Avalon Chase Apartments

GREER, SC - Studio 8 provided comprehensive architectural, engineering and construction administration for this new 50-unit, 55,782 SF, three-story, multi-family housing complex.  Located on an 8.4 acre site, building structures are wood frame with brick and stone exterior. Roofing is fiber cement shingles. The interior is gypsum wall board, carpet, wood, and tile. Split system HVAC serves the buildings. Amenities include a playground, picnic pavilion, and community building.

This was a developer driven project which progressed through the South Carolina State Housing Finance and Development Authority (SC Housing). SC Housing programs finance construction of affordable housing throughout the state. The agency awards federal housing tax credits, low-interest loans, tax-exempt bond allocations and trust fund assistance annually through a competitive application process.  

As part of the application process, Studio 8 provided preliminary site plan concept renderings and drawings which outline and specify building locations, amenities, accessible units, and accessible pedestrian and vehicular circulation routes. This architectural and engineering component are critical elements of the application and must be completed accurately to ensure funding.
