I'On Real Estate - Mount Pleasant, SC
Â
I'On is one of the most prestigous neighborhoods in all of Mount Pleasant. It is composed of a network of streets and buildings that encourage walking, and is a very active community. I'On is divided into six smaller neighborhoods ("boroughs"), each planned around a preserved civic space such as a lake, park or square, and each containing 80 to 150 homes. The boroughs are Eastlake, Ionsborough, Shelmore, Westlake, Ponsbury and Montrose. Eight sites in I'On have been reserved for civic buildings, such as small churches or other community buildings.
The homes and buildings in I'On bear the stamp of Lowcountry vernacular design, which usually includes most or all of the following elements: vertical scale (homes are taller than they are wide); natural exterior finishes such as wood clapboard, brick or stucco; spacious, raised porches; balconies; shuttered windows; simple and/or symmetrical rooflines; fences, walls and gates; and outbuildings such as garages, potting sheds, workshops or home offices.
I'On's Lowcountry vernacular is upheld by the I'On Code, a set of architectural guidelines that address the neighborhood plan, thoroughfares, lot types, neighborhood standards, architectural standards and landscape standards. The Code is not overbearing; rather, it exists to "create a social neighborhood; offer a range of house designs which are carefully placed to make the most of public and private realms; and assist the resident, builder and architect with the design of houses within I'On," according to The I'On Company.
