Pine Ridge
Neighborhood in Cayce, South Carolina
Lexington County 29053, 29172
Older ranches with rising new styles
Like throughout much of the region, brick ranch-style homes are common here. Tall pine trees overlook many homes and other plantings like palms sometimes adorn the front yards. Homebuyers here can find generous acreage and homes that often date back to the mid-20th century, even if some of them have been reworked. Many price points range from just under $100,000 to around $400,000. One three-bedroom ranch-style house with fastened metal roofing and mixed siding that includes stone veneer can go for $425,000. The home was built in the 1950s, but has gone through some significant updates and sits on just 3 acres of land and includes a studio apartment in the back. The architecture, however, has been changing and there is new stock available. “It’s all over the place, my friend,” Carnes says. The Courtyard at Rockford Place includes houses like a modern two-story Craftsman where the two-car garage is in a gabled roof wing made partly out of stone veneer siding. In the Drayton Hall community, a traditional two-story and four-bedroom home with both craftsman and colonial revival influences can go for just under $270,000.

Golf and the Peachtree Rock Heritage Preserve
Parents looking to sign up their children for some youth sports will find some quality facilities at the Midlands Sports Complex off Fish Hatchery Road and Pine Ridge Drive. The venue’s newer complex includes fields for youth baseball and football, while the older complex just down the road provides playing space for youth softball. Golfers can get some rounds in at the Charwood Golf Club, while those looking to work on their swing can go to the Par Tee Golf Center, which also includes a recently renovated mini-course for putt-putt style games. For a more scenic getaway, the Peachtree Rock Heritage Preserve sits about 10 miles south of Pine Ridge. Visitors there can explore the woodlands, where they’ll find layered sandstone formations containing fossils of ancient marine creatures.Access the Busbee Academy
The institutions that serve Pine Ridge include Herbert A. Wood Elementary School, Pine Ridge Middle School and Airport High School, all of which received grades of C-plus or higher from ratings site Niche. The Cyril B. Busbee Creative Arts Academy is also located just north of the town. The school, which received a C-plus grade from Niche, serves sixth to eighth graders and aims to provide more diverse programs in areas like arts, technology and athletics.
Columbia Metropolitan Airport in backyard
Pine Ridge sits just within reach of interstates 26 and 77, which provide directions connections to other parts of the Columbia metro and even other cities like Charlotte, North Carolina. Those looking to travel by plane can go to the Columbia Metropolitan Airport, which is practically in the town’s backyard.
Stop by State Farmers Market
The community is home to the South Carolina State Farmers Market located just off U.S. Highway 321. The year-round market is open seven days a week, although vendor hours may vary. The market operates under an expansive barn-like pavilion and its visitors can find a variety of fresh produce, specialty products and artisan items. Among the items they’ll find are honey from regional beekeepers and a variety of color plantings to decorate either homes or gardens.
