          Acadia is a new-homes community in Greenville, South Carolina, where southern hospitality is sincerely meant.  Since 2005, Acadian families share an appreciation of neighborhood, and enjoy a community of interests.

          Acadia balances its beautiful wooded surroundings with quality homes and elegant designs, in five neighborhoods spread over 340 acres.   A respect for land and neighbor guides Acadia’s vision, thoughtfully developing one of the finest neighborhoods of new homes in Greenville, South Carolina.  You will appreciate how we save trees, protect wildlife (deer, ducks & wild turkey), landscape with native plants, and preserve over a third of our land for green spaces, parks and trails.   Acadia enjoys an abundance of natural resources – miles of frontage on the Saluda River (part of the National Federal Heritage Corridor for the South), woodlands, creeks and ponds to enhance your outdoor experience.  Leave your car in the garage, and come walk, jog, bike, and kayak around Acadia.

          Today, every amenity you could hope for is already in place at Acadia, from pools to soccer field & tennis courts, Pavilion, RiverHouse, PaddleHouse, and much more.  Acadia’s master plan includes a small village of shops and offices for a real live-work lifestyle.  Perhaps the best amenity Acadia has to offer is time - more time to spend with your family & friends.  Only ten minutes from downtown Greenville, Acadia is close to hospitals, airports and shopping.  Less time spent commuting makes for a more balanced life, in Acadia. 

          Acadian homes reflect the best in South Carolina home construction, thanks to our Acadia’s Builders Guild.  Acadia encourages a variety of styles and colors (no two homes are the same), with guidelines and approved builders to ensure quality construction and property values.   Spacious Arts & Crafts townhomes from the $270’s, European-styled condominiums planned from the low $200’s, English Cottages from the $350’s, and unique custom luxury homesites from $85 to $135 thousand, with custom homes from the $375’s up.  Acadia offers a wide range of Greenville, South Carolina homes for sale that are right-sized for your budget and lifestyle.  Acadia is the ideal setting for retired and active families with children, for singles, for young and old alike, a true community for everyone.

About the Developers:

          Caleb and Mary Freeman created the master plan for their Acadia Community, founded in 2005.  As a native Greenvillian, Caleb grew up working and playing on the land that is now Acadia.  A special place to the Freeman family, Caleb & Mary live in Acadia.  So do his parents, and many of his Greenville friends.  Streets are named after Freeman family members.  The John Holland PlayField is dedicated to Caleb’s mentor, who died in 1986.  As you can see, Acadia is personal, and the Freeman family commitment to Acadia’s thoughtful development extends to the Greenville community at large.

          The Freemans created the tax-exempt Acadia Community Foundation to preserve the environmental and civic life along the Saluda River basin.  With botanists and natural resource experts from Clemson University and Upstate Forever, they lead kayak day-trips on the Saluda River. Highlighting how to balance development with the river’s ecosystem, Acadia is a model for environmentally sensitive growth.  Acadia hosts several educational events each year, such as the Urban Farms Tour, on-site conferences for Urban Land Institute, US Green Builders, American Institute of Architects, and others. Play is important to life’s balance, too, so Acadia hosts annual Blues and Jazz festivals at the Acadia Pavilion.

          Greenville is ranked 3rd in the nation as one of the “Most Giving Cities in the US”.  Acadia contributes toward that well-deserved reputation.  The Freemans are especially proud of the gifts that their fellow Acadians have made to cancer care and research.  It all started with Dragon Boats.  Caleb was introduced to this festive sport by his friends on the Canadian World Cup team, when he sponsored and raced with a dragon boat youth team in Halifax, Nova Scotia.  In 2006, the Freemans launched Dragon Boating to the Upstate of South Carolina, and the Canadian champions came to coach.  Now in its 9th year in Greenville, this festival has raised over $1.3 million for Greenville Hospital System’s Cancer Care & Research efforts. Greenville Hospital is recognized for its world-class progress in the fight against cancer.  Cancer survivors, their doctors & caregivers, along with their families & friends join major corporate sponsors like CountyBank, Grainger, and Ortec, for this annual event.  Dragon Boating brings out the best of Greenville’s civic pride. www.DragonBoatUpstateSC.org.

          The Acadia Community today is a new-homes community of over 90 families. Already, Acadia is making a difference in how Greenville lives, works, plays and gives.  As Acadia grows into a planned community of 650 families, their civic contributions show how “Life in Balance” is more than a mere motto to the Acadians of Greenville, SC.
