Welcome to the Babson at Old Charleston Acres, an ideal retreat with spacious homesites and convenient access to shopping, dining, and outdoor recreation. This Babson spans 1,894 square feet across two floors, with three bedrooms, two full baths, a powder room, and a two-car garage. On the main level, white Aristokraft cabinetry and Granite Moonlight countertops frame a kitchen island that keeps prep and conversation close, while GE stainless appliances line the perimeter and vinyl plank flooring carries through to the dining area. A patio off the dining space extends the living area outside, useful for weekend mornings or evening meals. Upstairs, the primary suite sits at the rear with a tray ceiling that adds dimension, and an ensuite bath with two walk-in closets. Two additional bedrooms and a full hall bath complete the upper floor. After a full day, the kitchen island handles homework on one side and dinner prep on the other without either getting in the way. Standout features: A front porch greets every arrival with covered outdoor space. Rough-in for kitchen pendant lights is already in place. Exterior flood lighting keeps the property well lit at night. A garage door opener with remote is included. An electronic deadbolt secures the front entry. Experience the space, design, and location for yourself. Schedule a private tour today.

About Greater
Lexington
Greater Lexington, located between the Saluda River and Lake Murray, is a suburban and commercial West Columbia neighborhood with lake-country scenery and a busy retail corridor. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the U.S. 378 (Sunset Blvd) and I-20 interchange, where big-box plazas, local eateries, and steady traffic set the daily rhythm. The Icehouse Amphitheater, State Street’s indie shops, and Savage Craft Ale Works act as cultural pillars beyond the main arterials. Housing ranges from mid-century ranches to newer subdivisions, with pockets of wooded lots near creeks. Commuter routes radiate toward Columbia, while riverfront paths and lake access shape weekends. Public parks and sports complexes add open space between shopping centers and neighborhoods.
