Property details
About 1872 Arsburn Rd
This rare half-acre lot is tucked away in a private pocket of James Island, offering unmatched privacy and charm--just minutes from the sand of Folly Beach and a short drive to downtown Charleston. With S-3 zoning, the property allows for a custom primary residence along with an accessory dwelling unit (ADU), making it ideal for multigenerational living, a guest house, or additional rental income.All utilities--water, electricity, and sewer--are already located at the street. Sewer service is provided by the James Island Public Service District, requiring only the installation of a grinder pump (typically a few hundred dollars) with a small ongoing fee of $8-$12 per month.Adding to its appeal, the lot holds a historical designation, preserving its character and ensuring thoughtful development. You'll never have a neighbor to the north, as that side is permanently protected. On the other side, a small easement path adds both charm and walkability to the area. A local community group actively maintains the neighborhood and has secured a grant to turn nearby green space into a botanical garden, further enhancing the surroundings. A recent survey has been completed by a reputable builder and includes full tree mapping, confirming both usability and value. This is a unique opportunity to build something special in one of Charleston's most desirable coastal communities.
