Mount Pleasant SC Real Estate
The Town of Mount Pleasant today offers a lesson in our ability to build a better
tomorrow and better homes. One of the engineering wonders of our day, the Cooper
River Bridge Replacement Project is currently the largest construction project in
North America. This two-and-a-half-mile long, cable-stay beauty is expected to
open to traffic in the spring of 2005, much to the delight of area commuters.
The new bridge is a symbol of the vital connection between Charleston and the
burgeoning suburb of Mt. Pleasant, which has exploded in population during the
last two decades. Assuming a controlled-growth posture, town planners have
worked diligently to preserve Mount Pleasant's rich heritage and small-town
appeal, while allowing it to gain the positive attributes of a much larger city.
The charming Mount Pleasant Old Village, a National Register district,
features exquisite homes from both the colonial and antebellum periods,
while a multitude of surrounding communities provide the ultimate in modern
family living. Soccer fields, swimming pools and baseball diamonds, all
filled with the sounds of active children, form the center of many neighborhoods;
and Mount Pleasant's schools rank among the finest in the state.
Mount Pleasant offers a number of recreational areas offer
a variety of weekend and summertime opportunities. One of the most notable
is Palmetto Island County Park. With its 943 acres, this park provides a
multitutde of seasonal recreational activities in a natural Lowcountry setting.
Two of the area'ss most popular beaches are located a short drive away.
Mount Pleasant's appeal is not lost on active, sports-minded adults. In fact,
golf lovers can take advantage of four magnificent courses, each with its own
personality and set of challenges. Charleston National Country Club also hosts
the American Tour Golf School. Billed as the grad school for golfers, the
facility has developed a comprehensive program to help any serious golfer
take their game to the next level.
Fishing seems to be Mount Pleasants second most favorite pastime,
with expeditions for the big one's launched from backyard docks in the
many estuaries that surround the town. Dinner and a movie at Mount Pleasant
Towne Centre, the area's hottest new shopping area, is the perfect end to
any busy day.
