DeBordieu’s Fabulous Feature #1 – LOCATION

 

This week I’m going to talk about the BENEFITS of the FEATURES that make DeBordieu Colony one of South Carolina’s most-loved, oceanfront, golf communities.
DeBordieu Fabulous Feature #1 – LOCATION
DeBordieu is located 7 miles south of Pawleys Island, South Carolina, a charming beach community with plenty of shopping, dining, and entertainment opportunities, which means that from your home in DeBordieu, you won’t have to travel very far to get groceries, gas for your boat, or a new beach chair to take with you on the beach.
DeBordieu is just 3 miles north of Georgetown, an historic seaport community that offers tours of historic homes dating back to the 1700s, picturesque riverfront dining, and a great hospital, which means you will have the security of knowing that when you or a member of your family is in need of medical assistance, it’s just right down the street.
Romantic Charleston, with its exceptional assortment of restaurants, shopping, historic sites and cultural events, is just an hour and a half south of DeBordieu’s main gate. Many DeBordieu residents think nothing of zipping down to Charleston for an exciting day of shopping or an evening dinner and show.
Myrtle Beach and its convenient airport, is about 45 minutes north of DeBordieu offering its own amazing array of dining establishments, shopping, nightlife, live entertainment theaters and more than 100 championship golf courses. Many flights in and out of Myrtle Beach offer discounted airfares to major metropolitan areas in the northeast.
Between these two very different coastal cities you’ll find quiet fishing villages, pristine beaches, a national forest and seashore, dozens of antebellum plantations, the largest outdoor sculpture garden in America and, most importantly, DeBordieu.
As wonderfully secluded and quiet as DeBordieu is, when you own a home here, you will not run short of things to do and see. The location is perfect! Click on the pictures for details about the homes.

Niche, Nature and Nice Neighbors

 

In the past week, I’ve had two terrific meetings with realtors from Pawleys Island who wisely chose to bring their clients to DeBordieu. It also became pretty clear that I think one of the roles I will play in my new/old position at DeBordieu is one of “outside-realtor liaison.” In fact….having formed some wonderful relationships with realtors in Pawleys Island and Murrells Inlet over the past few years, it might just be my little niche. It was a lot of fun connecting with my realtor buddies and meeting their very qualified clients!

People: The first client was an extremely nice lady looking for a large home with a minimum of 4000 hsf. She needed it to be as nice and new as possible, with an elevator and good view. She and her realtor were pretty worn out after looking all over Pawleys Island so I treated them to a wonderfully, relaxing lunch at the DeBordieu Clubhouse. Afterward, the three of us visited just one house that fit her requirements and price parameters. She loved it, and she LOVED DeBordieu. Because this was her first visit to DeBordieu, she wants to come back when she can bring her hubby and spend more time.

The second client was an absolutely delightful retired businessman. His love of nature and wide open spaces made him a perfect fit for DeBordieu. There were two homes that fit his price parameters and could possibly reach the rental potential he was looking for. An avid photographer, he could particularly appreciate the way DeBordieu looked in the late afternoon light….absolutely gorgeous. Here’s some info about the homes we saw, click on the name to get to the link:
Places: Located in the Ocean Green area of DeBordieu, the 7 bedroom BRASELTON house is perfect for a big family. The huge kitchen opens to the Dining and Living Rooms, and the porches run the entire width of both levels….offering fabulous views!
The STUCKY house was also beautiful, and at just $1.7, one of the best oceanfront deals in the county! Located on a “back-flag” lot, this home has been updated, but thank goodness they didn’t touch the gorgeous woodwork inside.

Things: Hobcaw Barony – located right next door, to the south of DeBordieu, this 17,500 acre wildlife preserve was once home to Wall Street millionaire and presidential advisor, Bernard Baruch, and subsequently, his daughter, Belle. At Belle’s death, the property was placed in a foundation and preserved for teaching and research purposes. Today, Clemson University conducts research in the forest, and the University of South Carolina performs marine biology research in North Inlet. What great neighbors to have, eh?

There truly is no place like home…..and there’s no place like DeBordieu.
