About This Home

As of May 2023

With an address that sounds like the story line of a movie, your best life awaits you here at 17 Sorento.Draped with Lowcountry moss, the mature Oaks and soon-to-bloom Crepe Myrtle trees adorn the streets and homes of this hidden gem community. Residents of this established neighborhood are greeted each day with picturesque views and countless serenading birds.Located just 11 miles from downtown Charleston, 5 minutes from Interstate-26, Charleston Southern University, Trident Hospital, and numerous medical facilities and restaurants, convenience is literally at your fingertips in this home. Even if you feel the need for some retail therapy, Target, Hobby Lobby, Dillards, and numerous other stores are all within a 5 drive as well.

While there are recorded covenants for the neighborhood, there is NO mandatory HOA- there's simply a nominal and voluntary fee if residents wish to contribute.

With that, investors should know this home is eligible to operate as a short-term-rental/Airbnb. Any buyer should always verify this information for themselves but a recent check in with zoning confirmed that only a business license is needed to operate this home as a short-term-rental.

For those seeking a place for themselves to call home, it should be noted that this neighborhood is currently zoned for the most sought after Hanahan schools and is truly a turn-key purchase.

This home has undergone some extensive renovations within the past few years. The current owners initially planned on this being their forever home but unfortunately need to relocate to assist with family.

Updates to this home include:

2022 - In-ground, heated, fiberglass, salt water pool.
2022 - Previous patio removed and new poured patio was added.

2019 - New sewage line running from the home to the street.
2017 - New roof.
The home also has newer garage doors which were added prior to the sellers ownership.

While the home is absolutely beautiful, the backyard is a prize of its own. Boasting just under half an acre, the old oak tree serves as a focal point for the yard. Whether you're enjoying the pool, the tree swing, the fire pit, or even playing in the stream just off the back of the property, the sunsets here are sure to be some of your most relaxing and most memorable. It is truly so spacious, peaceful and private. It's the perfect place to relax or host guests and parties.

In addition to the large backyard, the current owners also love that they can walk, ride, or take the golf cart to nearby Venice Park, just at the end of the street at Sorento & Venice. Here, residents enjoy fishing, kayaking from the launch, playing in the large field, or eating a packed picnic in the covered pavilion.
Though this home is positioned within walking distance to the water, the home does NOT require flood insurance currently and is optional. The owners said they have never experienced any issues with the water or flooding.

17 Sorento offers a lifestyle worth living. Whether you're approaching retirement, just starting out with your first home, growing in size, or seeking a turn-key investment, this home checks all of the boxes.

Homes in Otranto offer tons of character and tend to move quickly so we encourage you to book your showing soon!

**While dates are negotiable, the seller would prefer to stay in the home until June 30th or so.**
