Folly Beach, South Carolina
One of Charleston's favorite destinations, Folly Beach consistently charms both locals and visitors with its subdued development and close-knit island lifestyle. Located a short ten minute drive from the ambiance and history of downtown Charleston, Folly Beach is an excellent choice for those looking for the luxury of oceanfront living at a cost lower than most surrounding beaches.
Connected to the greater Charleston community solely by Folly Road through James Island, Folly Beach boasts miles of sandy beaches and breathtaking views. As one of the four major beaches in the Charleston community (along with the Isle of Palms, Sullivan's Island and Daniel Island) Folly Beach never fails to entertain with its unassuming, low-key charm and unspoiled natural beauty.
Development on Folly Beach is a combination of a commercial district in the downtown area, adjacent to Folly Road and ending at the Folly Beach Pier. Filled with local restaurants, island bars and beach shopping, this area has convenient parking and is easy walking distance from much of the island.
The surrounding residential community is a combination of vintage single-family homes and newer condominium developments. The renewed interest in this area and quirky zoning ordinances has allowed for a great mix of types, styles and ages of homes on Folly Beach.
The short five-minute drive from Folly Beach to James Island, allows for convenience while shopping without disturbing the atmosphere and serenity of beach living. The grocery stores, Wal-Mart and Lowe's of James Island are close by, but without the traffic and crowds that typically come with them.
Along with such traditional beach activities as boating, fishing, surfing and sunbathing, Folly Beach also has a host of unique sights and activities that impress both visitors and residents alike. The Morris Lighthouse, visible from the northeast end of Folly Beach and some 300 yards offshore, is a popular historic attraction. Completed in 1876 and now completely surrounded by water, this structure is a reminder to Charleston's nautical heritage.
Also, each year between May and September, loggerhead sea turtles come to shore on Folly Beach to lay their eggs. These new hatchling are born to great local fanfare after several months and begin their trek back towards the sea.
Whatever the time of year, Folly Beach is a consistently popular location for those in the Charleston community. With its quaint charm, reasonable prices and beachfront views, Folly Beach offers something for everyone: from children to seniors, locals to visitors, and families to singles.
Folly Beach offers all kinds of activities including kayaking, walking, shell hunting, and fishing, but Folly Beach is known best for surfing. Every month during the summer, Folly Beach hosts several surf competitions that draw large crowds to watch. On any given day you will find the area knows as the "Washout" full of surfers and young people enjoying the beach. Most of the College of Charleston students prefer to go to Folly Beach, and so do the majority of Charleston residents. The north and south parts of Folly Beach are county parks where there are no homes, so you'll find fewer people on the beach. From the north side of Folly Beach you can see a local landmark, the Morris Island lighthouse. Folly Beach is a great area to visit if you are looking for beach real estate in Charleston.

Real Estate on Folly Beach, SC
Folly Beach homes range from character beach houses to multi-million dollar ocean front estates. The majority of the homes on the beachfront of Folly are single-family, but there are a few ocean front condos near the Folly Pier. Real estate prices vary greatly on Folly, depending on whether the properties are waterfront homes (marshfront, ocean front, river front) or interior homes. The interior properties also vary, depending on the distance from the property to the ocean. Another important factor for the value of real estate on Folly Beach is the condition of the property. Some Folly Beach properties are older homes built in a time when beachfront properties weren't considered luxury properties, so some of the homes on Folly Beach are old shabby beach houses. These older homes give Folly Beach its character and offer buyers affordable real estate on Folly Beach. The downtown area of Folly Beach is made up of real estate companies, surf shops, and family-owned restaurants. Folly Beach has only one hotel on the front beach, the Holiday Inn. Most of the condos and town homes on Folly are located around Center Street, which is the main road coming on to Folly Beach.
