Built in 1922 beneath the canopy of centuries-old live oaks, this architecturally distinctive home is part of one of the Lowcountry's best-kept secrets--a tiny historic village tucked along Bohicket Creek that has quietly resisted the rapid growth that has transformed much of the Charleston region.Inside you'll find soaring ceilings, warm heart pine floors, stained-glass windows, and a striking staircase that serves as the home's architectural centerpiece. Rather than following a conventional floor plan, the home unfolds through light-filled living spaces that frame the surrounding live oaks at nearly every turn, drawing the outdoors into every room. It is a home with remarkable volume, warmth, and character rarely found in contemporary construction. Outside, the setting is everybit as compelling. Mature live oaks draped in Spanish moss define the property, while nearby Bohicket Creek offers easy access to everything that has drawn generations to this stretch of the Lowcountry--boating, fishing, sailing, and quiet evenings on the water. Life in Rockville is unlike anywhere else in the Charleston area. Occupying just half a square mile with fewer than 150 residents, the village has remained remarkably intact while the region around it has grown. Historic homes line shaded streets, neighbors still gather along the community bluff overlooking Bohicket Creek, and the working waterfront remains part of daily life. Each summer, Rockville hosts the Rockville Regatta, the oldest continually held sailing regatta in the United States, continuing a maritime tradition that has defined the village for well over a century. Yet despite its secluded setting, downtown Charleston--consistently recognized among America's most celebrated historic cities--is just a scenic drive away, allowing you to enjoy world-class dining, culture, and shopping before returning home to a place that feels worlds apart. No HOA, X flood zone.
