Oceanfront Lot For Sale in Charleston on Nature Preserve

Do you drool over the beautiful islands for sale all over the world, but know that access for you would be difficult at best? Wish you could own one and still be close enough to use it? Botony Bay Island near Charleston, S.C. is one of the last remaining undeveloped oceanfront islands in the area. It consists of 600 acres of prime maritime forest and wetland preserves.

We host active nesting bald eagles, ospreys, loggerhead turtles, myriads of dolphins, etc. This special property for sale consists of a two acre oceanfront lot which has been improved by adding a septic system and electricity.

It is surrounded by maritime forest. The island is owned primarily by 12 families, who have placed a large portion of the island under a conservation easement in conjunction with the nature conservancy.

We share a "lodge", which sleeps 26 people, built by the premiere builders Bennett Hoffard. In addition to owning your own lot, upon which you may build a house or guest cottage to live in, or use, as often as you wish, you will also get 4 weeks private use per year in the lodge (one in each season). This is rustic elegance at its finest and is a wonderful place for family gatherings or school sleepovers. The lodge has a gourmet kitchen with double ovens, two refrigerators, two dishwashers. The house has its own water purification system.

Only golf carts are permitted on the island, so the kids can explore to their heart's content. The island is accessible by boat, a 10 minute ride from Bohicket Marina. We are across the North Edisto River from Seabrook Island, which has many amenities such as pool, tennis, golf, and horseback riding facilities. The island is also quite close to Kiawah Island. Botany Island will never be developed, aside from the intent mentioned. If you love privacy and nature, yet yearn to have wonderful cultural activites at hand, this is an unbelievable opportunity to own and enjoy a stunningly beautiful natural habitat so close to Charleston, S.C.
