Midtown Club — Resort Amenity Hub
The Midtown Club is Nexton’s primary resort amenity center: resort pool, fitness center, yoga studio, pickleball courts, and event spaces. Brighton Park Swim Club has a 25-meter competition pool and splash pad. Midtown is currently in phase 3 of 9 planned phases, meaning significant additional amenity development is still ahead.
Walkable to 120+ Shops & Offices
Nexton’s defining differentiator from most master-planned communities is genuine walkability to commercial uses: restaurants, groceries, fitness studios, offices, and retail — all on Nexton Parkway. Residents routinely use golf carts to reach daily errands without a car. Few master plans in the Southeast can claim this level of live-work-play integration.
Nexton Middle School — Fall 2026
Nexton Middle School opens fall 2026 within the community — Berkeley County School District. Combined with the existing Nexton Elementary (on-site), this creates a K-8 walkable school campus within the master plan. Very few communities nationally can offer elementary and middle school within walking distance of new homes.
Second Del Webb Nexton — 2027
A second Del Webb Nexton 55+ community is coming in 2027 — following the success of the existing Del Webb Nexton. This confirms Brookfield Residential’s long-term commitment to the Nexton master plan and the strength of the 55+ buyer market in the Charleston corridor.
10 Active Builders
Nexton has more active builders than any other Charleston-area master-planned community: Pulte, David Weekley, Saussy Burbank, Ashton Woods, Homes by Dickerson, True Homes, DRB Homes, Stanley Martin, New Leaf Builders, and Brookfield Residential. Multiple price points, lot sizes, and architectural styles within one connected community.
I-26 Corridor Employment Access
Nexton’s location on Nexton Parkway adjacent to I-26 positions residents within commuting distance of Charleston’s major employers: Boeing, Volvo, Mercedes-Benz Vans, MUSC Health, Joint Base Charleston, and the Port of Charleston. The I-26 employment corridor is one of the Southeast’s most active manufacturing and logistics hubs.
