Berkshire on Clements Ferry: 192 Build-to-Rent Townhomes in Charleston

Center Park Group, in partnership with The Berry Company (TBC) and Batson-Cook Development Company (BCDC), is excited to announce the start of development on Berkshire on Clements Ferry. Located at 1049 Point Hope Parkway in Charleston, South Carolina, the 40-acre build-to-rent community features 192 townhomes. It is situated in one of the most sought-after areas east of the Cooper River.

Berkshire on Clements Ferry will feature 192 maintenance-free three-bedroom, three-and-a-half bathroom townhomes, each offering approximately 1,209 square feet of living space, including a one-car attached garage. Site work is currently underway, with vertical construction projected to begin in Q1 2025. The first units are expected to deliver to residents in Q4 2025.

“We have thoroughly enjoyed our relationship with Center Park Group spanning multiple projects in multiple markets,” said Tony Berry, Principal of The Berry Company. “The TBC team looks forward to kicking off another successful project with Center Park Group this year.”

Berkshire on Clements Ferry is set to redefine low-density living. The project uses only 15.5 acres of the site to maintain a neighborhood residential feel. The community will consist of thirty-six three-story buildings thoughtfully arranged in six residential pods, enhancing the sense of privacy and space for future residents.

“Breaking ground on Berkshire on Clements Ferry is an exciting milestone for Center Park Group as we continue expanding our Build-to-Rent portfolio in key markets,” said Jason Esposito, CEO of Center Park Group. “Our partnership with The Berry Company and Batson-Cook Development Company is instrumental in bringing this project to life. We’re committed to delivering a thoughtfully designed community that offers modern homes, exceptional amenities, and a prime location near Point Hope’s retail and recreational offerings.”

The community will provide residents with exclusive access to amenities, including a resort-style pool and poolside cabana, community playground, hammock stations, a pavilion with grilling stations, a dog park, private fenced puppy yards on select units and bike and walking trails throughout the property.

Berkshire on Clements Ferry is within walking distance of Point Hope’s popular shopping center and is located in the sought-after Point Hope master-planned community, making it a prime location for families and professionals.

The community’s management partner will be finalized later this month, ensuring a seamless resident experience upon completion.

Jill Minor Named Lifestyle Director of the Year by NAHB at The Nationals

Minor joined Cresswind Charleston as Lifestyle Director in December 2019. Prior to that, she taught dance in a public school in South Carolina. With an extensive background in the entertainment industry, she has performed in shows all over the world.

“Jill’s passion for her job is reflected in the success of the lifestyle program at Cresswind Charleston,” said Mark LaClaire, Director of Lifestyle for Kolter Homes. “She loves interacting with the residents, whom she considers family. Jill believes that it is truly an expression of what it takes to be a village.”

“The best part of my job is the residents. I’ve been here three years, and I feel like part of their family,” says Minor. ‘I love interacting with them, and they bring me great ideas.”

Creativity and the desire to create social interaction drives Minor to craft fun events for residents. She started themed scavenger hunts during COVID-19 with actors that engaged and entertained scavenger teams of four. She works with residents and clubs to host themed teas, dance nights, and other events like Cress Talk, lunch and learns and Karaoke night.

During COVID-19, while the clubhouse was shut down, she kept residents active and engaged, thanks to her outside-the-box, creative programming. For this, she was awarded the Aim High award for 2020.

“Jill’s success as a Lifestyle Director reflects her passion for her job and her commitment to the residents at Cresswind Charleston,” said LaClaire. “She deserves the Lifestyle Director of the Year award from the NAHB at The Nationals.”

The residents of Cresswind Charleston hosted a surprise party for Minor when she returned from Vegas. They hijacked an event she had planned, rolled out the red carpet and gave her flowers and a tiara.

Minor holds a B.A. in Dance from Point Park University. She resides with her husband and two kids in Summerville, South Carolina.
