What Are the Homes Like at Somerset Barefoot Resort?

Somerset homes are defined by two specific architectural features that make them immediately distinctive among Barefoot Resort communities — the 13-foot vaulted and cathedral ceilings in main living areas and the unique arched doorways and entryways throughout.

Key architectural and feature distinctions of Somerset homes:

• 13-foot vaulted and cathedral ceilings in main living areas — the highest standard ceiling heights of any entry-level Barefoot Resort single-family community
• 9-foot ceilings in bedrooms — above the typical 8-foot bedroom ceiling standard
• Unique arched doorways and entryways throughout — a distinctive architectural detail rarely found in comparable-price communities
• Wide plank Tiger Wood or hardwood flooring — high-quality flooring standard
• Large pass-through breakfast bar to the living area with granite countertops
• Stainless steel appliances
• Master bedroom with vaulted ceiling, ceiling fan, and bay window
• Master bath with double vanity and tiled walk-in shower
• Bonus room over the garage — 12 x 25 feet finished — a specific and practical flex space unique to Somerset
• Carolina rooms — added by owners on many configurations as all-season living spaces
• 2-car attached garages
• Screened porches and patios
• Cul-de-sac lots with privacy fenced rear yards on select positions
• Pond views from front — cul-de-sac positions with small lake on the other side of the street

The bonus room over the garage is one of Somerset's most consistent listing highlights — a full 12 x 25 foot finished space that functions as a home office, media room, guest suite, or recreational area. This flex space is a specific practical advantage that most comparable-sized homes in Barefoot Resort do not provide.

What Does the Somerset HOA Fee Cover?

Somerset's HOA fee is among the most comprehensive of any Barefoot Resort single-family neighborhood — covering digital services, garbage, and home security in addition to standard community amenity access.

HOA fee inclusions at Somerset:

• Amenity access — Residents Club pool, fitness, tennis, basketball, activities director
• Garbage pickup
• Basic cable television
• Internet service
• Home security monitoring — a specific inclusion not available in most Barefoot Resort single-family communities

The home security monitoring inclusion is one of Somerset's most distinctive HOA features — most comparable Barefoot Resort communities do not include monitored security as a standard HOA service. For primary residents and second home buyers who want the peace of mind of monitored security without a separately managed contract this HOA inclusion is a specific and meaningful ownership advantage.

Confirm exact current monthly dues during due diligence as fees adjust annually.

Where Is Somerset Located — Back Exit Advantage

Somerset is located closest to the back exit of Barefoot Resort — the rear entrance that connects directly to Highway 31 and Highway 90 and is walking distance to the Residents Club.

This back exit location delivers two specific and frequently cited advantages. First — Highway 31 access is approximately 2 to 3 minutes from Somerset via the back exit — making the daily commute to shopping, dining, and the broader Grand Strand corridor faster and easier than from front-of-resort communities. For buyers who travel frequently or who value quick daily access to highway corridors this position is a practical daily quality-of-life advantage.

This walkability to the primary amenity facility is a genuine daily convenience that most Barefoot Resort single-family communities cannot offer.

Key distances from Somerset:
