Step back in time and discover your own slice of Southern paradise! Nestled on approximately 13 private, mostly wooded acres between Reevesville and Bowman--just minutes from I-95 and St. George--this charming solid-brick home offers the ultimate country retreat with no HOA. Featuring 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, a brand-new architectural roof in 2025, and a whole-home water filtration system, this property blends vintage character with modern peace of mind. Complete with a small stable, fenced pastures for horses, and a serene garden, this rare gem is ready for its next chapter. Come on by and take a look!Welcome to a place where the hustle and bustle of the city simply melt away. Situated on a quiet country road away from any heavy traffic, this property delivers the peace and quiet you've been searching for, while keeping you conveniently close to everyday amenities. You are just a short drive from cozy small towns, 30 to 60 minutes from vibrant hubs like Charleston, Columbia, Orangeburg, and Summerville, and roughly 30 minutes from Lake Marion for easy weekend fun on the water. As you arrive, you are greeted by a charming, ground-level front porch framed by tall columns, lovely flowering beds, and plenty of space for rocking chairs and a porch swing. It's the kind of spot where slow afternoons and sweet tea go hand in hand, setting the tone for the relaxed pace of life found here. Step inside this well-loved, solidly built 1976 home--an era when true craftsmanship mattered and homes were built to stand the test of time. Fresh luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring flows effortlessly through the main living areas, offering both style and durability. The open-concept living space is anchored by a cozy wood-burning stove, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere for family gatherings, chilly evenings, or quiet weekends reading a good book. The quaint kitchen is an absolute delight and a true must-see, offering a functional, cozy, and welcoming space to whip up your favorite family recipes. The home features nicely sized bedrooms with plenty of closet space, including a comfortable primary suite complete with a private bath featuring a jetted tub--the ideal place to unwind after a long day. Need a bit of extra space for storage, hobbies, or future expansion? Just head up the stairs to the walk-in semi-finished attic, which can easily be converted into another room, home office, or creative studio to suit your exact needs. Practical updates include a reliable well system paired with a whole-home water filtration system, adding even more convenience and comfort to everyday country living. Step outside, and the property truly comes alive through the seasons. Spring brings a breathtaking burst of color, highlighting the majesty of the home with blooming azaleas, a peach tree, blueberry bushes, and a wonderful variety of flowers that draw hummingbirds to make their summer homes here. Summer brings fun, wide-open areas for people, pets, and local wildlife to roam freely. Fall colors and golden sunsets become a gentle, picturesque reminder of seasonal change across the landscape, while mild winters offer occasional, beautiful, but short-lived snow flurries--giving you all the fun of the season without the harsh hassle. One of the property's absolute crown jewels is the shaded carport, which is frequently used as a peaceful outdoor retreat. Sitting here overlooking the wonderfully arranged flowering garden, listening to the gentle sounds and sights of nature, and feeling the cool breeze makes it enjoyable even on hot days. Personally, you'll find the experience relaxing to a point that you never want to leave. For the animal lover or homesteader, this property is an incredible find. It features a small stable and two fenced areas, making it ideal if you want to keep one or two horses without breaking the bank. Tucked deeper into the property, you will also discover a small natural pond set among the trees, adding to the picturesque wilderness feel of your very own acreage. For less than what most modern homes cost on tiny neighborhood lots with virtually no real land, this remarkable estate offers about 13 acres in total. It's an ideal setting for raising kids in a simple, safe environment, giving them a wholesome outdoor experience that simply can't be found in the city. Whether you are looking to escape the rat race and live a simpler life, or searching for the perfect manageable setup for your horses, this property delivers. This home is in the country and feels like you stepped back in time and are so far away from the rest of the world. But in reality, you are just minutes from a few small towns and within a short 30- to 60-minute drive of larger cities, with I-95 and I-26 nearby to make travel quick and easy. With Lake Marion also roughly 30 minutes away for a fun day on the water, convenience meets seclusion in the most remarkable way. There is so much that makes this home an amazing find that it is truly hard to put into all words. It is a true must-see and a rare gem to find on the open market. Come take a look, breathe in the fresh country air, and see why this property is ready to welcome you home!
This lovely, well-maintained home situated on 13 private acres in Bowman only an hour from all that downtown Charleston has to offer is full of charm and character! On the property you will find 3 cleared and fenced in pastures, 3 horse stalls, a 100 year old barn as well as a large country style front porch perfect for relaxing on a cool spring evening. The inside of the home features a spacious living room with fireplace large enough for all the family to gather, kitchen with updated granite countertops and plenty of cabinet space and three generously sized bedrooms. The second floor of the home is 252 sqft of a unfinished bonus room and just needs flooring and ductwork and would make a great office/playroom/4th bedroom.
