The incredible views from the east porch overlook marshes and the Morris Island Lighthouse. This estate is on deep water with dock (being rebuilt ). There is a guest house with two bedrooms, staff/security quarters, a pool, an orchid greenhouse, and some of the most beautiful gardens and grounds in Charleston.
