Beaufort, South Carolina

Tri Pointe Homes has announced its plans to develop 75 new homes in Beaufort County, South Carolina. The announcement was made on May 1, 2025, and marks a significant expansion in the developer’s Coastal Carolina division.

Tri Pointe Homes is under contract for two land parcels aimed at constructing both single-family homes and townhouses. The Beaufort project will consist of 50 townhouses, designed to reflect the area’s distinctive Lowcountry architecture. These townhouses will be located along Highway 170, just six miles from downtown Beaufort.

The Beaufort community plans to promote connectivity to the Broad River waterfront and will feature walkable areas within the neighborhood, enhancing the residents’ lifestyle. In Bluffton, the developer aims to construct 26 single-family homes that will incorporate a blend of traditional and modern styles. This Bluffton community will be conveniently positioned near the Promenade, a popular destination for dining and recreational activities.

The housing projects are conditional upon local government approvals, which are currently pending. If granted, construction is expected to commence, with home deliveries anticipated to begin in 2027.

Both northern and southern areas of Beaufort County are currently experiencing robust growth. According to the Coastal Conservation League, this expansion forms part of a more extensive development plan which includes a total of 3,100 housing units along Robert Smalls Parkway and Battery Creek.

The Beaufort project is strategically located near the newly developed Beaufort Station retail area, creating potential for both residential convenience and community engagement. Furthermore, the Bluffton single-family homes are designed to include rear-load garages accessible via alleys, focusing on outdoor living within courtyards.

Tri Pointe Homes maintains a reputation as one of the largest real estate developers in the United States, operating across 12 states. Known for its premium branding, the company aims to create homes that are synonymous with luxury living. The new developments are part of its strategy to broaden its footprint in the Hilton Head, Bluffton, and Beaufort markets, reflecting the area’s increasing demand for residential options.

As construction plans evolve, local residents and prospective homeowners are encouraged to stay informed about developments related to the projects. The expansion initiated by Tri Pointe Homes in Beaufort and Bluffton may significantly contribute to the transformation of housing availability in the region, addressing the growing need for diverse and quality living arrangements within Beaufort County.
