Nexton is a large planned community in Summerville with townhomes and single family homes. Almost every home sold here in the past year was built in the 2020s, and most were built in 2025 or 2026.
Blake's read on the market. Nexton had 617 sales in the past year, the second most of any Summerville neighborhood after Cane Bay Plantation. Single family homes sold at a median of $525K, above the $415K median for single family homes across Summerville, and townhomes at $347K. The median home sold at its full list price after 44 days on the market, and 88 sold above list.

What to know before you buy in Nexton
New construction or preowned
New construction single family homes sold at a median of $543K, or $265 per square foot, across 350 sales. Preowned single family homes sold at $499K, or $240 per square foot, across 161 sales, at about the same size. New or preowned is how the listing was coded in the MLS. I review builder contracts and compare the total cost against preowned homes nearby before you commit.
Dues and rules
Planned communities like this one have an association with dues and rules. I confirm the dues and what they cover for every home before you make an offer.
County and schools
Summerville spans Dorchester, Berkeley and Charleston counties. The county a home sits in affects taxes and school assignment, so I confirm both for every home before you make an offer.
Living in Nexton
Day to day
Nexton sits off I-26 in the Berkeley County part of Summerville. Every sale here in the past year was in Berkeley County.
Getting around
I-26 is the main route toward North Charleston, the airport and downtown Charleston, and rush hour traffic on it is the biggest complaint I hear. I have buyers drive the commute before they commit.
