Woodland Creek Homes for Sale in Travelers Rest, SC

Woodland Creek is the kind of neighborhood people picture when they say neighborhood: sidewalks, a pool, street lights, and streets named for what grows along them — Meadow Rose Drive, Wild Fern Court, Hedge Rose Court, Baytree Court, Laurel Springs Drive, Woodland Creek Way. It filled in through the mid-to-late 2000s and early 2010s, so the landscaping has had time to mature, which separates it from the newer construction going up around Travelers Rest now.

The houses

Traditional plans, two- and three-car garages, half-acre-or-less lots, several on corners and several with full-yard in-ground irrigation. Foundations vary more than usual for a single community — basements, crawl spaces, and crawl-space-over-slab with a sump pump — which follows the grade across the site. Public water and public sewer serve it, unlike most addresses in this part of the county.

Schools and getting around

Gateway Elementary, then Northwest Middle and Travelers Rest High, all Greenville County Schools. The Prisma Health Swamp Rabbit Trail, twenty-two miles laid on the old Greenville and Northern Railway bed, comes right up Main Street, which is why so many households on this side of town own more bicycles than they strictly need. US-25 runs south to Greenville and north as Geer Highway toward the state line, and the mountain parks start about twenty minutes past that. For a household that wants a sidewalk and a trailhead in the same week, this is the shortlist.
