Description
Bay-front coastal home with dock.

Fish and crab right from your dock or head out into world class fishing waters on your schedule. The St. James Island home straddles two lots providing added privacy and seclusion from neighbors and roadways. An irrigation system with its own private well on the property ensures the mature native plantings including azaleas (wild and propagated), camelias, figs, hurricane and varieties of lilies, coontie palms, and loquats) remain healthy, happy, and enjoyable.

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageHave 2 students who attend school there. The academics or lack there of are embarrassing at . The administration lies as opposed to dealing with the actual issues. The staff turnover has to be one of the highest in the state and the lack of certified teachers is alarming. They do a lot of things wrong and it appears they are aware and don’t care. If you want your child to succeed at college and in life Franklin County isn’t going to provide them the skills they need.Parent Review2y ago - Franklin Virtual Instruction Program

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is powered by K-12 and is a great, advanced option for public school at home. The curriculum is challenging and thorough for my kids and I highly recommend this alternative to parents that want to excel.Parent Review9y ago
