Single-Family Neighborhoods in Barefoot Resort
Barefoot Resort's single-family neighborhoods offer distinct personalities, price points, and lifestyles, from gated custom-home enclaves to patio-home communities. As you read, you'll notice natural connections between communities that share similar features or appeal to the same type of buyer.
Bridle Ridge
Bridle Ridge provides the most accessible entry point into Barefoot Resort's single-family home market. This 75-79 home community offers residences spanning 1,500 to 1,900 square feet with 2-3 bedrooms in Lowcountry, traditional, contemporary, and ranch styles. Many homes were rebuilt or remodeled after a 2009 wildfire, resulting in essentially new construction within an established neighborhood setting.
Current prices range from approximately $275,000 to $630,000—making this the most affordable single-family option in the entire resort. The HOA covers cable TV, internet, and phone service, adding extra value for budget-conscious buyers. With only three roads and minimal traffic, Bridle Ridge maintains a quiet, small-town atmosphere while providing easy access to Highway 90 and SC Route 31. First-time buyers often compare Bridle Ridge with Brookstone to weigh price versus lot size and setting.
Brookstone
Brookstone offers something unique in Barefoot Resort: 83 single-family homes positioned adjacent to a nature preserve. Homes range from 1,700 to 2,600 square feet across contemporary, ranch, Lowcountry, and traditional architectural styles. Many properties sit on private cul-de-sacs completely surrounded by natural areas and scenic ponds, creating a peaceful retreat atmosphere.
Starting around $490,000, Brookstone attracts first-time homebuyers, young families, and retirees seeking extraordinary value paired with spacious floor plans. Standard features include stone countertops, tile and hardwood floors, stainless steel appliances, kitchen islands, screened porches, and irrigation systems. If you love Brookstone's natural setting but want golf course views instead, consider Cedar Creek. For an even lower price point, Bridle Ridge offers the most affordable entry into Barefoot Resort.
Cedar Creek
Cedar Creek delivers signature golf course views with 84 single-family homes ranging from 2,000 to 3,200 square feet. The community borders holes 4 through 7 of the Davis Love III Course, including views of "The Ruins"—a unique stone recreation of an old plantation house that serves as the course's most photographed feature. Nine floor plans accommodate 3-4 bedrooms, with some offering finished bonus rooms convertible to a fifth bedroom.
Homes are priced from approximately $545,000 to $990,000 and feature granite countertops, hardwood floors, marble-faced fireplaces, and screened verandas. Quiet cul-de-sacs and scattered lakes create a peaceful setting that families love. If Cedar Creek appeals to you but you want single-level living, compare it with Longbridge. For a more nature-forward setting, take a look at Brookstone.
Coquina Pointe
Coquina Pointe is a 96-home community of patio homes with white picket fences, tucked off Marsh Glen Drive. Exteriors are brick or stucco, and the HOA maintains the front-yard landscaping, which suits buyers who want a low-maintenance home without giving up a traditional single-family lot.
It is a natural fit for downsizers, second-home owners, and retirees who want Barefoot's golf, pools, and beach cabana without much yard work. If you want a similar patio-home layout with the landscaping handled in the back yard too, compare it with Park Hill. For more square footage and a traditional yard, look at Sweetbriar or Bridle Ridge.
Dye Estates
Dye Estates represents the pinnacle of luxury living in Barefoot Resort. This fully gated community with 24-hour security features 98 custom home sites on lots ranging from half an acre to two acres, many with direct Intracoastal Waterway access and private docks. Homes here start with a 2,500 square foot minimum, with many exceeding 4,800 square feet and featuring 4-6 bedrooms with custom brick construction.
Current prices range from approximately $500,000 to $3.9 million, with waterfront properties commanding top dollar. Residents enjoy exclusive amenities unavailable to other Barefoot neighborhoods, including a private clubhouse, pool, hot tub, and tennis courts. If you're comparing luxury options, Leatherleaf offers a similar gated experience at a slightly lower price point, while Tuscan Sands provides new construction with Mediterranean flair.
Leatherleaf
Leatherleaf wraps around the Love Golf Course, offering views of the 12th, 13th, and 17th holes from this exclusive 62-home gated community. Homes exceed 2,100 square feet and feature primarily all-brick construction with 3-4 bedrooms, formal dining rooms, and meticulously landscaped yards. A large centrally-located pond and mature tree coverage create a secluded, established atmosphere that appeals to buyers seeking privacy and prestige.
Current listings range from approximately $800,000 to just under $1 million, positioning Leatherleaf as a step below Dye Estates' ultra-luxury tier while maintaining the security and exclusivity of gated access. If you prefer gated living but want newer construction, compare Leatherleaf with the Mediterranean homes in Tuscan Sands.
Longbridge
Longbridge is one of Barefoot's largest single-family communities with 143 homes, and it specializes in something increasingly rare: ranch-style, single-level construction. Homes range from 1,600 to 2,715 square feet with six floor plans offering 3-4 bedrooms exclusively in single-story layouts. This makes Longbridge particularly attractive to empty-nesters, retirees, and buyers prioritizing accessibility or aging-in-place design.
The community borders the Tom Fazio Golf Course, and current prices span approximately $540,000 to $800,000. Features include optional sunrooms, screened porches, fenced backyards, and private pools. If you like the idea of Longbridge but want a gated community, explore Leatherleaf. For more affordable single-family options, Bridle Ridge offers a lower entry point.
Oak Pointe
Oak Pointe is one of Barefoot Resort's smallest and most private gated enclaves, with just 33 custom-built luxury homes and homesites. The neighborhood is secluded and surrounded by natural areas, and it has its own architectural review guidelines that shape how each custom home is designed and built.
Because Oak Pointe is so small, homes and lots come to market only occasionally, so it pays to get on a watch list early. Buyers who like the idea of a gated custom-home setting but want a larger neighborhood should compare it with Dye Estates, which offers golf and Intracoastal Waterway views, or with Leatherleaf, where gated living comes with a more established, finished feel.
Park Hill
Park Hill is a small community of 34 single-level, three-bedroom patio homes, each with a two-car garage and a white picket fence. According to the Barefoot Resort HOA, it is the only neighborhood in the resort with fully maintained, irrigated landscaping in both the front and back yards. Many homes sit on cul-de-sacs, and the neighborhood is close to the resort's rear entry.
The single-story layouts and complete yard care make Park Hill popular with retirees and part-time residents who want to lock the door and leave. Buyers who like patio-home living but want a larger neighborhood should also look at Coquina Pointe, while those who want a bit more room can compare Longbridge, which is also single-level.
Somerset
Somerset is a smaller Barefoot Resort community of 37 homes with 3 or 4 bedrooms and roughly 1,050 to 1,830 square feet of living space. Exteriors are vinyl or brick, every home has its own garage, and ponds add some open water views through the neighborhood.
The compact floor plans make Somerset one of the more approachable ways into resort-style living at Barefoot, and it works well for first-time buyers, second-home buyers, and small households. If you want a bit more space for the money, compare Sweetbriar or Bridle Ridge.
Sweetbriar
Sweetbriar is a secluded community of about 70 three- and four-bedroom homes, in both one- and two-story plans. Exteriors are brick, craftsman, or vinyl, and many homes include a sunroom or screened porch. The neighborhood sits near Barefoot's rear entry and is popular with first-time buyers, retirees, and young families.
Sweetbriar is a good middle ground between the smaller patio-home neighborhoods and the larger golf-course communities. Buyers often compare it with Bridle Ridge and Brookstone to weigh price, lot size, and setting. Ask Andrew for current Sweetbriar listings and recent sales, since prices vary with home age, size, and condition.
Tuscan Sands
Tuscan Sands is Barefoot's newest neighborhood, featuring 108 homes and homesites with distinctive Mediterranean architecture by D.R. Horton's Emerald Homes. Floor plans range from 2,137 to 3,330 square feet with 3-5 bedrooms, and the community enjoys a prime location bordering both the Greg Norman Golf Course and the Intracoastal Waterway.
New construction starts at approximately $850,000 and includes modern upgrades like crown molding, smooth ceilings, granite countertops, stainless appliances, and glass-enclosed showers. Every home purchase includes a Dye Club membership, providing preferred golf access for cart fees only plus members-only use of Eagle Fitness Center, the Dye Clubhouse, hot tub, and pool. If Mediterranean style isn't your preference but you want similar price point and quality, compare Tuscan Sands with Cedar Creek or Leatherleaf.
