Beaufort, South Carolina – Tri Pointe Homes, Inc., one of the largest homebuilders in the United States, has announced the acquisition of two new land sites in South Carolina. These acquisitions, aimed at expanding the company’s footprint in the Coastal Carolinas, will include a location for single-family homes in Bluffton and a site for townhomes in Beaufort.
The new Coastal Carolinas division, which launched in 2024, marks a significant milestone for Tri Pointe Homes. The company plans to promote neighborhoods designed to cater to a diverse range of homebuyers in the rapidly growing region. Each of the new communities will emphasize connection to local amenities, educational opportunities, and access to recreational activities.
The Bluffton single-family home community is expected to be completed by 2027.

Additionally, the community offers residents a vibrant local culture with opportunities to engage in art activities, green spaces, and entertainment options such as Station 300 bowling alley and The Zone amusement center.
Meanwhile, the Beaufort townhome community is also projected to be ready by 2027. The townhomes will incorporate Lowcountry-inspired architectural designs, ensuring that the construction aesthetics align with the regional character. Beaufort’s strategic location is advantageous, providing residents with easy access to shopping and dining options in the downtown area, the scenic Broad River waterfront, and recreational spaces such as the Spanish Moss Trail.

The educational opportunities in this area also stand out, with notable institutions such as Bridges Preparatory Charter School and an educational corridor along Robert Small Parkway that combines retail with academic facilities.
