Old Village & Old Mount Pleasant (29464) — 2025 Market Trends

The Old Village and Historic Mount Pleasant market continues to stand apart as one of the most premium, destination communities in Greater Charleston. In 2025, this enclave demonstrated selective market behavior driven by heritage, location, and scarcity — not broad volume swings.

Pricing & Value:
Old Village remains one of the highest-priced submarkets in Mount Pleasant. The median listing price for homes hovered around $3.42M, with an average price per square foot above $1,200 — far above broader 29464 and Mount Pleasant averages. Homes actively listed span from roughly $995K to nearly $8M, with many luxury offerings showcasing deepwater views, updated historic homes, and bespoke custom builds.

Inventory & Supply:
Active inventory remains limited, typically in the low teens for Old Village proper — a reflection of both physical scarcity and ownership retention in this walkable, downtown-adjacent neighborhood. Combined with a constrained resale pipeline, this supports pricing resilience even when headline metrics appear soft.

Days on Market & Buyer Behavior:
Old Village homes trend toward longer marketing periods compared with broader Mount Pleasant, with properties averaging 50–70+ days on market depending on price band and condition. In a market this refined, days on market don’t necessarily signal weakness — they reflect buyer selectivity and underwriting rigor at the top end of the price curve.

Year-Over-Year Dynamics:
The Old Village market’s 2025 data reported mixed directional shifts, including a year-over-year decline in median listing prices in some snapshots, even as price per square foot and buyer activity remained active. These patterns are typical in luxury submarkets where mix effects — size, waterfront vs non-waterfront, renovation level — materially influence median statistics.

Comparison to Broader 29464:
Across the 29464 ZIP, median prices are around $1.15M, with homes selling near list price and typical days on market in the 40s–50s range — healthy, balanced conditions. This contrast highlights Old Village’s premium layer above the broader 29464 baseline.

What This Means for Sellers & Buyers:

  • Sellers: Proper pricing and tailored marketing remain critical. In a neighborhood where each home’s story matters, exposure to the right buyer pool is essential.

  • Buyers: Success increasingly comes from pre-approval, flexibility, and understanding that Old Village behaves differently than entry-level or mid-market segments.

Overall Insight:
Old Village continues to be defined by deep demand, low supply, and historical allure. Its pricing is anchored by legacy value rather than short-term cycle shifts, and activity tends to reflect quality over quantity.
