Preview of the 2024 Master-Planned Community Tours

 

 

 

 

One of the best-selling communities in the country according to RCLCO’s Top-Selling Master-Planned Community Report, Nexton blends modern amenities with the timeless charm of the Charleston Lowcountry. Residents of all ages and stages of life are catered to within Nexton’s thoughtfully designed neighborhoods which feature a diverse array of homes crafted by renowned builders. After eleven years and 2,500+ homes delivered, Nexton now offers more than 120 shops, eateries and offices, acres of parks and preserved open space, two grocery stores, an elementary and middle school, state-of-the-art amenities, and event programming for its more than 10,000 residents. Its vibrant Town Center serves as a bustling hub of activity, while its convenient location in Summerville near Interstate-26 places it within an easy commute of Downtown Charleston. According to Cassie Cataline, Marketing Director at Nexton, “[Nexton’s] focus on segmentation has been a crucial part of achieving sales success, in a location with strong employment and a climate that attracts retirees. Establishing a walkable community with vibrant retail and amenity programming has helped foster a lifestyle that buyers continue to be attracted to.”

What to expect

A presentation on the history and evolution of Nexton from Brent Gibadlo, Senior Vice President at Brookfield Properties, who has helped shepherd the growth of the community from its beginning, when he served as the Director of Real Estate Development for Meadwestvaco. Following the presentation, the group will have an opportunity to tour the community and see the unique offerings available in Nexton’s 100-acre downtown and numerous mixed-use villages.

Daniel Island is an award-winning, mixed-use master-planned community at the heart of the metro-Charleston region. This scenic island town is home to diverse residential neighborhoods, a downtown with shops and restaurants, corporate offices, hotels, a professional sports facility, schools, churches, and resort-style amenities. A diverse offering of properties makes Daniel Island one of the best communities in Charleston for a wide variety of residents, from single professionals and young families to empty-nesters and retirees. Residents of all ages have come from around the country to make their home here, drawn by the island’s natural beauty, welcoming neighbors, and an endless array of amenities and conveniences, all within just 15 minutes of historic Charleston, SC.

What to expect

Lunch will be served at the Daniel Island Club, followed by a presentation and guided tour by the President of The Daniel Island Company, Matt Sloan, who has led the development of Daniel Island since 1993. Matt will share lessons learned and critical success factors over his 30+ years with the community. In addition, the group will be treated to a presentation of The Waterfront Daniel Island, a luxurious condominium and townhome community developed by East West Partners.

Nestled on the banks of the picturesque Hobcaw Creek, I’on stands as one of the best, and one of the first, examples of a New Urbanist Traditional Neighborhood Development (TND) style community in the country. With its tree-lined streets, waterfront views, and pristine green spaces, I’on boasts a diverse selection of homes designed to create a welcoming and idyllic environment for residents. From cozy cottages to waterfront estates, each home reflects the community’s status as a New Urbanist gem, committed to architectural excellence and the highest-level of craftsmanship.

What to expect 

A walking tour of the community led by LeGrande Elebash, a native Charlestonian, former COO of The I’on Group, and current resident of I’on. LeGrande will share how a formerly controversial concept evolved into one of the nation’s most iconic new communities of the past 30 years.
