A connected and gated 55-acre private island with more than a mile of scenic water frontage, Hoopstick Island is just a 25-minute drive to town and offers an opportunity that exists nowhere else in Charleston. The natural refuge is set along Bohicket Creek's tranquil deep-water and situated directly across the protected 987-acre Bugby Plantation, ensuring natural privacy and scenic views for generations to come. With power and sewer in place and an elevated causeway, it's ideal for a private family compound or zoned for up to 10 estate lots, each with their own dock permit. Amidst the property's abundance of live oaks and by the deep-water dock is the perfect spot for the next owner to build a custom dream home with unmatched panoramic views. With 1.3 miles of water frontage and 169 historic trees, the views are truly unmatched. Come experience the best of Charleston's Lowcountry living in the area's last remaining private island of its kind. The island is ready for development, with an elevated causeway leading onto the island that has sewer, power and a six-inch utility conduit. Included in this sale is an additional 11-acre marsh front parcel off Bohicket Road, with approximately six acres of high ground. The island is maintained by a caretaker, who lives onsite in an existing three-bedroom caretaker house that is being sold ""as is."" In total, there are 61 acres of high ground in this listing, mostly in an X-flood zone. Be aware the zoning restrictions will NOT allow for any commercial use or for more than 10 homesites. The owner is only interested in selling the entire island as a package and will not sell off individual lots.
