Listing Details

Tucked away in the storied waterfront village of Rockville, where Wadmalaw Island meets the Bohicket River, this timeless retreat offers a rare chance to own a piece of Lowcountry history. With serene river views framed by draping live oaks and a classic white picket fence, the setting feels lifted from a bygone era, where life moves a little slower and every detail whispers of charm and tradition.Set along a quiet dirt road behind old Grace Chapel, this gracious country cottage is a sanctuary from modern life, yet just 15 minutes from Johns Island's acclaimed dining and conveniences. Few homes capture the romance, craftsmanship, and enduring character of the Lowcountry quite like this one, where stained glass windows, soaring ceilings, heart pine floors, and rich wood finishespreserve its historic soul. Inside, the heart of the home is its oversized kitchen, built for gathering. With an expansive butcher block island, abundant cabinetry, a farm-style sink overlooking the garden, and a breakfast bar that seats six, it blends warmth and function for both chefs and entertainers. A built-in pass-through to the formal dining room adds to its charm. The main floor's intimate primary suite is wrapped in tongue-and-groove beadboard and features two walk-in cedar closets, a private bath with dual vanities, tiled shower, and soaking tub. Upstairs, a spacious bedroom with a window seat and a light-filled office with built-ins provide room to retreat, create, or host. Recent updates add comfort without compromising its authenticity (including a new metal roof, freshly painted exterior, custom shelving, and a new screened porch overlooking the large private yard). This is more than a home; it's an invitation into a lifestyle that feels both exclusive and reminiscent where history, community, and waterfront beauty converge in one unforgettable setting.
