Jenkins Point is very special to me. It was my first large scale subdivision. I all started in 1999 when a good friend's father approached me about helping him sell his 32 acre estate on the headwaters of West Bank Creek. I encouraged him to let me assist him in developing it himself. He was not interested in the hassles of dealing with Charleston County. He just wanted me to sell it to someone who would do the development correctly. That is exactly what I did. I had a life long relationship with The Stephens Land Company who was known for their eco-friendly projects in Dorchester County and even Charleston County in recent years. They had the expertise and financial ability to untake new regulations and infastructure that Charleston County had implemented in their new land use plan.
Jenkins Point is rich in history, natural beauty, and very secluded. Nestled between Oak Island Plantation and The Seabrook Mansion (AKA Dodge Plantation). Both of these historic plantation are protected by conservation easements. Steamboat Landing Boat Ramp is only 2 miles away, which gives you access to everything the ACE Basin has to offer. Each of the Thirty-One lots has something special to offer, from marsh views, tidal creek access, or huge grand oaks.
According to an original plat, Jenkins Point was the eastern boundary of Chaplin Garden, 432 acres of William Seabrook's Plantation characterized by its magnificent mansion, formal gardens, and oak-lined drive. The most wealthy plantation owner on Edisto Island, William Seabrook pioneered the use of salt marsh mud as fertilizer and developed the steamboat line connecting Charleston and Savannah. During the Civil War Seabrook Mansion served as the Union Army Headquarters while Edisto was occupied. The Seabrook family has claimed ownership to many of Edisto's other plantations, including Oak Island, Old House, Cassina Point, SeaCloud, Gun Bluff, Seaside, and Edisto Beach until the 1920s
