Mansion Monday: A deepwater estate in Riverland Terrace is on the market for the first time in 70 years

The waterfront home in Riverland Terrace was owned by the Halsey family of WB Halsey Lumber Company.

Charming brick house with ivy, large windows glowing warmly. Set under a sunset sky with vivid pink and orange hues, framed by tall trees. Peaceful ambiance.

The Riverland Drive estate has entered the public market for the first time since it was built.

It’s like a Nancy Meyers movie come to life, think cozy-but-make-it-luxury — the kind of place where there’s always fresh flowers inside, and deep conversations happen around its big kitchen island.

Warm, cozy living room featuring a brick fireplace with a sailboat painting above, wicker sofa, blue armchairs, large windows, and built-in shelves.

Dibs on one of the blue chairs, it looks perfect for sitting and sipping a morning cup of coffee.

The waterfront, Riverland Terrace home was built in 1954 and boasts ivy-covered brick, crisp white trim, and sweeping oak trees give it a classic Southern vibe.

A luxurious brick house with large windows, surrounded by trees, features a serene backyard with a clear swimming pool, sun loungers, and an umbrella.

Now this is a backyard perfect for hosting summer gatherings.

The home spans 5,293 sqft, with four bedrooms and five-bathrooms. Did we mention the home has Old Charleston brick and custom kitchen countertops crafted from reclaimed timber salvaged from a lumber mill following Hurricane Hugo — oh yeah, and there’s a private dock with a 9,000-pound boat lift. Take a look inside.
