Ion Charleston Real Estate

I'On is a new urbanist community located in Mt. Pleasant, SC, just north of Charleston. The Lowcountry traditions of Charleston are the source of I'On's overall design, marked by homes with broad porches and close-knit neighborhoods with parks and lakes.

Ion Charleston real estate is the kind of place that draws you outdoors. The connecting streets, sidewalks and paths offer endless variety for walking, jogging and pedaling through the neighborhood. By design, public space abounds -- from quiet trails and parks to the vibrant shops at I'On Square -- in Ion Charleston real estate.

There are playgrounds with wooden jungle gyms and sandboxes, and the natural paths along the Marsh Walk offer one of the best vantage points in the Lowcountry for watching sunsets.

I'On residents enjoy easy, convenient access to the Cooper and Wando Rivers, the Charleston Harbor and the open waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Pedestrian trails along the lakes are patterned after "towpaths," used by horses and mules to pull barges along canals in the 19th century.

Offering lakes and rookery, playgrounds with wooden jungle gyms, nature trails, boat ramps and dock, an amphitheatre and I'On Square with its eateries, shops and offices Ion Charleston real estate is a sought-after neighborhood. A fitness club also offers swimming, tennis, fitness events and social activities. Architecture is the key to Ion's success, winning many awards including the 2001 Platinum award for Best Smart Growth Community in the Nation.
