Johns Island, SC Real Estate
Johns Island Homes for Sale
John's Island, SC is located south of James Island and the Charleston Peninsula. Even though Johns Island is only 15 minutes from downtown Charleston, it is mostly undeveloped farmland and horse pastures. Development boundaries and new waterlines have recently been approved, so development in John's Island is expected to boom in the coming years. Also, there are plans to extend Interstate 526 into John's Island from West Ashley and back to the James Island Connector (Hwy 31). This will encourage even more development and should drive up real estate prices.

More John's Island, SC Information
Located past James Island and some twenty minutes to the west of the boutique shopping and restaurants of downtown Charleston, lies the wooded outlying community of Johns Island. Bearing more in common with rural West Ashley than the increasingly developed James Island that connects it to the rest of Charleston County, Johns Island is a pleasant anomaly and a welcome sight to the home buyer whose interests are privacy, relaxation and a close connection to the land.
Connected to the greater Charleston community mainly through a series of scenic causeways and bridges, Johns Island is truly a land apart from other Charleston suburbs. Countless wooded lots and breathtaking marsh views give this predominantly rural area a closer feel to that of Berkeley or Dorchester Counties, but with the benefit of being a short drive to the heart of downtown.
For nature-lovers and history buffs alike, there is much to see and do on Johns Island. The towering Angel Oak, a 1500 year old Southern Live Oak, is located in Angel Oak Park and is thought to be one of the oldest living things east of the Mississippi. Each year, during Charleston's annual Spoleto Festival, there is the series of events "An Evening Under the Angel Oak" featuring dancing, music and other cultural activities. Also located nearby is the popular James Island County Park, with its climbing wall, numerous nature trails, dog park, splash zone, and sprawling camp grounds.
Johns Island is an excellent choice for both first time home buyers as well as those looking for investment opportunities on a larger scale. The charm of Johns Island lies in its largely unspoiled character and close proximity to the more developed areas of downtown, West Ashley and James Island. Although dense residential communities are beginning to spring up on Johns Island, there are numerous modestly priced land/home packages to be found. For those looking to stretch their home buying dollar (as well as possibly trying their hand at farming), freestanding homes in this area are often comparable in price to townhouses and condominiums in other Charleston districts.
Investors interested in larger possibilities would also do well to consider the advantages of Johns Island. With its acres of undeveloped real estate and numerous waterways, Johns Island is an excellent location for real estate development. There is also a lively ongoing debate concerning the future of Johns Island: whether a proposed annex of Interstate 526 will be added to the island, dramatically increasing growth, or whether it will retain the breezy charm and sustainability that have been its history for the past hundred years. Either way, it is those who call Johns Island home that will ultimately benefit.
Johns Island offers country living with a short drive to downtown Charleston and to the beaches that you won't find anywhere else in Charleston. There are several established neighborhoods in Johns Island, and most of them have new construction homes. You can also find several waterfront neighborhoods in Johns Island that have deep water docks on the Stono or Bohicket Rivers. Properties on Johns Island will start in the $130's for condos, $150's for town homes, and the high $100's for single family homes. If you are looking for land to build a house on, you can expect to pay around $30,000 per acre for raw land, or $130,000 plus for a lot in an established subdivision.
