The 1915 River House is a delicate retreat designed for adult couples to relax, rejuvenate and become immersed in Lowcountry nature. What awaits is 18 acres of land on Charleston’s barrier island of Folly Beach across the street from the Atlantic Ocean. Included is a covered pierhead and 20’ floating dock with power and water on the Folly River about ½ mile from the Folly marina with easy access to the Atlantic Ocean. In its history, it housed the 1930’s Folly Boys Camp, has and continues to be a bird and wildlife sanctuary, and from the looks of the terrain, was a supply loading point for Union forces in preparation for the Battle of Charleston in the Civil War. Over the years the owners restored the 1,600 sf cottage, groomed the land, built a dock to deep water, and added fun stuff like a tree house, outdoor stone fireplace and dining table, swings and over a mile of walking/golf cart trails through moss laden oaks and along the riverfront and marsh. Inside, the all heart pine house has been restored with modern conveniences and decorated with funky antiques and artwork.
