If ever a development was created out of reverence for its location, it is the South Carolina community of Oldfield. Situated on 860 acres along the Okatie River in the Carolina Lowcountry, Oldfield reflects a character and lifestyle reminiscent of its 18^th century roots.

Homes are built among ancient oaks—all carefully preserved during development – and reflect a traditional Lowcountry design with a “main house” and smaller “outbuildings. Residents range from young children to retirees, and while there is something of interest for everyone at Oldfield, the focus here is on water—from the Okatie River that borders much of the property to numerous lakes that are ideal for fishing, boating and exploring.

Amenities include a River Club and Outfitters Center, Sports and Fitness Club, an 18-hole Greg Norman golf course and clubhouse, and Equestrian Center, all with on-staff, full-time “experts.” Special access is also afforded to beautiful beaches on nearby Hilton Head Island as well as the Dorchester Shooting Club.

Single-family homes ranging from approximately 2,000 to 4,000 square feet, most situated on homesites of approximately 1/2 acre. Homesites are priced from the mid $100,000s, and home/homesite packages begin in the $500,000s. For more information, call (866) 653-3435 or visit online at www.oldfield1732.com
