Welcome back, everyone! I thought that I would take a break this week from my continuing education series on how to refine your credit and then to determine if buying or renting is the best decision for one's current situation.
This week, I thought I'd focus on a subdivision that is within Summerville, SC: Cane Bay Plantation. Now, Cane Bay Plantation has been local, since forever. Just kidding. That is the supermarket Piggly Wiggly's marketing catch-phrase! Cane Bay Plantation has been around since 2007, though. When it was first developed, the local indigenous population thought it was built on the outskirts of nowhere. However, in six short years, oh, how that mindset has changed!
Cane Bay Plantation is 15 minutes from I26 (exit 199) and the plethora of shopping and restaurants at that interchange. Cane Bay Plantation is 15 minutes from the heart of Goose Creek, SC. Cane Bay Plantation is 15 minutes from the heart of downtown Moncks Corner. ...And that is where it sits right now! As I type and as you read, new construction (both residential AND commercial) are moving towards Cane Bay Plantation! The Daniel Island Company is currently developing a high-end community at Carnes Crossroads. Click here for more information. Also, MeadWestvaco is developing the Nexton Community, a 4500 acre live-work community that begins at exit 199 and will extend towards Cane Bay Plantation. Click here for more information about Nexton. There are also plans in the works within the SC DOT to create another interchange on I26 that will create a new road network to get to highway 176 and...that's right, you guessed it...it will lead one right to Cane Bay Plantation! The Charleston Post and Courier reports on this project, click here for details.
So, are you getting the picture? VERY soon, Cane Bay Plantation will be at the heart of everything. Perhaps in a year or two, Summerville, Goose Creek and Moncks Corner will be saying that they are 15 minutes from Cane Bay Plantation!
So, now that we have arrived at Cane Bay Plantation, what does it have to offer? Simply answered, "Pretty much everything!" Cane Bay's developers were forward thinking while in the development stages of planning this community. Three schools are found within the community itself: an elementary, middle and high school. These schools are all new and all beautiful. I've been inside the high school...it reminded me of a small college. Talk about preparing your child for the next level!
Within Cane Bay Plantation, you will find a wide variety of subsections, or neighborhoods, constructed by various prominent builders. Each subsection is it's own community...some with amenities, some without, some that are established and others that are just in the beginning "infancy"stages of development.
Upon entering Cane Bay Plantation on Cane Bay Blvd., the Old Rice Retreat neighborhood is one of the first communities that you arrive at AND one of the first communities to be built within the subdivision. Besides being established, this community offers to its residents a community pavilion, swimming pool, and walking/biking paved pathways. Centex is currently building new homes in the rear of the neighborhood and these home range from the low $170s to the $225k. They have six different floor plans to choose.
If new construction isn't your cup of tea...whether it be the overwhelming stress of dealing with builders and timelines (yes, it can be stressful, especially if you are a first time home buyer!), or perhaps you just do not have the luxury of time, then a resale could be just what you need!

Better yet, don't even bother with the searching...the house you want could be this one: 321 Deep River Road, MLS #1319876. $215,000 Check out below to learn the details of the home!

| Cane Bay Plantation ~ 321 Deep River Road ~ $215,000 |
AVAILABLE FOR IMMEDIATE OCCUPANCY!! If you have a desire to live in a
well sought after community with wonderful, new schools in a GREAT
location then look no further. Cane Bay Plantation has made a name for
itself because of well-built homes and having some of the best schools
in Berkeley county. From nearby walking trails to a refreshing community
pool that is literally around the corner, The Old Rice Retreat section
of the Cane Bay community has it all. The home at 321 Deep River is
subtly large with many individual living spaces that still give the
allusion of open spaces. The family can easily gather in the family
room, yet still have the feeling of togetherness through the open
kitchen while meals are being prepared (did I mention the stainless
steel appliances and gas stove?!). Depending on your mood, food can be
served in the formal dining room or in the eat-in area for a more
simplistic casual experience. A spacious loft can be found at the top of
the stairs. This area's uses are endless- it can be utilized as a home
office, playroom, reading area with natural lighting, or even a
secondary television area. Upstairs also features three large bedrooms
(including one of the master bedrooms). The second master bedroom can be
found downstairs. Beyond the patio sliding doors is a beautiful
pergola. Family get togethers around the grill can be enjoyed here while
the large, flat backyard is perfect for activities. Or, perhaps, one
could enjoy the quiet solitude of the evening sky sitting when sitting
below the pergola decorated with flowers and soft glowing lights.
FRESHLY PAINTED AND NEW CARPET THROUGHOUT!! This home has been
professionally decorated (the owner is an interior decorator)with
conveying custom draperies, designer paint, window treatments and
plantation shutters.
