Carillon at The Ponds: Summerville
The Ponds is one of Summerville’s newest neighborhoods, and you’ll find 2 sections dedicated to buyers aged 55 or better. The first is Carillon, and it boasts 56 pre-owned homes in a gated section. Homeowners can enjoy the 1,100 acre preserve and 21 miles of nature trails within The Ponds. Few communities in Charleston have designated this type of space for preservation, so these unspoiled woodlands are quite unique. The Ponds hosts concerts at its amphitheater overlooking the lake and boasts impressive amenities such as a saltwater pool, 4,000 foot Farmhouse with hobby and game rooms, muscadine field, and fishing lakes. Carillon residents can access the amenities at The Ponds that are open to all residents, so know that these amenities will be shared with non-retirees. Some buyers enjoy this appeal since it gives them the retirement feel with Carillon neighbors but doesn’t separate them completely from residents aged 55+. However, other buyers looking for true 55 and over communities find the mixed amenities a drawback for Carillon.
Cresswind at The Ponds: Summerville
Cresswind is the second subsection of The Ponds dedicated to residents aged 55 plus. Cresswind buyers also have access to all of the amenities stated above. Here, you’ll find resales dating back to 2015 in addition to homes that are brand new construction.
