A rare opportunity in rural James Island to own a coastal cottage WITH the flexibility to build a larger primary residence in front of it. Or don't & just live in it! Just 3 miles from Folly Beach; bike there in the summer, it's faster than by car! Keep your boat right here (no HOA) tucked in the back of this .40-acre lot which is across from the MARSH. Such a peaceful area that takes you back in time you'll see wild turkeys, coastal birds, & deer, this existing tiny home (classified as an ADU) offers immediate use as a primary residence, guest cottage, or income-producing rental. The current home features wood-look tile flooring, updated windows, a tankless water heater, mini-split HVAC, & a roof*. The front porch/deck was replaced November 2025. SO MUCH flexibilty with this property--The town has verified a home can be built in front of this existing cottage. Steady ocean breezes and salty air in a location that feels relaxed yet incredibly convenient to the James Island Library, elementary school, grocerty stores, shopping, dining, and downtown Charleston. If you choose to tear down, add on or build a primary residence in front of this home, one PROPOSED OPTION (but you can build with whoever you'd like, whenever you want to) is the Kennedy floor plan by Hunter Quinn Homes, a raised coastal design with a drive-under garage, ideal for beach and Lowcountry living with ample storage for vehicles, golf carts, and outdoor gear. The plan includes a welcoming foyer, a study or flex space off the entry, and a spacious primary suite with a large walk-in closet and well-appointed bath with a separate water closet. Live in the existing home while planning or building, or keep the property as-is for a SIMPLER life. Few properties offer this level of flexibility, location, and income potential in such close proximity to Folly Beach. ***Roof & windows were replaced by the previous owners.
