Some homes ask you to slow down. This one makes it easy.Beneath a canopy of mature oaks, a charcoal brick cottage offers a quieter expression of Lowcountry living. Warm light spills from the windows, a covered front porch welcomes you home, and beyond the front door, every detail has been thoughtfully reimagined.Completely rebuilt from the studs in 2025, the home pairs the character of its established Johns Island setting with the comfort and confidence of modern construction. New electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems form the foundation of a renovation where thoughtful design extends well beyond what meets the eye.At the heart of the home, a beautifully appointed kitchen brings together rich navy cabinetry, quartz countertops, warm brass accents, and a gas range.

Just a short walk away, a path along an easement leads toward the banks of Church Creek.

It's a place to watch the changing tide, take in the evening light, and experience the natural beauty that makes the Lowcountry so remarkable. Inside, two bedrooms and two full bathrooms offer a comfortable balance of privacy and ease.
