The South Carolina State House                                                                      
On March 22, 1786, the capitol city of South Carolina was moved from Charleston to an area along the Congaree River which belonged to Colonel Thomas Taylor .The first map of South Carolina showed the new location of the State House which was to be located on a prominent hill. The final State House, which stands overlooking Gervais Street today, took 56 years to complete. The cost of the building exceeded $3,450,000. The 130,673 square foot building is constructed of granite that came from a quarry only two miles away. But the State House is more than a magnificent building - Within its walls reside the hopes, dreams, integrity, and trust of the citizens of South Carolina.

Lake Murray                                                                                                           

Lake Murray is the shining recreation spot for the Midlands. The lake is actually manmade, and at one point, its dam was the largest earthen dam used for power purposes in the world. Lake Murray consists of 78 square miles of water and 50,000 acres of land. It provides storage for 763 billion gallons of water. From hunting and fishing to boating and kayaking, you can find it all on beautiful Lake Murray.

With over 500 miles of shoreline and 50 thousand acres, the lake also is a prime site for real estate development. Lake Murray already boasts some of the area's most unique homes, featuring beautiful designs coupled with a luxurious lake setting. The area is also convenient to major shopping sites and schools in the area are some of the finest in Richland and Lexington counties.

Lake Murray is named for William Murray, the engineer who helped conceive the plan to build "the world's largest earthen dam" in 1927. The 200-foot dam was completed in 1930 and created the Lake, which now serves as such an important part of the lifestyle Midlands residents enjoy.

We offer many beautiful listings on the lake. For more information, please fill out our market scan request on the purchaser's page of our site, and we would be happy to find the perfect Lake Murray home for you!
