A Tennessee-based commercial developer and investment company has secured financing for an $88 million project in Summerville.

GBT Realty Corp. will build the latest housing development in Goose Creek in Summerville. GBT’s The Village at Carnes Crossroads brings 306 multifamily homes and over 11,000 square feet of retail to the heart of the Lowcountry lifestyle community, according to a news release.

GBT acquired the 11.82-acre site earlier this month from Carnes Crossroads Association, the master developer of Carnes Crossroads, according to a news release. JLL Capital Markets arranged construction financing with Bank of America and Meta Real Estate Partners. JLL’s Managing Directors Matt Stewart and Chip Sykes, and Director Wyatt Strahan represented GBT Realty.

“This is a lifestyle community that epitomizes the best of southern living,” said Barry Yoeckel, vice president, multifamily development, GBT Realty, in the release. “The Village adds a living environment that appeals to young professionals, growing families and empty nesters alike. We designed and planned our community to enhance and connect with the surrounding Carnes Crossroads neighborhoods.”

The rental homes are located at the intersection of Highway 17-A and Third Avenue, immediately across from The Marketplace at Carnes Crossroads, a Publix-anchored mixed-use development that is currently under construction.

The development team includes Atlanta-based Dynamik Design, Thomas & Hutton (civil engineering) and Samet Corporation (general contractor).

“Our plans feature upscale homes and best-in-class amenities that stretch across 11 buildings on the site,” Yoeckel said.

Floorplans offer a mix of studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom units with upscale finishes, the release stated. Community amenities include separate small- and large-breed dog parks, a resort-style saltwater pool with lounge deck, an outdoor kitchen set on a community lawn, a club room with catering kitchen and golf stimulator, a state-of-the-art fitness complex and a co-working center. A coffee purveyor is set to bring classic specialties to The Village as well as the community at large.

The first units are expected to be available spring 2025.

The city of Goose Creek is the most populated city in Berkley County. And with a tight-knit community, beautiful outdoor attractions and a great location with close proximity to Charleston, the city’s population continues to grow and thrive.

Goose Creek was officially founded in 1961, but its early history dates back to the beginning of the Carolina colony. The city was a waterway at the time, and the name “Goose Creek” likely originated due to the curved shape of its creeks and waters, similar to that of a goose’s neck.

The first inhabitants of the Goose Creek territory were the Eitwan and Sewee Indian tribes, and European settlers then arrived in the early 1670s. The rich soil of the area along the Cooper River attracted wealthy planters from the British Caribbean colony of Barbados, including Sir John Yeamans and Sir Peter Colleton.

The region of Goose Creek became known as home to the “Goose Creek Men.” These men established a trade route with the Native Americans, trading goods from cloth to guns and ammunition.

The Goose Creek Men were known for questioning higher authority of the Lord Proprietors in the colony, and they eventually undermined the hierarchy, gaining a majority in the Commons House of Assembly.

The majority of white inhabitants of Goose Creek practiced Anglicanism, but many Huguenots were established there after 1700, including the Izard family on the Elms plantation. The Anglican Parish of St. James Goose Creek was established in 1706 and completed in 1719 by a small group of planters.

St. James Church still stands today and is one of the oldest surviving buildings in South Carolina and one of the only surviving Georgian chapels in the nation.

By the eighteenth century, Goose Creek was a prosperous and popular area for rice production. The town continued to experience population growth, measuring a population of 2,787 in the first U.S. census in 1790. 2,333 members of that population were slaves who harvested the rice plantations.

Goose Creek remained prosperous for rice production into the nineteenth century, with the eventual demise of rice plantations after the Civil War led to the abolishment of slavery. Hurricanes eventually wiped out the remains of rice fields across South Carolina. The area became desolate and as a result, the population decreased heavily.

In the twentieth century, wealthy northerners bought land in Goose Creek to inhabit during winters. They moved to the area to hunt. The United States Ammunition Depot was established near Goose Creek, later becoming the Naval Weapons Annex in 1959.

These new establishments brought growth to Goose Creek, resulting in the need for the town to become incorporated. The town of Goose Creek was incorporated in 1961. The population underwent a surge in numbers, from 3,656 in 1970 to 17,811 by 1980, making it the largest city in Berkeley County.

The town continues to grow steadily. In 2021, its population clocked in at 46,229. The city is an attractive destination for future homeowners, boasting award-winning schools, recreational activities and a close proximity to the city of Charleston and coastal beaches. Goose Creek also hosts many events and takes pride in offering their residents the ability to live, work and raise families in the town’s borders.

A new residential development slated for the northern edge of Goose Creek could bring nearly 1,000 new housing units.

South Carolina’s eighth-largest city is poised to annex a 515-acre parcel on U.S. Highway 52 north of Medway Road, where new single-family homes would be built.

Goose Creek also plans to change the land use on 37 acres between Medway and Montague Plantation roads to allow a mixed-use development.

The larger property, called the Medway Tract, would include 425 single-family houses and 200 age-restricted homes.

The smaller Monarch Tract could have 240 apartments, 71 townhomes and 53,000 square feet of commercial space.

The projects are part of the Laurel Bay planned development making its way through the city approval process.

The 515-acre parcel is owned by Rye-Build LLC of Florida, which paid $4 million for the Medway Tract in 2021, according to Berkeley County land records.

The smaller site would include a commercial development with 46,000 square feet of retail space, including a 30,000-square-foot grocery store and 7,000 square feet set aside for office space. It would sit off Montague Plantation Road at Orangetip Drive.

The small commercial node, which includes the proposed multifamily structures, is currently zoned for general commercial use. The developer, Eastwood Construction Partners, is asking to change that to a planned development as part of the Laurel Bay project.

Homes would not be built on the entire 515-acre Medway parcel. Plans show residences on about 258 acres since part of the tract is wetlands, some of which the city is asking to be placed under a conservation easement.

Eastwood Homes is expected to develop most of the single-family homes, according to Goose Creek Mayor Greg Habib. Sunburst Properties of Tallahassee will likely build planned patio homes.

“It’s going to be a really nice neighborhood with a lot of open space,” Habib said.

Eastwood division president Dion Matheney expects construction on homes to begin in about 24 months. The townhome development is already under construction on the smaller parcel.

“We are trying to get the planned unit development approved for the density and will then start working on the design when we know how many homes will be allowed,” Matheney said.

He also noted some commercial development will occur in the initial phase as the homes in Laurel Bay begin construction.

Habib said the proposed expansion of Goose Creek’s borders is in keeping with his administration’s goal to attract more economic activity to the city of about 48,000 residents.

“Growth is absolutely necessary,” he said. “Until someone invents an economy not based on growth, that’s what we have. You have to grow. It’s how we continue to provide services at a high level.”

He said the city has been working with the developer for about two years to come up with a design that minimizes the effects of additional traffic, phases in commercial development and calls for a higher design standard than what’s required under the existing rules.

The commercial area, including a future supermarket, “is absolutely something we want there,” Habib said. “We’ve had conversations with three potential grocers, but nothing to announce. It’s still early.”

The town’s economic development director also cited the importance of growing the city and adding commercial entities to its northern sector.

“On that side of town, we don’t have many grocery stores or retail,” Rob Wiggins said. “It’s important for those people who live there so they won’t have to go down the road to another grocery store and add to the traffic already on the road. ...We don’t want any part of the city to feel neglected.”

City Council is expected to take up the second of two required votes on Nov. 14. Initial approval was granted in September.

The Goose Creek Planning Commission unanimously approved the project Oct. 3.
