Just one block away from the coast on one of the most desired residential beaches in South Carolina and sitting on over a half-acre lot lies one of the rarest and most unique real estate sales in all of Charleston. Part of the Harbor Defense of Charleston in World War II, the Battery 520 of the Marshall Military Reservation is a sub-post of Fort Moultrie built upon the ruins of the Revolutionary War and U.S. Civil War posts. At an elevation of 20' above sea level, this concrete coastal gun battery is located on the eastern end of Sullivan's Island, overlooking Breach Inlet, in Charleston Harbor. The residence is teeming with history. The Marshall Military Reservation was where the advance guard prepared for the Revolutionary War Battle of Sullivan's Island.Just down the street is Breach Inlet, home base for the H.L. Hunley, which in 1864 became the first submarine to sink an enemy ship in battle. Constructed in 1941 and following the attack on Pearl Harbor, the military combined its focus on sea coast defense with aerial defense. Existing batteries were camouflaged, but if detected, remained vulnerable to aerial attack. Therefore, the next and last generation of coastal artillery was mounted under thick concrete shields covered with vegetation to make them virtually invisible from above. This battery hosted two 12-foot long-range rifles mounted in casemate barbette carriages. It is considered among the largest batteries to be built. These 415,000-pound gun carriages shot 1 1/3 rounds per minute and were transferred from Fort Travis in Galveston, Texas. Designed for targets 15 miles offshore, these giant guns were only test-fired once (two shots), causing a tidal wave in the ocean, capsizing boats in the harbor, cracking plaster, and shaking chandeliers in Downtown Charleston. These guns were too large for this section of the East Coast and it was overlooked that Charleston lies on an earthquake fault line. Thus, for safety reasons, they were never fired again. The battery was deactivated in 1947 and the guns were returned to Galveston. The area now contains private homes. Since then, the bunker became a place of intrigue and a spot for parties. One story has it that one of America's Most Wanted Criminals, Trigger Burke, in 1948 hid out in the bunker with a stash of stolen money that was never recovered. The property was converted to residential use in 1972. The property has many one-of-a-kind features, such as incredible protection from hurricane-force winds and inclement weather. In addition, this concrete house does not experience termite damage. The home features 7,000 sq. ft., 4 large bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and 11 ft. ceilings. The structure supports 15-foot thick walls and steel reinforcement beams through the 150-foot long dwelling. There is an accommodating kitchen and dining area. A massive indoor hallway leads to 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms. The front room is a large living quarters, marked by a bricked-in slightly sunken patio that once operated as a home soaking spa. This area is where the cannon was mounted and the 10 ft. hole is now filled in with sand to bring the beach to your doorstep. The residence has suffered no more than a broken window in Hurricane Hugo while most houses surrounding it were heavily damaged. A walkway leads to the roof highlighted by a metal rendering of a Wahoo Fish. This spot could likely support a more traditional one-story house without exceeding the town's height ordinance. It could then be connected to the bunker via an elevator and/or stairwell.

About Me
What makes me different and more worthy than any other agent? Great Question…
1.) I have been in the real estate industry since 1998
2.) At 29 years old I founded a wholesale mortgage firm here in Charleston and as such being the President/CEO I was responsible for overseeing 13 team members, two branches, ALL the marketing functions, business development, training of real estate agents in financing, training of my loan officers, and making sure over $85 Million in loans got closed. Of which most were purchases. So I have REAL business knowledge and real estate is business vs an agent without that savvy business skills.
3.) I graduated from University of S.C. where my major was media arts. What’s that mean? What you are reading right now is media. Everything you see and hear is media. Everything on a computer is digital media, websites, video, photographs, and audio. I studied video production, photography/lighting courses, audio recording, and more. Even post cards, billboards, news paper are ALL media, print media. (Although it’s an antiquated media). With that knowledge your home will have the most beautiful representation to the prospective buyers, instead of most of what you see out there (poorly lit, poorly framed, bad photos and video that put off buyers).
4.) 95% OF ALL REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS BEGIN WITH THE INTERNET… PERIOD, IT IS FACT. I am a digital internet marketing expert. I consult other businesses on how to harness the internet’s power through web design, SEO (search engine optimization), content marketing, image marketing, user experience design, online ad management and more.
When listing a home for sale there isn't an exact science to it, but what is required is knowing all the facts, and that's where I come in. What's a home valuation really anyway?
Estimating the value of real property is important to a variety reasons, but for most people, determining the asking or purchase price of a property is the most useful application of real estate valuation. This article will provide an introduction to the basic concepts and methods of real estate valuation, particularly as it pertains to real estate sales.
That's all well and good, however what most home owners in Charleston SC and the U.S. really want to know is what's my property worth now if I were to try to sell it? The most common method  that 90% of listing agent use is:Â
The Sales Comparison Approach.
Value -
A main consideration in appraising is to determine a property’s value: the present worth of future benefitsarising from the ownership of real property. Unlike many consumer goods such as oil, lumber, food, etc. that are quickly used, the benefits of real property are generally realized over a long period of time. Therefore, an estimate of a property’s value must take into consideration economic and social factors, as well as governmental controls or regulations and environmental conditions that may influence the four elements of value:
- Demand – the desire or need for ownership supported by the financial means to satisfy the desire;
- Utility – the ability to satisfy future owners’ desires and needs;
- Scarcity – the finite supply of competing properties
- Transfer-ability – the ease with which ownership rights are transferred.
– What have the homes that are MOST comparable to yours (subject property) sold for recently per sq ft., and  what is currently for sale (taking into account scarcity from above)?
– What are the prices being asked by your competing listings in and around your neighborhood.
Other Factors inside the two primary ones above include: (age of home, physical features, location, conditions of the sale, economic conditions)
