Fort Johnson Estates on James Island

Fort Johnson Estates is a favorite neighborhood on James Island. This elegant community existed long before master-planned communities dictated lot sizes and square footage so the beautiful estates, custom built in the 60’s, are large and sit on expansive lots that average a half acre in size. Many homes are one-story, although there are two-story houses as well, and all feature 3 or more bedrooms. Some of the of the homes sit right on the marsh and feature scenic views. Lovingly maintained with pride these estates, like fine wine, have grown better with age and list prices run from the low $200Ks to over $500K.

There are no traditional Homeowners Associations which charge monthly fees. Instead the Fort Johnson Civic Association maintains the clubhouse, pool, tennis courts, and more. There is even a neighborhood competitive swim team. Residents may pay a yearly fee for access to these amenities. If they opt out, there is river access and a creek close by, offering endless opportunities for fun in the water. Nearby supermarkets, professional services, restaurants, and more, provide all the daily services that keep life running smoothly. Historic downtown Charleston is only 10 minutes away and some of the area’s most enchanting beaches are just 15 minutes away.

This neighborhood is an exceptional blend of privacy and access to all the exciting experiences that make for a rich full life. People who settle here, stay and neighbors become friends.
