Recreational Land & Farm for Sale in Ridgeland, South Carolina

Old Chelsea Homestead was once part of the Fields family's historical Chelsea Plantation. It offers incredible wildlife habitat diversity and a beautiful landscape, from magnificent sweeping live oaks to loblolly pines and a beautiful hardwood branch.

Old Chelsea Homestead has an abundance of wild turkeys and a very healthy, well-managed deer herd. It is situated between Bolan Hall Plantation, Chelsea Plantation, Hazzard Creek Plantation, Okatie Club, and is only a short ten-minute drive from the town of Okatie and all of its amenities. The hardwood branch running through the middle of the property provides excellent turkey roosting, deer bedding cover, and an abundance of quality mast-producing hardwoods perfect for bow hunting. The landscape is rich with diverse habitats, including mixed stands of pine and hardwoods that are seldom seen anymore.

Old Chelsea Homestead is conveniently located 6 miles from John Paul ll and 14 miles from Cross School, Hilton Head Christian Academy, and Bluffton High, offering a rare opportunity to be close enough to turn the property into a full-time residence. This property is a blank canvas with no improvements, allowing the new owner the freedom to craft their dream home or hunting compound.

The current zoning for Old Chelsea Homestead is very liberal, as this property has been fully entitled to an existing development agreement with Jasper County. This would be a rare opportunity for a conservation-minded buyer to capitalize on potential tax incentives by placing an easement on this historic property. The donor can design easements to allow for all historical usages but provide protection from development.
