Johns Island
Named after Saint John Parish in Barbados by the first English colonial settlers on the island who had come from there, Johns Island is located in Charleston County, South Carolina, and is the largest island in the state of South Carolina.
Johns Island is bordered by the Wadmalaw, Seabrook, Kiawah, Edisto, Folly, and James islands; the Stono and Kiawah rivers separate Johns Island from its border islands. Laced by tidal creeks and surrounded by rivers and waterways, the island offers a large variety of waterfront lots, and newly developed neighborhoods overlook Wadmalaw Sound and the Kiawah and Stono rivers. Second in size only to New York’s Long Island among sea coastal islands along the eastern seaboard, beautiful Johns Island is emerging as a highly sought-after address. Only 20 minutes to downtown Charleston, and boasting two brand new bridges, an executive airport, and a four-lane expressway to Kiawah Island, Johns Island is an ideal deep water real estate location. For most of its history, Johns Island has been a coastal farming center, and still boasts vast expanses of lush, unspoiled acreage only recently available to prospective real estate buyers. Winding country roads bordered by great live oaks sport a series of game preserves and newly-designed golf course communities. Abundant local farms are still in operation, growing fresh crops of tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, melons and winter greens, year-round produce offered in roadside markets and popular island restaurants. If you are looking for a rural setting close to historic Charleston and its nearby beaches... this is it.
One of Johns Island's most famous residents is the Angel Oak (pictured), estimated to be between 400 and 500 years old and is a must see attraction if you're in the area. Pack a lunch and just sit in awe.
