Property Description

Tucked away on Oakland Drive in the sought-after Coffin Point community, this charming ranch-style home sits on a picturesque one-acre lot surrounded by majestic live oaks and the timeless beauty of the Lowcountry. Painted a rich green that blends seamlessly into its natural surroundings, the home feels perfectly at home among mature landscaping, fruit trees, and lush gardens, including guava, lemon, lime, and a variety of other established plantings. Inside, you'll find 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, a bright Carolina room, stylish LVP flooring throughout, and a separate 259-square-foot bonus room off the carport, ideal for a home office, studio, or hobby space. Recent updates include a new HVAC system in 2024, updated plumbing, and ongoing cosmetic improvements, including fresh paint in select areas and finishing touches throughout the home. Additional conveniences include public water, a private septic system, and a dedicated irrigation well to help keep the mature landscaping and established gardens thriving while minimizing water costs. Just steps from the home, enjoy peaceful views of Coffin Point Creek at the end of the road, along with convenient community beach access. Whether you're searching for a full-time residence or a peaceful second-home retreat, Coffin Point offers a lifestyle that's becoming increasingly rare. Residents enjoy an active, welcoming community with neighborhood gatherings, casual bonfires, social hours, golf cart parades for select holidays, and a private neighborhood Facebook group that helps neighbors stay connected and organize local events. Yet one of Coffin Point's greatest qualities is that participation is entirely your choice. If your idea of paradise is quiet mornings beneath the oaks, afternoons in the garden, and evenings listening to the sounds of nature, you'll find plenty of peace and privacy here as well. Golf cart-friendly roads, sprawling homesites, and a more rural atmosphere complete with horses, hobby farms, and other farm animals create a unique charm that's increasingly difficult to find. Whether you're dreaming of expanding the home, creating your own garden oasis, or simply embracing the privacy and tranquility of a full-acre homesite, this property offers a rare opportunity to experience authentic Lowcountry living while enjoying the perfect balance of community and solitude.
