5188 Timber Race Course

Welcome to 5188 Timber Race Course, a rare two-dwelling waterfront estate on just over two acres—a self-sustaining island oasis with all the conveniences of the prestigious Stono Ferry community nearby. Winding down the private peninsula driveway, you’ll be greeted by a tranquil koi pond before arriving at this serene retreat. Inside, expansive water views draw your eye to open living spaces anchored by a wood-burning fireplace. A chef’s kitchen and broad porches invite seamless indoor-outdoor living. From here, the primary suite flows gracefully into its own private wing, where the bedroom and spa-inspired bath create a secluded sanctuary apart from the main gathering spaces. This thoughtfully designed compound also features a second-floor gym overlooking the Stono River, complete with its own balcony for sunning and river breezes. Additional self-sufficient comforts include a gas-powered generator and a climate-controlled garage with stainless steel sink—ideal for gardening or dog washing. A private deep-water dock with lift and floating dock accommodates larger vessels, providing direct access to the Intracoastal Waterway via the Stono River—perfect for fishing, cruising to Charleston, or docking at Bohicket Marina. The detached guesthouse—approximately 800 square feet—offers a private haven with a full kitchen, bedroom, and living area, perfect for guests or multigenerational living. Beyond, irrigated raised beds support a true farm-to-table lifestyle. Ownership at Stono Ferry brings premier amenities: a championship golf course, equestrian facilities, junior Olympic pool, tennis and pickleball courts, clubhouse dining, walking trails, and the celebrated Charleston Cup Steeplechase. Live as if on your own private peninsula—while still connected to Charleston, Kiawah, shopping, dining, and the rich history and charm of the Lowcountry.
