Cresswind is a premier, gated 55+ community located within the nature preserved community of The Ponds. It's much different than other 55 and over communities here in Summerville and Charleston. It's charm and beauty is just something special you have to see in person to really understand.

Many residents here enjoy the perks of 55+ living while their non 55+ relatives live within walking distance in the larger connecting neighborhood of The Ponds, just outside the gate. It's an excellent option for loved ones that want to live near each other, but not with each other.
In addition to this amazing home and all that Cresswind has to offer, there is something to be said about the community of The Ponds as well, because it truly is a unique and special place. Many residents jokingly say it's much like a Hallmark movie. One which they enjoy having a role in.
Zoned for highly desired DD2 schools, the Ponds is a community full of amenities and activities for all ages. Full of forest like woods with miles of trails to hike, unwind, and reconnect.

Hundred year Oak trees positioned in the center of the community make for some insanely beautiful sunsets. If you are touring the home around that time, be sure to take a few minutes to find this spot. We guarantee that you won't leave without snapping a photo or two. These Oaks also set the stage for one of the most frequently used fields in the neighborhood. In the summer months, the HOA hosts food truck Fridays each month here and brings in live music.
Neighbors of both Cresswind and The Ponds walk or drive their golf carts to this field, throw a blanket down and enjoy spirits, food trucks, and live music together.

Its beauty can be enjoyed by all as it serves as the center of the development. Another scenic spot to enjoy breathtaking sunsets. It's a sought after event space and has even hosted a few weddings.
