Furman Place Townhomes Near Furman University

Furman Place offers townhome living anchored by its proximity to Furman University—just one mile away—and the Swamp Rabbit Trail. The community features both original 1985 townhomes and brand-new 2025-2026 construction, creating options at different price points in North Greenville's established residential corridor.

Community Highlights

The newest townhomes, built by a local builder, deliver modern open-concept layouts with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and laminate hardwood flooring. Two- and three-bedroom floor plans include powder rooms on the main level, walk-in closets, and upstairs laundry. A distinctive feature across both generations: ensuite bathrooms for bedrooms, providing privacy and convenience uncommon in townhome developments.

Original townhomes from 1985 frequently feature wood-burning fireplaces and screened porches. Many have been renovated with updated kitchens showcasing quartz or granite countertops, vinyl plank flooring, refreshed bathrooms, and contemporary fixtures. The all-brick end units offer additional privacy.

Amenities & Location

The Swamp Rabbit Trail sits 1.5 miles away, accessible by bike or a short drive. Everyday shopping convenience defines the neighborhood's appeal: Publix Shopping Center and Walmart Neighborhood Market are minutes away, alongside restaurants and banking services. The community sits equidistant between Travelers Rest and Cherrydale, each approximately five minutes by car.

Downtown Greenville's dining, shopping, and entertainment options are less than five miles south. Duncan Chapel Elementary School is within walking distance for those with school-age children.

Schools & Character

Duncan Chapel Elementary, Lakeview Middle, and Berea High serve the community. Low HOA fees and compact lot sizes (averaging 1,200 square feet) support the low-maintenance lifestyle emphasized in property marketing. The community's split between original and new construction creates diversity in price—from mid-$100,000s for renovated originals to mid-$200,000s for new builds—while maintaining consistent proximity to Furman University, the defining geographical advantage that anchors nearly every listing description.
