At Summerwind Crossing in Summerville, South Carolina, DRB Elevate is reshaping the way active adults think about home design. At the heart of this transformation is the Elevate Room—an optional, highly personalized space that is not typically found in a traditional family plan. More than just a flex space, the Elevate Room is a signature feature created to bring meaning and purpose to everyday living. It's a space that evolves with the homeowner, offering an unmatched level of adaptability, creativity, and comfort.
Whether you're downsizing or simply seeking a more manageable lifestyle in your next chapter, the Elevate Room ensures that your home still reflects your individuality. This space can be transformed into a compact and stylish pocket office, giving you a quiet retreat for reading, writing, or remote work. For those who entertain or collect, the Elevate Room can serve as a dedicated wine room—elegant and climate-controlled, perfect for storing and showcasing your favorite bottles. Animal lovers can turn the room into a pet spa, complete with washing stations and built-in storage for grooming supplies. Other homeowners may use it as a craft studio, hobby room, yoga studio, or even a second walk-in pantry. The possibilities are limited only by imagination, and that’s exactly the point.
Summerwind Crossing is located within Cane Bay, one of the Lowcountry’s most desirable master-planned communities. Here, DRB Elevate has created a boutique-style neighborhood that blends beautiful homes with a strong sense of community and connectivity. The floorplans offered range from approximately 1,400 to nearly 2,900 square feet and include single-story and one-and-a-half-story options designed specifically for 55+ buyers. The Elevate Room is available as an upgrade in each plan, seamlessly integrated into the home’s architecture so that it feels intentional, not like an afterthought. Each home is crafted with thoughtful design choices that support aging in place while still providing the sense of style and energy that today’s active adults expect.

The neighborhood itself is a destination for those who want to enjoy an engaging, social lifestyle without sacrificing peace and privacy. Residents have access to a new resort-style pool and lounge area, pickleball courts, a dog park, and gathering spaces like a community pavilion. The location is also ideal. Just off Highway 176 and not far from I-26, Summerwind Crossing offers easy access to the shops, restaurants, and historic charm of downtown Summerville. Charleston and the beaches are less than an hour away, making weekend getaways or family visits easy and convenient.
What sets Summerwind Crossing apart, however, is not just the location or the amenities—it’s the philosophy behind the homes themselves. The Elevate Room exemplifies DRB Elevate’s commitment to innovation and personalization in homebuilding. Rather than creating static designs that force homeowners to adapt, DRB has created flexible spaces that adapt to the homeowner. The company understands that the way we live changes over time. Maybe you start with a hobby room and later need a quiet guest room or an extra workspace. With an Elevate Room, your home can shift with you.
More than just a feature, the Elevate Room is a symbol of intentional design. It supports wellness by giving residents space to pursue passions, relax, or stay connected. It promotes a higher quality of life through convenience, organization, and meaningful use of space. And in a real estate market where personalization is becoming more and more important to buyers, it also offers potential resale value by showing prospective homeowners that this is a home designed for living well.
For those seeking a home that supports not just where they live but how they live, Summerwind Crossing truly delivers. It is a thoughtfully planned community, created by a builder that understands the 55+ lifestyle and responds to it with design solutions that are as functional as they are beautiful. The Elevate Room is at the center of this vision—a simple concept executed with care, creativity, and real purpose.
Prospective buyers can explore the possibilities in person by visiting the model homes at Summerwind Crossing or requesting a brochure with floorplan options. Here in Summerville, DRB Elevate invites you to discover what it really means to elevate your everyday.
