957 Travers Dr Charleston, SC 29412

Listing details for 957 Travers Dr, Charleston, SC 29412 : Lakefront on James Island, under 4 miles from downtown. Yes, really.Some houses have a nice yard. This one has a front-row seat on Lake Frances: ospreys diving out of the trees to snatch their dinner, egrets and blue herons standing statue-still in the shallows waiting for theirs, and on sunny evenings, huge mullet leaping out of the water like they're putting on a show. You'll watch all of it from your own private dock, coffee in hand.The house is an elevated four-bedroom, three-bath in Lawton Bluff, the kind of established James Island neighborhood where houses rarely change hands. The lake is brackish, fed by Charleston Harbor, and the fishing is legitimately good. When the evening's right, drop a boat in with an electric motor and take a sunset cruise toward the harbor.Inside, a vaulted family room opens through sliding glass doors to the deck and the water beyond. The updated kitchen anchors the main floor with a five-burner gas range, deep farmhouse sink, butcher-block counters, and a real pantry. The primary suite is on the main level too, with its own deck access and a bath built for lingering: walk-in shower, dual vanities, and a clawfoot tub looking out over the yard. Two more bedrooms and a full bath complete the first floor. Upstairs, a catwalk overlooking the family room leads to a bonus room, a third full bath, and a fourth bedroom: teenager wing, guest quarters, or the home office with the best view in the house. Take your pick. Out back: the dock, a fire pit, and a patio with pergola made for long dinners. The lot runs 0.37 acres, generous and level, with room for a potential future garage.* Survey in hand for any buyer who wants to explore it. The Harbor View Elementary bus stops at the front door. The drive home follows the causeway, lake on one side, harbor on the other. Folly Beach is just over 8 miles away, and the grocery store (Harris Teeter) is just over a mile away. This is not one to miss. -One seller currently holds a South Carolina real estate license, and the other previously held one. *Adding a garage has not been verified and is not guaranteed. Any modifications/additions shall be at the purchaser's sole expense and is subject to lot suitability, permitting requirements, HOA approval, local regulations, and approval by all applicable governmental and regulatory authorities.
