Would you like to pay HALF-PRICE for this single-story, brick home on 1.37 acres? This gorgeous - & PRIVATE - country oasis has a wonderfully updated, remodeled & energy efficient main house that also features a rare find: a detached high-income-producing apartment/MIL suite. Don't forget to bring your boat, RV or work vehicles & utilize the extra acreage because there is NO HOA! All of this lies within the DD2 school district & is still close to everything the Lowcountry has to offer.Oh, but there's SO MUCH MORE! This supremely well-maintained home also features a 4-car garage (two tandem 2-car bays) with a cooled mini-office, oversized screened porch, deck, 30 x 30 pole barn with electricity, chicken coop large enough for 25 hens, updated & remodeled master & hall baths...remodeled kitchen including brand new quartz countertops, water-resistant laminate floors throughout, exterior LED soffit lighting & more. The main home is 2,426 square feet with 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms and provides the ease and comfort of single-story living. The remodeled kitchen, living space and lower level "bonus room"/living room make for a wonderful space to entertain friends and family. The additional living room could be converted to a large 5th bedroom, if needed. Combined with the detached apartment/MIL Suite, there's a total of 3,030 square feet with 5 bedrooms (possibly 6) & 4 full baths. Let's talk about that extra income that you can bring in from the detached apartment. Last year, the suite brought in $31,921 through AirBnB. That's $2,660 per month! The unit features 604 square feet, 1 bedroom & 1 full bath. It also has its own driveway and side yard so that you & your guests can maintain privacy. The finances get even more interesting when you realize that you can convert one of the double-sized garage bays into another income-producing unit. At that point, you could essentially live in this home for FREE! Or, maybe you're a multi-generational family who wants to live together but needs separate spaces & room to spread out. Either way, the apartment is a truly RARE OPPORTUNITY and an amazing feature, indeed. Not only can you EARN significant funds from the detached apartment, but you also SAVE loads of cash thanks to the efficiency of the main home. While the home is filled with natural light, every last window has been replaced either this year or a few years ago with Low-E, Argon filled energy efficient windows. The attic features radiant foil plus additional blown insulation & zippered insulation-sealed access. Pair the above features with the commercial-grade, 3-Ton McQuay Geothermal heat pump - with 1,800 feet of closed ground loops buried 9 feet deep - and the results are staggering. The unit is so effective that it cools efficiently on the hottest summer days and provides warm air on the coldest winter days without breaking a sweat - or the bank - and averages less than $185/month for the electric bill! There's also a deep well for landscape watering & a well-maintained septic tank, which means no sewer bills and a miniscule water bill that averages less than $45/month and covers the main home AND apartment. The apartment has its own electric meter and, even with vacationing BnB guests cranking up the HVAC and lights, it still averages less than $116/month for its electric bill. Even with both bills combined, this is still significantly less than many larger homes! Stop paying for storage and keep your equipment and toys at home! If you're a business owner and utilize the land for parking your equipment, you're on your way to actually making money from this home. Or, perhaps you're a retiree with an RV or an outdoor enthusiast with a big ole' boat. There is a "curb cut" on the far right side of the property that is out-of-the-way and makes a perfect spot for a parking pad or shelter close to the 30 x 30 pole barn. Speaking of which, convert the pole barn to a workshop, office or a massive man-cave or she-shed, if you like. Or, maybe you can use it to house some animals. If you've got a family wedding in your near-future, it would make for a spectacular backyard ceremony! Let your imagination go wild. The cherry on top is that you don't have to drive way out to the middle of nowhere to enjoy this heavenly haven. Farmdale is a quaint and private neighborhood featuring large lots and friendly, non-nosy neighbors. Here, you are only a 13-minute drive from downtown Summerville and just 3 minutes away from the nearest grocery store. Several workplaces are within striking distance including Joint Base Charleston, Mercedes, Boeing & Volvo. Enjoy the sights, sounds and restaurants of Charleston in about 35 minutes and both Folly or Isle of Palms are about 50 minutes away in good traffic. Do not miss this amazing OPPORTUNITY for your family and make this home YOURS!
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)
