New Construction Cost Guide for Bohicket Marina Village, SC

Bohicket Marina Village is a gated villa community on Bohicket Creek built out in the early 1980s, so most projects here are renovations of existing units rather than ground-up builds. That changes the cost math from what you'd budget on a raw Johns Island lot.

ARB Approval Adds a Cost and Timeline Layer

Structural changes, rewiring, repiping, or additions of substantial weight need Architectural Review Board sign-off before work starts. Purely cosmetic updates skip this step, but confirm which category your project falls into before you price it out.

The 50% Rule Can Force a Full Flood-Code Upgrade

If a renovation's cost reaches half the structure's assessed value, county rules can require bringing the entire unit up to current flood elevation standards. On creek-front villas built in the 1980s, this threshold is worth checking before you finalize scope.

Two Governments Sign Off Before Work Begins

Projects here typically need a Town of Seabrook Island zoning permit followed by a Charleston County building permit. Budget extra lead time for this two-step sequence rather than assuming a single approval covers you.
