Plans for Laurel Woods II, a new 330-unit apartment community on Fairforest Way near I-85 and Laurens Road, are scheduled to go in front of the Greenville County Planning Commission on Dec 12.
The 23.4-acre development is planned by Edward Rose and Sons, a privately held real estate development and management company headquartered in Bloomfield Hills, Mich.
The company has completed more than 80,000 dwelling units since beginning in 1921. Prior to 1965 the majority of the construction work was in the area of single-family homes. Since then the concentration has shifted towards multifamily construction with over 65,000 units built. Approximately 57,000 of these multifamily units are managed and retained by the company.
The company already owns Laurel Woods Apartments at 250 Fairforest Way in Greenville.
According to plans, the $20 million development will have nine buildings with 198 one-bedroom units and 132 two-bedroom units. There will be a community clubhouse, fitness center, swimming pool and bicycle racks.
Construction is expected to begin in spring 2014.
