Rarely do you find a parcel with this much future potential! The land alone with 400ft of prime road frontage paired with 1.3 acres in the heart of Awendaw is worth buying alone but this one also comes with an adorable cottage directly across the street from the trailhead to the Palmetto trail that stretches from the coast to the mountains.
