FrontDoor Communities Experiences Exceptional Growth in Charleston

Builder on track to sell 49 homes in 2015; 93 homes in 2016

FrontDoor Communities has made an incredible impact on the Charleston real estate market in just five short years. With 49 expected closings in 2015, the most of any market FrontDoor builds in, sales are forecasted to nearly double in 2016.

FrontDoor Communities is selling new homes at Freeman’s Point on James Island, Carolina Park and Tributary, which is nearing closeout. In addition, FrontDoor Communities was chosen as just one of four approved builders for Summers Corner, further attesting to the respect and growth the builder has seen in Charleston.

FrontDoor’s unique building process includes taking the time to design each Lowcountry home to meld with the characteristics of its home site. Homes are designed to ensure that owner’s suites and main living areas take advantage of the fantastic views, while porches and other outdoor living spaces are oriented to maximize coastal breezes by facing south or west.

“One of the features that I think makes a FrontDoor home unique is its deceptive size,” said Mark Lipsmeyer, division vice president for FrontDoor Communities. “Our homes appear much larger than they actually are because they’re designed to take advantage of every square inch of usable space. This reduces the footprint of each home while still giving families plenty of space to enjoy their life in the home.”

FrontDoor Communities offerings in the Charleston market include:
