Del Webb Nexton Ranch — Lagoon Views, Premium Upgrades, 2308 SF
This exceptionally maintained Martin Ray ranch in Del Webb Nexton is a refined example of single-level living where considered design meets the active-adult lifestyle. Offered at $635,000, the 2,308-square-foot plan places the owner’s suite and two additional bedrooms on one floor, while a dedicated office with glass doors off the foyer creates an ideal work-from-home enclave.
The kitchen is a clear focal point: a large island with quartz counters, soft-close white-and-gray cabinetry with double tray pull-out storage, a walk-in pantry and butler’s pantry, and premium appliances including a five-burner gas cooktop and built-in wall oven and microwave. Hardwood floors flow through the main living spaces into an open living/dining area appointed with a cozy corner gas fireplace. A bright sunroom extends the living space, and the screened porch with vaulted ceiling plus an extended patio look directly over a private, fenced yard and landscaped lagoon.
The owner’s suite includes a tray ceiling, an ensuite with expansive tile flooring, double sink vanity, and a walk-in tile shower with bench and rainfall head. Thoughtful service spaces include the laundry room (washer/dryer included), a mudroom/drop zone, a large walk-in storage closet, and garage attic access via a built-in ladder. Exterior finishes are low-maintenance Hardiplank cement board siding with an attractive full-front porch and corner-lot curb appeal.
Del Webb Nexton is one of the Charleston area’s top active-adult communities; amenities include a roughly 27,000 sq ft amenity center with pools, fitness, clubs, and a busy events calendar. The home’s location places grocery, dining, and retail a short golf-cart or bike ride away, historic downtown Summerville within 10 minutes, and Charleston approximately 25 minutes by car. This is an outstanding opportunity for buyers seeking turnkey, single-level living in a highly social, amenity-rich 55+ community.

A factual market snapshot around 102 Garden Gate Way.
The Nexton submarket continues to command a premium in the Charleston MSA for new and near-new, amenitized product—particularly age-restricted homes that offer social programming and low-maintenance living. Inventory for finished 55+ homes is typically tight, keeping median prices elevated versus older Summerville neighborhoods. Expect active buyer interest from retirees and local relocation buyers; average days on market for similar Nexton resales has been below metro averages, with steady appreciation over the last 12 months (~5–8% estimated). Pricing this home within the $605k–$670k band should attract efficient showings given its lagoon view, turnkey condition, and proximity to the community amenity center.
