As soon as you arrive at Tranquil Tides, you'll feel it--the gentle shift, the deep breath, the unshakable sense of peace that comes from being in sync with nature's rhythm. The tides ebb and flow like the earth itself is breathing, revealing an ever-changing marshland teeming with life. At low tide, the soft pop, pop, pop of crabs and oysters sounds like champagne bubbles rising to the surface. At high tide, dolphins might glide past your private dock, just beyond your back porch.This isn't just a home--it's a front-row seat to one of nature's most mesmerizing performances.With breathtaking views of the Folly River and Morris Island Lighthouse, your own private dock, and a three-minute walk to the beach, this coastal retreat embodies the best of Lowcountry living.Inside, this well-maintained 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom cottage spans 1,680 square feet, with wide-plank hardwood floors throughout. The spacious indoor and outdoor living areas maximize the stunning marsh and river views. The kitchen, designed for both style and function, features a new Bosch dishwasher, a new Z-Line gas range, and newly installed Quartzite countertops. Each level includes two bedrooms, a shared bath with upgraded Quartzite countertops and newly tiled walk-in showers, and a family room with breathtaking water views and outdoor access ensuring ample space to gather, relax, and unwind. Step onto the spacious screened porch or expansive outdoor deck, where the marsh unfolds before you in a stunning display of color and movement. Your private dock, complete with a pierhead and floater, allows small boat access to deeper waters just outside of low tide. As evening sets in, bring your favorite drink outdoors and watch the sun melt into the horizon, casting fiery hues across the water perhaps even catching a glimpse of dolphins playing in the golden light. Located just steps from the iconic Washout, one of Charleston's premier surf destinations, this home is a dream for water lovers. Fishing, boating, paddleboarding, and windsurfing are all at your fingertips. And when you're ready to experience Folly Beach's laid-back charm, a short bike or golf cart ride takes you to Center Street's renowned restaurants and shops. With a newer roof, new siding, HVAC, and multiple updates, Tranquil Tides is move-in ready so you can focus on what truly matters: embracing the relaxed, rejuvenating lifestyle this coastal sanctuary offers. Limited showing times due to rental schedule. Short term rental license will not convey with the sale.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
