Cobblestone Park

If you have ever wanted to live in a resort style community on a golf course look no further than Cobblestone Park in Blythewood, SC. This exclusive subdivision has taken a hit in the current market but offers a well-manicured subdivision with a quality 27-hole golf course at recession prices. Luxurious homes with high-end appliances and upgrades are being sold way below their original $200 per SF target just years ago. Many of these moderate sized well-built homes can offer a steal to potential homebuyers.

If new construction is your interest, then look no further. This Ginn development was designed with lifestyle in mind. Complete with private tennis courts, swimming pools, basketball courts, an indoor gym and their main feature, a 27-hole golf course. There were hundreds of lots that were sold in a one-day auction style “launch” to speculators and flippers, but the $200,000 price tag on the high density lots would soon find their way to falling prices that can be found in the sluggish 2009 real estate market today. The speculators that passed this up a few years ago should now reconsider and purchase the same property with some being offered 90% less than the original cost. Comparable neighborhoods with similar amenities are consistently selling in the Blythewood Real Estate market.

Blythewood is just a few miles north of the City of Columbia, SC on I-77 towards Charlotte, NC and offers comfortable suburban living. Cobblestone Park is the only true high-density neighborhood in the area, and is flanked by I-77 on the west and Syrup Mill road on the east. It is about a 15-minute drive to Fort Jackson, 20 minutes into the heart of Columbia, and about 1 hour to downtown Charlotte, NC.
