Hobcaw Creek Plantation is named for the tidal creek which borders the south side of this established neighborhood. The main street, Hobcaw Bluff Drive, winds around from the front of the community to the creek. Another main road, Palisades Drive, loops back to the front, and many small streets form quiet cul-de-sacs. Chimney Bluff Drive forks off of Hobcaw Bluff and stretches over a bridge and back towards Hobcaw Creek. The neighborhood was developed in the late 1990's, and there are now close to 260 homes. Large oak trees, established landscaping, and winding roads are typical of Hobcaw Creek Plantation.

Olde Park is located off Mathis Ferry Road, just minutes from downtown Charleston. In the 1990's Joseph Griffith and Joseph Rice envisioned a neighborhood boasting historic Lowcountry aesthetics while capturing today's lifestyle. From this dream came Olde Park, a 90+ acre community with 114 homesites, ponds, green spaces, and mini-parks. Around four acres of parks were selected to preserve the century oaks and surrounding natural beauty. There are close to five acres of ponds, providing spectacular home settings. Tree-lined streets and sidewalks meander throughout the pedestrian-friendly neighborhood. Beautiful, distinctly southern architecture is found t...
Hobcaw is the native American word for land between the waters. The name is a perfect fit for this beautiful neighborhood which has two tidal creeks (Molasses and Hobcaw) as its borders that flow into the Wando River.
Historically, this area was once the base for production of timber and building of ships, particularly during the colonial era. Hobcaw later became the hub of Charleston's city powder magazines. Now, the quiet and natural ambiance is evident despite the rapid changes happening around Mount Pleasant.
A beautiful and established neighborhood, Hobcaw Point, is one of Mount Pleasant's favorite communities for water lovers. Some of the homes hav...

I'On was named after Jacob Bond I'On, the first mayor of nearby Sullivan's Island. In the northwest part of the neighborhood there is a public one acre family cemetery with a monument to I'On that was erected in the 19th century.
I'On was designed on the principles of New Urbanism and Traditional Neighborhood Development: mixed-use, walkable neighborhoods with open space and access to recreational amenities. It was founded in 1995 and the first home was completed in 1999. The architecture of most homes is heavily influenced by downtown Charleston. The homes are on small lots and have wide front porches inviting nei...
YELP ranked Charleston as the 5th Best City for Economic Opportunity. You may view YELP as simply a place to review a dry cleaner or to rant about the service or product in a local business, but the company says it can use its thirteen year stash of information to decide where to open a business. It’s a novel approach to measuring economic growth, but Harvard Business School says their findings closely match.
The Johns Island Community Association has asked for a six month moratorium on new permits for residential units. 2017 was the busiest year ever for Charleston real estate with almost 18k sales

Year-over-year inventory levels have been down in most markets for several years now, and that trend is expected to persist in 2018. Consumers are still purchasing for the first time and relocating to other, presumably more ideal homes.
Having the financial ability to make a move clearly seems feasible to many eager buyers amidst a healthy economy, whether life events such as marriage, children, employment change or desirable downsizing is the reason for moving.
There are further positive signs on the horizon, as bui...

I LOVE Shem Creek. It is one of my favorite all time places to be!
While driving over the Shem Creek bridge towards downtown Charleston you are sure to notice the docks on the right. These docks are in Millwood, a small and unique neighborhood with just sixteen homes. Turn right onto Pelzer and you will find yourself on the tree lined street where some of the homes were built in the 60's and 70's. Don't blink, because once you cross the first intersection (and you are still on Pelzer) it turns into Cooper Estates. See the visual below. The yellow numbers mark Millwood ho...
