Wedgefield Homes for Sale

Wedgefield, located on the far west outskirts of Sumter County, South Carolina, is a rural neighborhood uniquely positioned in the High Hills of Santee region. This area features a mix of rolling sandhills, grassy marshlands, and the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The neighborhood is approximately ten miles from the local restaurants and shops on Main Street and less than ten miles from the hiking trails at Poinsett State Park. Homes in Wedgefield range from early 2000s ranch-style manufactured homes with neutral vinyl siding to recently developed New Traditional-style houses in subdivisions like Middleton. These newer homes are situated on half- to one-acre lots. Poinsett State Park, known as the “Mountains of the Midlands,” offers over 1,000 acres of rugged foothills, swampy marshlands, and sandhills, with several dirt hiking trails and the 1.4-mile Coquina Trail around Old Levi Mill Lake. Batten’s, a local general store and diner, has been a community staple for over 60 years, providing fishing gear, hunting supplies, and home-cooked country dishes. For groceries, residents have access to a nearby Dollar General and a Food Lion about 7 miles north. Wedgefield is zoned for the Sumter School District, with Manchester Elementary, Furman Middle, and Lakewood High Schools serving the area. Major roads like South Carolina Highway 763 and Highway 261 provide connectivity to Sumter’s hospital, Shaw Air Force Base, and Columbia Metropolitan Airport, which is about 45 miles away. The neighborhood is adjacent to the Poinsett Electronic Combat Range, where the sound of military practice is a common occurrence.
