Nestled in the heart of the SC foothills, Longview Carolina isn’t just a name — it’s a philosophy. This agrihood community (read: residential neighborhood centered around community farming) promises a “long view” in design, lifestyle, and sustainable living.

Located halfway between Clemson and Greenville (and just a stone’s throw from Easley), Longview Carolina is more than just picturesque views — it’s about cultivating a life close to nature. With community gardens, fresh eggs, hiking and biking trails, a community pool, and pickle ball courts, residents get a taste of sustainable living with all the amenities of modern life.

What we tried:

We started with a scenic golf cart ride through the property. While cruising around with the proverbial top down, we visited several of the property’s spacious lots, saw the future home of some soon-to-be very happy chickens, and enjoyed a family-style picnic near the top of the mountain.

What not to miss:

If you don’t drive to the tippy top of the mountain, did you even go? You won’t want to leave Longview Carolina without parking your car, getting a whiff of incredibly fresh air, and taking in the views. Bonus points if you can spot your house from up there.

What we’re still talking about:

If you dream of seeing green, Longview is the place for you. There’s a variety of available lots has ample foliage (perfect for shade, a tire swing, or a tree house) while some have open meadows great for sun bathing or picnics.
