4 Rural McClellanville Real Estate Listings that Deserve a Look
April 30th, 2010 Buyers, Mouzons Bluff, Silver Hill Daniel Bates Comments
Today I have the pleasure of bringing you 4 W.P. Baldwin & Associates real estate listings of mine located in rural McClellanville. They are all just across Jeremy Creek from the Historic District in the peaceful Skipper’s Point community (map below). I’m talking dirt road, wooded, peaceful, country retreats and all still in the town limits and just 5 minutes to the restaurants and boat landing. There is something for everyone that appreciates rural living at it’s best.
514 Romain Road – $940,000
First up is a brand new listing just added this week. It’s a gorgeous 4 bedroom, 4 bath waterfront home with over 150 feet of frontage on Jeremy Creek and a large deep-water dock. It’s the prettiest lot in all of McClellanville with 4 massive live oaks on a spacious lot. The nearly 2800 square feet feel much more spacious with a very open floor plan that will accommodate any number of needs. I’ve been managing this house as a vacation rental for the last 3 years and would be happy to continue for new owner.
8 Mouzons Bluff – $69,500
Looking for an affordable lot to build you home in McClellanville? This lot is build-ready and is the cheapest 1+ acre lot in McClellanville town limits. Amazingly, it is also located in Mouzons Bluff community which entitles it to use of the future community dock on the Intracoastal Waterway and park on Otter Creek, just walking distance from this lot. Now that’s value!
22 Mouzons Bluff – $100,000
This is the lowest priced waterfront lot in the McClellanville and Awendaw real estate market. It’s 3/4 of an acre and has over 100 feet of frontage on Otter Creek. You can watch wildlife and launch a kayak from your own back yard. Just like 8 Mouzons Bluff, this lot will also have access to the future community dock on the Intracoastal Waterway. So for just $30k more you’re upgrading to waterfront!
3 Romain Road – $480,000
Waterfront lots are a commodity in McClellanville and this one is the lowest priced lot on deep-water in McClellanville. It has a view of the Intracoastal Waterway, Cape Romain Wildlife Refuge and the Cape Romain lighthouse. In addition to being on Jeremy Creek, this lot is also bounded on one side by Otter Creek. If you’ve been waiting for affordable waterfront property with immediate access to prime fishing and boating grounds, this is your chance.
Please feel free to call me for a private tour of any or all of these beautiful properties – Daniel Bates - 843-606-0622

Plane in Jeremy Creek
August 23rd, 2010 Buyers Daniel Bates Comments
I got a phone call Saturday morning telling me that I should go down to the dock of Palmer’s Point and take a look across the creek. You can imagine my surprise when I saw a plane pulled up at Leland Marine next to the typical array of of yachts, house boats, shrimp boats, and barges. McClellanville’s local librarian, Pat Gross shared a few more pictures of the plane actually cruising down the creek and taking off and the heart-touching story behind the pilot.

“The New Daughter” Finally Released
May 25th, 2010 McClellanville News Daniel Bates Comments
Lights, Camera, Action!
More than two years after the filming of The New Daughter in McClellanville it has finally been released on DVD after witnessing brief and very limited theater screenings. I got a copy over the weekend and while I’m not going to become a movie critic here, I will tell you that I enjoyed it. Having met the two child actors that play Costner’s children, I have to say what a great job they both did. Ivana Baquero, who speaks with no noticeable accent despite English being her second language, should definitely be admired for her title role. Kevin Costner never disappoints (I even liked Waterworld) but I don’t think that the script gave any of the characters much depth. The Wedge and it’s surroundings, where most of the movie was filmed, are quite scenic but and also creepy at night. In case you’re not aware, let me just warn everyone that this isn’t Dances with Wolves, it’s a horror movie. Here’s the official trailer. Note that Costner says “Real-a-tor”, a pet peeve of all Realtors®, since it’s not a real word.
If scary movie’s aren’t your cup of tea, then you won’t enjoy this movie despite your love of seeing McClellanville on the big screen TV. So if it’s not something for you, I thought I’d share a few shots of McClellanville from the film with you so that you don’t feel like you missed out. Like most movies a lot of shots wound up on the cutting room floor. I didn’t spot anyone from McClellanville although I’m told that one of the dead bodies is Emmy Bronson (but correct me if I’m wrong) I also didn’t see any shots of the Arts Council which was supposed to have been transformed into the police station (see photo above), but here is what I did noticed:

McClellanville Transformed into a Winter Wonderland…for a Brief Moment
February 13th, 2010 McClellanville News Daniel Bates Comments
As we walked out of T.W. Graham’s restaurant Friday night the snow had just began to fall in McClellanville. By 9pm the power had gone out and the snow had started to accumulate. We passed the time reading books by candlelight and awoke to a cold house (still no power) and a blanket of snow covering everything. This was the first real snow since the Christmas after Hugo in 1989, so this was quite a rarity.
We built a quick snowman and went to explore the village. A few children and adults were venturing out. Snowmen spotted the land but by the afternoon they were nearly all that remained; a brief reminder of the snow that was. We spent the day with my parents playing Scrabble and talking around the fire and were actually a little dissappointed when the power finally returned in the late afternoon and our excuse to hangout melted away.
Here are just a few of the pictures that I took around McClellanville. The parade of snowmen is at the end. Which is your favorite? If I missed yours and you want to have it included you can email it to daniel (at) mymcclellanville.net
