Waterfront Live/Work Opportunity on 0.88 Acres – Ashley River Historic Overlay District
Located within the Ashley River Historic District, this 0.88-acre waterfront property offers a rare opportunity to combine residential living, business use, and income potential in one of the area’s most scenic settings. Featuring sweeping views of the Ashley River, the property delivers both functionality and lifestyle appeal.
The existing single-family residence is situated within a commercially influenced neighborhood, surrounded by R-4 zoned properties, making it ideal for a variety of business uses. This property is particularly well-suited for contractors or service-based businesses—such as roofing, painting, or landscaping—requiring fleet vehicle storage, equipment space, and on-site accessibility.
The home’s layout provides excellent flexibility for a live/work configuration, with space that can function as an office, reception area, or client-facing lobby while maintaining comfortable residential living quarters. In addition, the property presents a strong short-term rental opportunity (Airbnb or similar) given its waterfront setting and unique character.
Originally built in 1932 and expanded in 1972, the structure may also lend itself to subdivision into two separate living spaces, allowing for dual rental income, an owner-occupied setup with supplemental income, or separate business/residential use.
The expansive lot provides ample room for vehicle storage, equipment staging, or general outdoor use, further enhancing its appeal for business owners and investors alike.
