John's Island SC Real EstateJohn's Island lies due west of the Charleston peninsula, serving as a "gateway" island for its more famous neighbors, Kiawah Island and Seabrook Island. Technically an island because it is surrounded by the Intracoastal Waterway, the Stono River, the Kiawah River and Bohicket Creek, Johns Island is protected from the ocean by the islands surrounding it. A patchwork of natural waterways separated by farmland, residential property and commercial development, John's Island has always served as the agricultural heart of the area. In fact, much of the produce that distinguishes the unique flavors of Lowcountry Cuisine is grown on John's Island. John's Island is well known throughout the state and region for its outstanding crops of fruits and vegetables.
In recent years, John's Island real estate has not gone unnoticed by developers. With its diverse natural scenery and long stretches of ancient oaks, the island offers a quiet, country lifestyle in close proximity to the city of Charleston. Bohicket Road is the main highway through the island. It has been widened near the entrances of Kiawah and Seabrook with that area now beginning to attract its fair share of upscale residents.
