Charming mid-century 2BD, 2BA home in desirable Riverland Terrace. Much curb appeal outside, and inside, it is updated to an open floor plan with all the modern conveniences. The 2008 renovation included all new central HVAC, plumbing and electrical wiring. 200 amp electrical service has 4 available circuits. The handsome kitchen features dark cherry cabinetry, gorgeous granite counters with under-mount sink and breakfast bar, tile floor, and stainless steel sink, range, microwave, and dishwasher perfectly suited for entertaining two or an entire houseful. Refinished original hardwood floors and oil-rubbed bronze fixtures throughout the home. Doors and walls reconfigured giving an excellent flow. Laundry located in central hall. Owners Suite has its own spa-like bath with shower-tub, tile,, and lots of storage. Second BD has its own bath with shower, tile, and extra wall cabinets. Situated at the end of a tranquil street, the 100' right property line abuts Medway Park (site of the former Riverland Terrace Elementary School)enjoyed by friendly neighbors of all ages and their great dogs. The front portico welcomes guests, and a side-entry leads into the kitchen. Rain Bird irrigation system. The wide-open backyard is a sanctuary lined with oaks, magnolias, jessamine, bamboo, and azaleas. Potential here for a backyard retreat, an English garden, outdoor entertainment, or future expansion. Ideally situated between Maybank Highway, Wappoo Creek, and the Stono River, residents here enjoy a high quality of life that includes quick commutes despite increasing traffic issues in West Ashley, Mount Pleasant, and other areas of James Island. Shops, restaurants, and play are all nearby. The ever-popular Charleston Municipal Golf Course (where golf made it's national debut) is 0.2 miles; Mustard Seed Restaurant, Boulevard Diner, spas, a live music venue, Terrace Antiques, and the Terrace Movie Cinema are 0.6 miles or less; 0.9 miles to Plymouth Landing with boat access to the Wappoo Cut out to Charleston Harbor or the ICW; 2.2 miles to James Island County Park; only 4 miles to downtown Charleston, and 5 miles to King Street shopping, dining, and Charleston Farmers Market at Marion Square; Folly Beach is 9.5 miles; Charleston International Airport is 13.7 miles; Beachwalker Park at Kiawah Island is 18.5 miles. Other than LOCATION-LOCATION-LOCATION, reasons Riverland Terrace is a preferred choice include lifestyle, 700+ century old live oaks, a fun, active neighborhood association, a garden club that dates back to 1941. Nothing could be finer! This great house is turn-key, move-in ready!
