DEEP WATER and a SHORT DOCK! That's just the beginning of the features that await the owners of ''Yellowhouse'' on Leadenwah Creek, Wadmalaw Island, SC. 6196 Rockefeller Rd is a farmhouse design that has been renovated to-the-studs with high end finishes throughout.Peace and quiet with a view! Enjoy the rural nature of Wadmalaw while only 45 minutes from downtown Charleston and 15 minutes from shopping and restaurants on Johns Island.Yellowhouse sits atop a 3.14 acre X-Zoned bluff with 440 feet of river frontage and a long view towards Selkirk Plantation.The property is surrounded by majestic oaks dripping with Spanish moss, a freshwater pond which serves as a paradise for birds and, on its eastern boundary, is abutted by 25 acres of conservation easement planted in native grasses. Deer, turkey, pileated woodpeckers, owls, hummingbirds, egrets, osprey, and fox adorn the landscape. When the painted buntings arrive in the spring you will marvel at their vivid colors. At 2200 sq ft, Yellowhouse is perfectly suited as a primary residence or a low-maintenance second home. There are three bedrooms (one currently used as an office) and 2.5 baths. Stainless steel kitchen appliances include GE Caf series dishwasher and wine cooler plus Wolf range.An outdoor kitchen and outdoor shower are ready for entertaining and weekends on the river. Take in the magnificent sunsets from the widow's walk with a glass of wine. The dock includes a covered pierhead, floating dock with electricity and water - perfect for family gatherings, boating and swimming in the river.Please see attached list on the documents tab for many more features and upgrades.By boat you are 13 minutes from your dock to the mouth of the North Edisto River. Another 5 minutes takes you to the beaches of Botany, Seabrook and Deveaux Bank plus a deep water channel to the Atlantic Ocean no shoals to navigate. 5 minutes in the opposite direction puts you in the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW). Take a short afternoon cruise past historic Rockville to Bohicket Marina for dinner and shopping. You'll never exhaust your fishing options be it deep sea, surf or inshore.Yellowhouse is accessed via a private shared road (Rockefeller Rd). A leisurely drive down this oak-lined avenue finds you at the entrance to your new home marked by brick pillars defended by ancient camellias and expansive live oaks. When you arrive, relaxed and energized, you will soak in the view and reflect on the tranquility of this place. Every; single; time.
