“From the start Kent was amazing staying in contact with us. We lived in different countries and he was very helpful and spent the time to contact us during the times our schedules lined up even if it was late at night or early morning. He went up and above our expectations for a realtor and we would recommend him to everyone we can! Can't thank him enough for his insight and willing to negotiate through all the tough decisions. Kent had amazing foresight and his experience and expertise was invaluable to a first time home buyer.”

James Island delivers an easygoing coastal lifestyle with quick access to work, school, and play. Five miles from Charleston and minutes from Folly Beach, it’s the rare place where paddleboards share space with briefcases. Tree-lined streets lead to creeks, marsh views, and neighborhood parks, while local cafes and music spots like the Charleston Pour House keep evenings lively without crossing the bridge. Weekends swing from farmers markets to boat launches, with sunrises over the harbor and sunsets along the Stono.
Outdoor time is a way of life. At James Island County Park, you’ll find miles of trails, disc golf, a climbing wall, and seasonal events like the Holiday Festival of Lights. History is close at hand at McLeod Plantation Historic Site—an essential stop for learning about the Lowcountry’s past through preserved grounds and powerful interpretation. Families love splash-filled summers, shaded playgrounds, and pocket access to creeks for crabbing and kayaking.
Schools are part of the draw, with neighborhood options under the Charleston County School District and a strong local high school community. Town services are responsive and accessible through the Town of James Island, and proximity to Charleston County resources expands recreation, libraries, and more. Housing ranges from mid-century ranches to modern builds tucked among grand oaks, with commutes that make beach days and downtown dinners equally reachable.
