A look back at the 2025 New Home Trends Summit master plan tour of 🌟 What’s your favorite master plan? Comment below 👇🏼

Brookfield and the Nexton team hosted a tour through this innovative, thoughtfully planned community, which ranked #27 on John Burns Research and Consulting list of 50 Top-Selling MPCs of 2024. 

From its roots as former paper mill land to its evolution into a 5,000-acre master-planned community, Nexton is a case study in vision, adaptability, and great design. A few highlights:
✨ Building a true third employment center for the Charleston region—not just homes, but jobs and opportunity
✨ 50 miles of trails and parks (that people were using before homes were even built!)
✨ A focus on innovation, wellness, diversity, and thoughtful design—core values that still guide the community today
✨ A mix of neighborhoods for every stage of life—from first-time buyers to move-up families to active adults (with a colorful model home row)

Can ADUs and multigen housing truly impact the affordability crisis?

Depends if they are included from the start or retrofitted (among other things).

Join us for Scott Wild’s moderated session at the New Home Trends Summit to learn where ADUs and multigen can move the needle - and how to do it right.
