Best View of the Charleston Harbor in Town for $1,150,000

Dockside condominiums was built along the Cooper River on the peninsula in 1978. A series of townhouses were put up alongside the 18 story tower. Luckily foer the townhouse inhabitants this is the case. The views are to die for pure and simple. And the ability to walk right out on to the concrete walkway along the river gives one a sense of being an integral part of the bustling harbor and its day to day life.I'm going to the Parade of Boats this weekend at this very same townhouse. You can almost reach out and hold the gaily decorated paddles that kayakers wield as they slide by. And the festive Christmas music coming from all of the brightly lit yachts, sailboats, and trawlers adds lots to the festivities, on sea and on shore.        

This 3BR, 2/1BA house is 2 stories and 2100 sq ft. The house has been tastefully updated with crown molding, track lighting, and granite counters. The courtyard deck off of the back dining room is especially chic and ready for lush flowers and veggies. With our mild climate, you can eat al fresco nearly year round.

I love the location of Dockside. Hop on a bike and be at the latest gallery opening in the blink of an eye, then on to one of the untold number of stunning restaurants in the downtown area. Or if you feel a little lazy, call a rickshaw!

The community is gated. The renovations on the pool, library, and lobby are just finished, ever so elegantly. Run to this harbor townhouse. It's perfect for a couple who wants to jump in to the downtown charleston lifestyle and also be a part of the ephemeral, yet enduring harbor life of this fascinating city. Bring your boat to moor just in front of your abode.
