Golf Course Communities in The Upstate of South Carolina

The Upstate is another name for the northwest corner of South Carolina situated in the foothills of the magnificent Blue Ridge Mountains. In the UpState, it seems city and country living become one. Beautifully serene, the picturesque landscape is complemented by an impressive array of metropolitan conveniences.

The Upstate is well-suited to a variety of outdoor activities. Our many lakes, parks, rivers and mountains provide endless opportunities - boating, fishing, picnicking, swimming, camping, and home to more than 80 golf courses.

Golf is one of the best reasons to visit the Upcountry. Easily accessible, the Upstate offers an un-crowded alternative with golf courses designed by renowned architects such as Jack Nicklaus, George Cobb, Gary Player, Willard Byrd and Tom Jackson. Gently rolling terrains set the tone for our golf courses, with changes in elevation ranging from gentle to drastic, providing the appeal of mountain golf but with milder weather.

There are many wonderful golf communities in the Upstate offering homes from the $150,000 to more than $3,000,000. Below you will find links to a few of these communities.

Golf is our Passion! If golf course living is what you want, please contact us for more information.

Downsizing can be a daunting thought!!

As many of us reach a time in our lives when either our children leave home to begin their new lives or we just don't want such a large home or yard to take care of anymore, we sometimes look to downsize. Downsizing could come in the form of a smaller home, a smaller lot or both. Redefining your needs for space and lifestyle can be challenging.

We work very closely with our clients to help them with their new definition of lifestyle as part of their new home search. Knowing how you wish to live during this next phase of your life is critical to finding that perfect home.

Downsizing means different things to different people and is lifestyle driven. You may be looking for less space, but how do you plan to use the space? Perhaps you're willing to give up the formal dining room you use only a few times a year for a media center. Perhaps that formal living room would make a great home office. Some may prefer a large shower over a tub/shower combination. And for many of us, we don't want to climb 5 or 6 steps to get into our home. Whatever your lifestyle needs, we can assist you in finding the right home in the right community.

The upstate offers a variety of downsizing options. They range from 2 bedroom bungalows, to 4 bedroom ranches. Homes range from 1400 square feet to over 3,000. You can purchase a home on a smaller lot that includes landscape maintenance and maintenance free exteriors, or a larger lot if that's your preference. There are Townhomes and condominiums in town or out of town. Amenities could include water access, pools, tennis courts, walking trails and golf courses. Convenient to excellent medical facilities and health care, the upstate offers a variety of communities where you can enjoy life to the fullest. Don't let downsizing be a daunting thought for you!
