AND WHAT IS ONE NEXTON ANYWAYS?

Exploring the Thriving Business Landscape of Nexton Summerville, SC in 2024

Nestled in the heart of the charming town of Summerville, South Carolina, Nexton has been steadily growing as a vibrant community that seamlessly combines residential, commercial, and recreational spaces. As we step into 2024, it's exciting to see how Nexton continues to evolve, especially in areas like Nexton One Center and the realm of Nexton real estate. In this blog post, we'll take a closer look at the new businesses that have sprung up in Nexton Summerville and the developments in Nexton real estate.

Nexton One Center: A Hub of Innovation and Commerce

Nexton One Center has truly become the epicenter of innovation and commerce in the region. With its sleek architecture and modern infrastructure, it's no wonder that this business hub has become a magnet for both established companies and startups alike.

One of the most notable additions to Nexton One Center's business landscape is the opening of the Nexton Innovation Hub. This collaborative space is designed to foster creativity, collaboration, and entrepreneurship. Startups and innovators from various industries have found a nurturing environment here, complete with state-of-the-art facilities and networking opportunities. The Nexton Innovation Hub has become a driving force behind the area's reputation as a tech and innovation hotspot.

From great eateries and cute boutiques to innovative workplaces and future-ready homes, Nexton is a place where every day just feels a little easier. That’s because all the goodness is wrapped up in an ultra-convenient setting, where you can complete the day’s errands by spending a few minutes in your car or by peddling a few miles on your bike.

Speaking of bicycles, does yours have a basket on the handlebars? If not, you’ll want to get on that. Publix Super Market and Harris Teeter are coming to the crossroads of Brighton Park Blvd and Nexton Parkway, for all your grocery-shopping needs. Meaning homeowners can cycle over to grab that missing dinner ingredient in a matter of minutes. If you’re not familiar with Publix, you’ll be glad to learn the much-loved, southern-born chain is also known for their distinct brand of hospitality and friendliness.

Breaking ground later this year, Publix is part of One Nexton, a whole new district that will bring together interesting shops, great restaurants, and growing businesses in an immersive community experience. With featured green space for year-round programming and activities, plus additional parks and trails that connect to the greater community, One Nexton is a walkable, bikeable addition convenient to Nexton’s residential areas and close to I-26.

Publix will anchor the first phase of One Nexton, which will also include 37,000 square feet of retail space as well as new apartments for those who want to skip homeownership.

Upon completion, Nexton residents and guests will enjoy 150,000 square feet of high-quality shopping and dining spaces throughout multiple phases. One Nexton will also include an office core, meaning more opportunities to move your growing business to Nexton.

For those of us who live, play, and work on the Nexton campus, it means commuting and errand-ing on your feet, bike or golf cart and leaving the car tucked in the garage.

Look for a 2024 opening for Publix, but stay tuned for lots of exciting updates on One Nexton in the meantime.

Another exciting development at Nexton One Center is the expansion of dining and retail options. The center now hosts a mix of trendy cafes, upscale restaurants, boutique shops, and convenience stores, providing both residents and visitors with a diverse range of choices.

One Nexton: This retail center is expected to open in 2024 and will include a Publix, restaurants, a bank, and apartments. The first phase of One Nexton is expected to break ground in the summer and be completed in the fall of 2024.

The Lofts Downtown Nexton: These luxury rental apartments are expected to be completed in late 2024 and will include a clubhouse, pool, firepit, and dog park. The first building is expected to open in the first quarter of 2024.
AC Hotel by Marriott: Construction on this hotel is projected to finish in 2024.
Sam's Club: This store is being built along Sigma Drive near Nexton's future Town Center.
Del Webb Charleston at Nexton: This 55+ gated community is expected to begin expanding in late 2024.
The Hub at Nexton is a collection of five buildings that will house a mix of medical, commercial and restaurant tenants. The first occupants are expected to move in by midsummer. The building at the top of the image is Home Telecom. The structure at lower right is Refuel gas station and convenience store. The green space between them is expected to be the site of The Backyard Biergarten.

Nexton Real Estate: Where Modern Living Meets Southern Charm

The real estate landscape in Nexton has also experienced significant growth and transformation in 2024. The community's focus on sustainability, green spaces, and walkability has drawn in a diverse range of homebuyers, from young professionals to families and retirees.

One of the standout developments is the introduction of Nexton Green Estates, a collection of eco-friendly homes that prioritize energy efficiency, smart home technology, and sustainable building practices. These homes not only offer a contemporary living experience but also contribute to the overall green ethos of the community.

Additionally, Nexton has expanded its real estate offerings to cater to different lifestyles. The introduction of urban townhouses and luxury apartments within walking distance of Nexton One Center has attracted those who prefer the convenience of city living without sacrificing the community's suburban tranquility.

The Next Chapter for Nexton Summerville

As we embark on this new chapter in Nexton's journey, it's evident that the community is committed to fostering growth while preserving its unique charm. The integration of cutting-edge businesses at Nexton One Center and the evolution of Nexton real estate options demonstrate the community's adaptability and responsiveness to the changing needs of its residents and the business landscape.

Whether you're a business enthusiast, a prospective homebuyer, or simply someone who appreciates the blend of innovation and Southern hospitality, Nexton Summerville, SC, is undoubtedly a place worth keeping an eye on in 2024 and beyond. With its forward-thinking approach and dedication to creating a holistic living experience, Nexton is setting the stage for a bright and dynamic future.

Midtown Phase 2 incoming

Didn’t make the move in ‘22, but feeling like ‘23 is the year? You’ll have a lot of choices in Midtown Nexton. New homesites are on the way along with additional options for renting. Plus fresh parks and added trail connections to enhance our unique indoor-outdoor lifestyle.

Del Webb Nexton levels up their amenities

We didn’t think the amenity package at Del Webb could get much grander. And then we saw their new plans. More and improved pickleball courts - both indoor and outdoor - are on the way for Del Webb’s growing group of pickle enthusiasts. But there’s also a flexible gymnasium with a stage for large events like theater and live music. It can be reconfigured for indoor sports like basketball and tennis, too.

The newly designed pool deck will include a lifestyle-changing covered bar and grill for food and beverage service by the pool. Del Webb has teamed up with a national food & bev supplier to make this one of the best spots around. Want to skip cooking? Mosey on over!

The Hub will open

It’s been a few since we last mentioned The Hub, one of Nexton’s newest spots for retail, office, restaurants and medical space. Literally 1 minute from I-26 at the corner of Brighton Park Boulevard and Nexton Parkway, it totals 88,000 square feet across 8 acres.

Here are the tenants we know so far - The Co-op, Lombardi Pizza Co, KidStrong, Charleston Wound Care, Derrington Dermatology, Holliday Ingram Real Estate Law, The Backyard: A Biergarten Concept, Coastal Vascular and Vein Center, and Palmetto Primary Care Physicians.

We can’t wait to grab a sandwich from The Co-op, enjoy a beer at the Backyard, share a pie at Lombardi’s, and enjoy the convenience of additional medical and professional services so close to home.

Downtown Nexton rises

Though they may not officially open until 2024, some Downtown Nexton businesses will be vertical in 2023. Like Atelier Downtown Nexton, an office and commercial campus inspired by a modern think tank environment.

AC Hotel by Marriott will dot the horizon, too. Plans for the hotel include an outdoor pool and courtyard, indoor kitchen and open lounge area, fitness room and meeting space.

Also rising in Downtown Nexton in 2023: Lofts Downtown Nexton, one and two-bedroom luxury apartments above approximately 20,000 square feet of retail and dining space; and The Ames, a 305-unit apartments community.

The sun will shine on Dayfield Park

Homeowners will love hopping on their golf carts and heading to Dayfield Park, where they can work out at HYLO fitness (and break for a smoothie from Hustle), drop the kids at Goddard School Daycare, and even let Scruffy enjoy a day with his pals at Go Dog, a pet daycare, boarding, and grooming facility. Go Dog also includes a bar. For humans. Seriously.

All of these newbies are adjacent to an office core with services and amenities that seek to fill the needs of modern-day employees beyond traditional office hours.

There are still a few spots for lease and sell, so by 2023 we could be looking at even more uber-close amenities and workplaces.

Introducing Atelier Downtown Nexton

Meet the new guy in town. A fellow innovator, Atelier (pronounced A-tel-yay) Downtown Nexton is an office environment inspired by modern think tank spaces. Perched on 7.5 acres in the middle of Nexton, the campus-like setting will include multiple two-story buildings up to 18,000 square feet.

What kind of business can we expect? Small entrepreneurs to larger commercial, medical and service organizations are going to find Atelier Downtown Nexton ideal. Common green spaces, trails within and linking to the rest of Nexton, and a thoughtful, modern design will appeal to business of all sizes. The campus will also feature ample parking for quick and convenient access.

Breaking ground later this year and opening in 2024, Atelier may just be your future workplace.

See you on the trails!
