Irvin-House Vineyards Released to Market for First Time

CHARLESTON, S.C. - June 15, 2015 - PRLog -- Wadmalaw Island, SC (June 15, 2015) - Daniel Ravenel Sotheby’s International Realty announced today that they are listing 50 acres on Wadmalaw Island, a property known as Irvin-House Vineyards.  Since 2001, owners have harvested Muscatine grapes here and have attracted Charleston locals and visitors alike to their tasting room, winery, and gift shop.

In addition to the vineyard and related structures, Irvin-House Vineyards offers a 4,200 SqFt residence on the property, renovated in 2000.  There are also a number of pastures and fields ideal for additional homes and outbuildings. Boasting many historic live oaks and surrounded by conservation land, this property also offers deer hunting and fly-fishing in the stocked freshwater pond. The mature grape vines on site are well manicured and ready to produce a first class wine for the new vineyard operators.

Known for tastings, annual blessing of the vines, music performances, vineyard tours, and the annual Grape Stomping Festival, Irvin-House Vineyards has become a must-see destination for Charleston visitors and locals alike.  Last year over 40,000 people visited this self-sustaining winery. Opened as the retirement project of locals Ann and Jim Irvin, the vineyard fast grew into a full wine making business with impressive bottle sales and annual visitor numbers. This was also the site of the original Firefly Distillery. While no Firefly operations are included in the sale, the existing zoning and covenants on the property allows for a distillery operation to exist on site should a new owner choose.
