Local Insight
At $1,907/sqft for a 1953 home, you're paying a premium that's really about the St. Armands waterfront location and direct water access rather than the structure itself—so factor in that this will likely need significant updates despite the "new construction" notation, which may refer to recent renovations. The AE flood zone is a real consideration here that will affect insurance costs and potential future resale appeal, especially at this price point. The tight 0.2-acre lot with a private pool means you're getting water views and access, but not much room to expand or add privacy screening if that matters to you.
