Best places to live in Greenville area (Taylors, Travelers Rest: real estate, buying a house)

[Smiles721]

I'm planning on buying a house around 225k in the Greenville area. Where can I get best bang for my buck, and ideally a location/home that will appreciate in value?


Must have:
Safe area, I am a single professional lady & this is very important to me



Preferences:
I am very active so closer to Mountain access is ideal, aka NW areas.

I do not want to be in the downtown area or areas that are heavy with traffic.

Close to Swamp Rabbit & Paris Mtn would be great.

Close to a good gym.

I'm self employed so work is not an issue.


I appreciate insights and advice.

Travelers Rest. There is a some construction in TR that is right in your price range. And TR is very much up and coming, so home values should increase.

Thank you, I will check out TR.

In addition to TR, try Pebble Creek or Edwards Forest areas. Near Paris Mtn, a little further to SRT but better shopping and restaurants and schools IMHO. This helps value increase too.

I second Pebble Creek in Taylors, SC.

Somewhere around the Paris Mountain to Travelers Rest area would probably work well for you.

Thanks I will be checking out all these areas,

What Gyms/ Sportsclubs are nearby?

[BigRedBeth]

Ah yes- Pebble Creedk- there is a lovely home available there for $209K.
