The post New Features Added to charlestonrealestate.com appeared first on .

Cuyler Applegate of William Means Real Estate has officially listed the first four properties of The Gathering at Morris Square, an exciting new urban neighborhood in a prime downtown Charleston location.  The 33 unit complex is expected to be completed late fall of 2013.

The neighborhood combines classic Charleston architecture with modern design.  Pricing starts in the mid $400’s with eight convenient floorplans.  The three and four bedroom homes with two and a half baths range from 1,400-2,100 square feet and feature metal roofs, cement plank exterior, bamboo floors, granite, ceramic tile bathroom floors, and off-street parking. The community will also be complimented by a new city park.

The Gathering at Morris Square is located on Morris Street between Felix and Smith Streets within the urban core of the city.  Upper King Street is quickly becoming one of downtown’s most popular neighborhoods giving residents access to cocktail bars, dining, shopping, and cutting-edge art galleries.  It’s also convenient to MUSC, the College of Charleston, and the Charleston School of Law.  “This location is attractive to a wide range of buyers – professionals wanting to live near work, young couples wanting to raise their children in an urban environment, and students at both MUSC and CofC who would like to be able to walk to school,” says listing agent Cuyler Applegate.

The future development of new hotels and restaurants will only increase attention surrounding this already highly desired area.  The real estate market near Upper King already reflects the growing demand with over 15 homes sold year to date and the most recent sales were on the market for less than 60 days.*  “We are excited to bring a new quality construction project to the peninsula in close proximity to the tremendous growth around Upper King.  This is a huge bonus for The Gathering at Morris Square and its potential buyers,” says Cuyler.

Currently Listed Properties: 0 Dereef Court A, 0 Dereef Court B1, 0 Dereef Court B2, 0 Dereef Court C,
