Seamist Commons leasing retail space in Summerville

Seamist Commons, a 68-acre mixed-use center in Summerville, has completed phase one of construction with leasing for retail space now available.

Stone City Capital, a real estate development firm, designed and developed the property, according to a news release. Once finished, the development will have a village-style retail and restaurant space, offices, apartments, golf cart accessibility, EV charging, and 28 acres of preserved forest with future trailheads.

“Seamist Commons is more than a shopping center—it’s a lifestyle destination designed to bring people together,” a Stone City Capital representative said in the release. “Our vision is to create an open-air environment where residents can shop, dine, work, and connect in a walkable setting that reflects how communities want to live today.”

The development is located on U.S. 176 near Nexton, Cane Bay and Carnes Crossroads master-planned communities. The release said Seamist Commons will serve roughly 20,000 local houses and be accessible to about 25,000 vehicles passing per day.

Seamist Commons is inspired by Birkdale Village in Huntersville, North Carolina, right outside of Charlotte. The release said the design follows an “open air” retail experience with central greenspace.

The Shoreline Center is now available for retail leasing with spaces between 1,400 to 11,900 square feet. The next phase, Core Commercial, will break ground in early 2027 to build the Commons and Seamist Commons Boulevard.

“Today’s retail environment is about experience, connection and placemaking,” the representative said in the release. “Seamist Commons represents Stone City Capital’s commitment to delivering high-quality developments that strengthen communities while meeting the evolving needs of retailers and residents alike.”

Leasing and sales information is available with the Charleston Commercial Specialty Group or Coldwell Banker Commercial Atlantic.
