The Trembley Group Blog has featured many recent articles on the strong market for real estate in Myrtle Beach and along the Grand Strand. It’s definitely a seller’s market with existing homes selling in record short periods, homes selling for close to and sometimes more than asking price, and occasional bidding wars for particularly desirable properties. For those not in a rush to buy, new construction is becoming a more and more attractive proposition.

A recent Trembley Group blog featured many of the advantages of new construction.

Some of the advantages of new construction include the opportunity to upgrade systems and finishes.

The sales executive at The Trembley Group are particularly excited about Living Dunes, a new community of new homes that recently broke ground in Grande Dunes of Myrtle Beach.

The much anticipated Living Dunes, a Grande Dunes community is a collaborative effort of nationally known land planner, LandPrint Studios, the Architectural firm Brown Design Studio, and respected local custom builder and Architectural Design Firm, CRG Companies. Ground has been broken to create a community designed and built for convenience, authenticity, and connectivity. Living Beach has named CRG Companies, Palmetto Corp, Castle Engineering, and Outside Alive as local partners to implement this concept and design effectively.

Living Dunes is a short walk or golf cart ride to the Atlantic Ocean and Intracoastal Waterway. It is located on a 52-acre tract of land which includes 10 acres of lakes.

Developers selected this area for its natural beauty, proximity to local businesses, schools, and medical facilities as well as the amenities offered as part of the Grande Dunes community.

The design incorporates the natural surroundings with miles of walking trails, ponds, and green spaces throughout the neighborhood where future residents will have the luxury of on-site amenities such as a pool and clubhouse and community events. As a neo-traditional neighborhood of Lowcountry homes, the community design will foster a neighborly environment with large front porches and ample open spaces for gathering.

The master plan for the Living Dunes community includes a mix of cottages, townhomes and single-family homes, starting in the $400s. Construction on Phase 1 is underway.

Living Local

Living Dunes will provide residents with a unique coastal lifestyle where parks and trails link neighbor to neighbor. Living Beach’s emphasis on creating an active, engaged community life is part of their focus is to bring back a sense of togetherness and encourage healthful living. The decisions the developers are making today will affect the community for generations. Their commitment to excellence and innovation guided by their core values result in a richer, happier life for future residents with more meaningful connections with the greater community for generations to come.

With some of the area’s finest conveniences right at the Living Dunes doorstep, the recreational and social amenities not only include a superior location but also miles of sidewalks, trails, parks, lakes, a swimming pool and clubhouse. The community of Living Dunes will inspire residents to connect with their neighbors and nature. New homeowners will be afforded the opportunity to enjoy a rich coastal lifestyle in the center of it all – within walking distance to the beach, groceries, schools, local businesses, medical care, and shopping.

As part of Grande Dunes, Living Dunes residents will have access to the Grande Dunes Ocean Club, recently featured in a Trembley Group blog. Residents also will be provided a private amenities center with a pool in addition to access to the Grande Dunes Ocean Club. The exceptional amenities include gated access, 24-hour security, private beach access, fitness facility, pro shop, 10 Har-Tru tennis courts with evening lights, two 18hole championship golf courses, tennis and golf leagues, a marina, fine and casual dining options serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and an on-site YMCA. The CRG Companies sales team are now selling homes in Phase 1 as well as taking reservations for pre-select lots in future phases.
