Homes for Sale In West Ashley Charleston SC with Greater Charleston Properties

Learn about the West Ashley area of Charleston and all it has to offer

The "West Ashley" area of Charleston is a happening, growing place. Located just west of downtown Charleston, in between the Stono River and the Ashley River, this area has becoming a hotspot for not only businesses and restaurants, but wonderful affordable home options. With older and new construction neighborhoods, just off I-526, it's not hard to see why many are flocking to this part of Charleston

There are many homes available, whether single family, townhomes, condos, or lots to build on. Read what one seller has to say about her West Ashley condo:
