    What's special

    Set on 5.98A± acres in the heart of Dorchester County, South Carolina, this brick home offers space, versatility, and a collection of outbuildings, making it well-suited to a variety of uses. Located at 486 Sandhill Rd, the property sits along a quiet county road corridor in the community of Dorchester, positioned between St. George and Ridgeville off US Highway 78 in the South Carolina Lowcountry. The main residence has been thoughtfully expanded over the years. The original garage was converted into a formal living room, and a large family room and den were added, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace. This addition also brought a two-car garage, a half-bath, and a spacious primary suite complete with a soaking tub, separate shower, and private toilet area. In total, the brick home offers four bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and two half-bathrooms, giving it a generous footprint for buyers who want room to spread out. The kitchen and formal dining room are separated by a door, preserving a distinct, traditional layout rather than an open-concept floor plan. A new roof was installed in 2018, a meaningful update for any buyer evaluating the home's condition and remaining service life. Beyond the main house, the 5.98A± acres include a working collection of outbuildings that speak to the property's agricultural and hobby farm history. A horse stable with four stalls sits alongside a separate shed used for hay storage that includes two additional stalls, together offering space for six stalls total across the two structures. A dog kennel with more than ten runs points to prior use for boarding, breeding, or training operations. The property also includes a silo and a building formerly used to incubate bird eggs, both reflecting the working, rural character of this Dorchester County tract. It's worth noting plainly: the outbuildings have not been used in several years, so buyers should plan to assess their current condition and any work needed to bring them back into service. Rounding out the property is a 1993 mobile home, a second dwelling that adds real flexibility for extended family, rental income, farm help, or a caretaker's residence. The mobile home includes washer and dryer connections in the kitchen, a primary suite with a bedroom and a full bath, two additional bedrooms, and an additional bathroom, giving it a complete, livable layout of its own. All items and structures on the property will be sold as-is, and this acreage, combined with a primary residence, six stalls of horse and livestock infrastructure, a kennel, and a second dwelling, makes this a rare offering for buyers looking for a small Lowcountry acreage with room for horses, hobby livestock, or simply the space and outbuildings to build out their own use. Its location in Dorchester County places it within reach of St. George, Ridgeville, Harleyville, and the growing Summerville area, while still offering the acreage and quiet setting that draws buyers out of town.
