Carolina Forest experienced much growth in 2023, and a new townhome community is adding to that development.

Villas at Carolina Forest is a planned community currently undergoing site work, with heavy machinery working on the property. It will be located along Carolina Forest Boulevard next to the Canterbury Apartments at 4636 Canterbury Drive.

The property will have two and three-bedroom units, each of which will have a garage, according to the Villas website.

Armada Development, a Charleston, S.C.-based development firm specializing in making multifamily developments, is behind the project. Armada did not respond to a request for comment before publication.

Villas at Carolina Forest sits on about 35.4 acres, according to Horry County Land Records. The property, which currently has a market value of about $2.8 million, sold for about $2.8 million in Sept. 2020.

It’s not the only ongoing development in Carolina Forest. A new apartment complex opened in the area, The Sun News reported in Oct. 2023, and a nearly $8 million shopping center is under construction, too, with a Soho Steak & Seafood restaurant as the centerpiece.
