Summer Wind, a 267-unit Class A multifamily community, is currently under construction in South Carolina by an affiliate of The Beach Company in Summerville’s Dorchester County. The development is being built in an area with an increasing demand for modern, reasonably priced apartment homes.
The development is located at the intersection of Highway 17A and Dorchester Road with easy access to Summerville’s shopping and entertainment, some of the area’s top schools, and employers such as Volvo, Boeing, Bosch, Mercedes, and Joint Base Charleston.
