Photographs Of Different Types Of Charleston Waterfront Property
Charleston Tidal Creek Lots And Property
The Charleston area offers different types of waterfront property on which to build a home to take advantage of waterfront activities. In searching for waterfront homes for sale in Charleston you will probably encounter references to tidal creeks. Tidal creeks run off of the major Rivers in the Charleston area such as the Wando, Cooper and Ashley Rivers.Dependent upon the creek and location of a particular lot, the creek off a home owner's lot may be dry at low tide or have only a foot or two of water. In this instance, most boat owners keep their boat raised on a boat lift. Dependent upon the type, size and amount of water their boat may drawl, navigation in and out of the creek may be restricted by a few hours a day. Nevertheless, most home owners on tidal creeks are able to enjoy boating for many hours each day.Tidal Creek lots start at about $450,000 with homes on tidal creeks in the $1,000,000 + range.
Charleston Deepwater Property
True deepwater property in the Charleston area is hard to come by and pricey. Having the ability to keep a large boat on one's property carries quite a premium, although in my opinion certainly worth it to anyone who has the means and appreciates the convenience of being able to come and go as they please on a boat large enough to take advantage of the excellent fishing found in Charleston Harbor and offshore. True deepwater lots, when they can be found, are often priced in the $700,000 + range with homes on deepwater starting at about $1,600,000.
