Subdivision living in Columbia
While the name King's Meadow might call to mind images of castles or royalty, this community is actually known for its two contemporary subdivisions. Here, according to local Realtor Nancy Holliday with Re/Max, the tree-lined streets, sidewalks and new construction creates a suburban atmosphere that draws people to the community. Holliday adds, It's a place where residents walk down the streets and kids enjoy playing in spacious backyards and cul-de-sacs. The housing market is also one of the area's key attractions. "It has some of the newest subdivisions in Columbia," Holliday says. “And the area is appreciating in value very nicely." Add to that a well-rated school system and a convenient location about 5 miles from city center, Holliday concludes: "I would certainly live there if I were moving."

Depending on their size, prices can range from nearly $400,000 to $550,000. Buyers should note that HOA fees are applicable in both the Bellwood and Stoneridge Estates subdivisions.
