McClellanville Real Estate
All Four Forestry Properties Sold in Auction
April 20th, 2008 All Articles, McClellanville Real Estate Daniel Bates No Comments
I had written last October about the US Forestry auctioning their 4 properties in McClellanville. The 3 homes and 1 lot were initially priced higher than expected and received very little interest and no bids. They were taken off the market for a brief period and reintroduced at much more affordable prices. This was an internet auction, once a bid was placed the price rose by predetermined increment for the next bidder. Interest was much higher at these new prices and all four properties were sold this weekend at the close of the auction. Here is a review of the properties and what they sold for, although it is important to keep in mind that these homes have not been lived in for quite a while and will need some work to bring them up-to-date.
735 Morrison Street
Tidal Waterfront 1750 sq.ft.
Starting Bid of $340,000
Sold for $340,000
161 Liberty Street
1190 sq.ft. built in 1940
Starting Bid of $140,000
Sold for $140,000
941 S. Pinckney Street
1390 sq.ft built in 1964
Starting Bid of $125,000
Sold for $145,000
Vacant Lot on Liberty
3/4 acre building lot
Starting Bid of $80,000
Sold for $80,000
These were truly some great deals, but there are still plenty of other great deals on the market available today without waiting and without the restraints of government auctions. It’s a buyer’s market out there with high inventory, low prices, good interest rates, and many sellers willing to make concessions to sell their home. We’ve seen a huge increase in the number of buyers over the past few weeks and offers are being made and properties getting snatched up. Don’t wait for all the great deals to be gone, give your local real estate expert a call today to schedule a tour or search all the local MLS listings for free here.

4 Historic District Properties You Have to See
October 26th, 2007 All Articles, McClellanville Real Estate Daniel Bates 2 Comments
The US Forestry Service is moving its local Francis Marion headquarters from McClellanville to Huger. As a result they no longer need the several government owned properties used to house rangers and are selling them. These properties can’t be found using a regular MLS search, because they are not listed by a real estate agent and are instead being sold through an online auction by General Services Administration. Buying property via auction is different than typical real estate transaction, however the best way to look out for your best interest and make sure you are getting your money’s worth is to have a qualified buyer’s agent, such as myself, representing you in the transaction. If you are interested in seeing any of the following properties, I will be happy to arrange a showing and represent your interests throughout the transaction.
735 Morrison Street
Tidal Waterfront 1750 sq.ft.
Starting Bid of $650,000
Bid Increments of $20,000
161 Liberty Street

McClellanville Neighborhood Spotlight: Mouzon’s Bluff
October 13th, 2007 All Articles, Community Info, McClellanville Real Estate Daniel Bates 2 Comments
Welcome to Mouzon’s Bluff, A waterfront community on Skipper’s Point in McClellanville. Before I continue I feel it necessary to disclose that I am related to several property owners that have an interest in Mouzon’s Bluff. I also think it is necessary to share that I live here and think it is going to be a great community as more houses are built. While no other homes have been built, the initial phase of wooded lots sold quickly.
This new community maintains the casual way of life of McClellanville and preserves the natural beauty of the land. Large wooded lots are the perfect place to tuck your house in among the indigenous palmettos, oaks, and pines. Otter Creek winds through the development and offers homeowners a place to catch a glimpse of wildlife at the waters’ edge or launch a kayak and explore their surroundings. All lots will share access to a future community dock on the Intracoastal Waterway as well as green spaces and a natural park on Otter Creek.
The wooded lots are all an acre or more in size and surrounded by a beautiful natural setting. With the community dock and creekfront park, these lots truly offer owners an affordable options while still having access to the water.
The creekfront lots offer the view and enjoyment of the pristine Otter Creek at your back door. Enjoy crabbing, fishing, or even launch a canoe or kayak and go explore your natural settings in this quiet tidal creek. Boat access is possible from mid to high tide, however stationary docks are excluded in order to maintain the natural beauty of the area.
The lots on the Intracoastal Waterway have not yet been released, but the unspoiled view of the barrier islands of Cape Romain Wildlife Refuge is amazing. This land is much higher than most coastal property in McClellanville, because it has been built up from dredging the waterway, so the view from a raised home will be even better. The future homes here will enjoy great coastal breezes and easy access to the prime fishing grounds and tranquil beaches of Bulls Bay.

Have Your Next Home Find You
June 11th, 2007 All Articles, McClellanville Real Estate Daniel Bates No Comments
Are you tired of constantly searching MLS every week hoping to find something new that matches your criteria? What if you could have listings that match your criteria sent directly to your email account as soon as they it the market. From there, you can review the information and decide if you would like to schedule a showing of the property. If your tastes change or you are receiving emails about homes you aren’t interested in, the criteria can be modified to better suit your needs. Please note that signing up for this feature does not constitute a contract with myself or W.P. Baldwin & Associates, however I hope that you enjoy this feature and the rest of the website and return to us with your business. Also note that we are a small community with one or two new listings a week, so your email box will not be flooded with emails.
To receive automatic email notification of new listings that meet your needs you can either contact me with the information neccessary, if you use the contact form, be sure to put the following criteria in the comments box: Price range, Area (default area will be McClellanville, but I can enter any area in Charleston, Berkeley and Dorchester Counties), residential or vacant land, # bedrooms, and any specific requirements (i.e. waterfront, large acreage, historic, etc.). You can be as specific or as broad as you want, however if you say that you only want to see homes with 3 or more bedrooms than you won’t be notified of a 2 bedroom home with a family room that can double as a bedroom.
The second method involves a few more steps, but can be done on your own.
1) Click on “Home Search” under the “Properties” drop-down menu
2) Click “Your Account” at the top of the page and then “New Account”
3) Provide your primary email address and click “Register”
4) Check your email and you will have received an email with your new PIN #
5) Go back to the site and sign in using your email and PIN# (you may already be signed in)
6) Now you need to save a search(es) to receive new listings that meet those criteria sent to your email. The easiest way to do this is to use one of the pre-programmed searched I have created under the “Properties” drop-down menu. For instance, if you wanted to be notified whenever a new home comes on the market in McClellanville, click “Residential Listings” and then “Save Search”. You can name the search whatever you want. You will start receiving new listings in your email in the next few days. You can save multiple searches as well, for instance you can receive residential and vacant land listings, meaning you will know about everything that is coming on the market.
7) If you do not choose to use the custom searches provided, you can create your own, however I will warn you that the interface is not very user friendly and you may just want to email me your request and I will have it added to your account.
