritage Trust to be in the Top 100 Most Significant Sites in South Carolina. On this 8 acre site sits a beautiful Lowcountry home nestled among sixty-six live oaks. The land is flanked by a fresh and a salt water lake, includes over sixty acres of marsh and an island, two state of the art docks, and marsh and water views from every location. Enter through the Avenue of Live Oaks and see the lakes to the left and right. Expansive vistas of Hobcaw Creek and the Wando River also appear and at the creek end of the Avenue the beautiful home is framed by Live Oaks. Pass the Mexican tiled fountain and lush landscaping, the deep, wide front porch greets you with wrought iron railings and exposed roof rafters. The graceful front door, crafted of mahogany and beveled glass, opens to a very large marble foyer. As you continue towards the creek, an open informal floor plan reveals itself with the master suite downstairs. Reclaimed carved soapstone and heart pine grace the three large fireplaces. Mexican tile, carved doors, and a reclaimed wooden staircase are just a few of the numerous architectural details in this custom Ilderton-built three level home. The open and light kitchen boasts an island and top of the line appliances and fixtures from Viking, Thermador and KitchenAid. Numerous custom made cabinets with wine racks, double oven, warming drawer, and much more plus views of the Creek and River from every window and door. Upstairs includes a terrace with grand vistas of the waterways and marshes, four bedrooms, baths with Jacuzzi tubs and showers, abundant storage and open areas. As you move outside the home beyond the limbs and sturdy trunks of the oaks, walk past the boat ramp down to either of the true deep water docks. Both are "class A" - featuring concrete pilings, over engineered framing, and an astounding combined 345' of moorage. The "L" dock has outside moorage for up to a 70' vessel, plus one 38' slip and one 52' slip. The larger dock is 110' long, with over 20 feet of depth at low tide along the outside. Precisely why this site was chosen in Colonial times as a shipyard - for its deep and protected waters. SC's tall ship, the Spirit of South Carolina - with an overall length of 140 feet - visits here often for rest and relaxation. The history of the site is extensive. Written documentation of the shipyard beginning in 1721 reflected the need for a deep water site with close proximity to Charleston, a fresh water spring, and protection from Hurricanes offered by Live Oaks and adjacent high land. There are numerous options for this one of a kind Estate - build adjacent homes on approved subdivided lots and use one of the docks as a shared dock - or retain the Estate as one tract to do as you wish - the possibilities and opportunities this Estate presents are limitless.
