Property Description
Poco Sabo's mature mixed hardwood and pine forests also harbor abundant deer, turkey and other wildlife. A large section of timber located across Bennetts Point Road has sandy soils and high elevationsufficient for pre-season quail release with potential to manage for wild coveys. Twelve acres of fields with faux power lines have been planted for the 2025-2026 dove season.
Lying in a freshwater zone of the Ashepoo River and containing several ponds, Poco Sabo enjoys exceptional access to bass, bream and catfish. As for boating, there is currently a landing on Beef Creek which can be used by smaller vessels. There is also the ability to construct a deepwater dock directly on the Ashepoo River.
Like many desirable Lowcountry plantation homes, the main house at Poco Sabo was constructed on a bluff, set back from any roads and carefully situated to take advantage of the prevailing breeze. The driveway leading to the residence passes through a grove of ancient live oak trees and is flanked by fenced horse pasture and a pecan orchard. The home is ideally positioned for sunrise views over an old rice impoundment, the vista extending out toward an unbroken ribbon of wetland, forest and sky. On the terrace, one can sit and enjoy the gentle westerly winds; or just steps away is the adjacent azalea garden, whose riotous bloom provides a burst of color every March and April.
Built in 1934, the main house at Poco Sabo was designed by the Charleston-based architectural firm of Simons & Lapham, known for their restoration of historic homes in the area - including Charleston's Rainbow Row and Dock Street Theater. Though originally intended as a humble hunting lodge, the house today stands as a grand structure at 6,227 square feet with four en suite bedrooms and two half baths. It is fortified with a standing seam metal roof and beaded shiplap cypress siding. Significant additions include an east and west wing, two sunrooms extending toward the house pond, and a handsome portico over the entrance.
Perhaps most importantly, Poco Sabo sets the stage for quintessential Lowcountry entertaining and hospitality. Beginning in the main house with its authentic cypress-paneled billiards room, expansive views from large windows and French doors, gracious formal dining room, intimate library, modern office and more, guests immediately feel a sense of history, comfort and home. Conveniently, there is a primary bedroom downstairs on the east wing and three en suite bedrooms upstairs. The west wing functions as an informal entrance, starting with the large mud roomcharacterized by green-painted beadboard and red brick flooring. It is here that firearms are secured and every type of recreational equipment is stored. The mud room leads into a series of refreshment and utility rooms, then into the main kitchen and eventually into the main living area. Two delightful enhancements to the amenities at Poco Sabo were recently established: a brick fitness studio and a Hartley English greenhouse.
A lovely three-bedroom guest house and a two-bedroom cottage offer separate, stand-alone quarters for visitors. In addition, there is a manager's house and a newly built one-bedroom cottage, overlooking a tidal pond on the Ashepoo River, which also serves as a private art studio.
The outbuildings at Poco Sabo provide ample space and function for all the necessary recreational and land management activities associated with a plantation. There is a multipurpose barn with six horse stalls, a tack room and a hay loft. The barn also has two walk-in coolers, a cleaning station with sink, several drive-in doors, a large workshop area, a fully equipped manager's office, and an open concrete pad. Additionally, there is a large equipment lean-to, and a utility building with eight run-in dog kennels attached.
