Why it matters here
Most of the Charleston area's horse property is on Johns and Wadmalaw islands, out toward Hollywood and Ravenel, around Awendaw and up near Moncks Corner. Horses come down to zoning, HOA rules and enough usable high ground, so the listing alone won't tell you.

Closed residential sales in the CHS Regional MLS, November 2025 through October 2026, pulled November 8, 2026 through Flexmls. Counted where the listing marked AssociationAmenities = Horses OK. Agents don't always fill in these fields, so treat the counts as a floor. Areas are MLS cities or ZIP codes; the table shows the areas I track, not every sale region-wide. Only listings in neighborhoods that mark "horses OK" as an amenity show up here, so this undercounts rural land with no HOA at all, where horses are often allowed by county zoning.
What to check before you buy
Read the zoning and the covenants
County agricultural and rural zoning usually allows horses; many subdivisions don't, or cap the number. Get the restrictive covenants and the county zoning for the parcel before you write the offer.
Walk the high ground
Low pasture here can stay wet for weeks after a big rain. Look at the land after a storm if you can, and check the flood zone and wetlands.
Check fencing, barns and permits
Ask whether the barn and any fencing were permitted, and what shape they're in. Replacing fencing on acreage adds up fast.
