The Woodlands at Furman, a Life Plan Community in Greenville, is expanding with 22 new apartments, a library and expanded dining facilities.

Construction is expected to get underway this month, following a groundbreaking ceremony that took place April 4. The cost of the project was not divulged.

In a news release the company said the expansion underscores The Woodlands at Furman’s commitment to providing upscale amenities and lifelong learning opportunities to its residents.

“With our waitlist at five years, this expansion is great news for retirees in Greenville, one of the country’s top retirement destinations,” Rick Brackett, president and CEO of The Woodlands at Furman, said in the news release. “We’ve carefully designed every aspect of this project to enhance the active, intellectual lifestyle our community is known for while maintaining the intimate, connected atmosphere our residents cherish.”

Voted “Best of the Upstate” for eight consecutive years, The Woodlands at Furman is the only locally owned and operated non-profit Life Plan Community in the area.

Located in a natural setting and adjacent to Furman University’s Osher Lifelong Learning Institute, The Woodlands at Furman offers a path for active, lifelong learners who value comfort, connection and security, the company said in the release.

Expansion Highlights:

  • 22 luxury apartments: These limited-edition two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartments, some with dens, range from 1,400 to over 1,900 square feet. Each features high-end finishes, including quartz countertops, crown molding, ceramic tile showers with benches, gas fireplaces and private screened porches.
  • Scenic views: Select apartments offer views of Paris Mountain and the surrounding green spaces.
  • Enhanced amenities: The project includes 6,000 square feet of new amenities. This consists of a library, expanded dining options, a social game lounge, a creative studio, a versatile event space, a volunteer center and an elevated exterior patio, creating even more spaces for community and connection.

The apartments are on pace for move-in by early 2027, the release said. THW Design from Atlanta and Greenville-based Creative Builders were selected for the expansion work.

This expansion project will unfold in several phases, with full completion anticipated in January 2027, the release stated.

The Woodlands at Furman, at 1500 Trailhead Court in Greenville, offers tiered lifestyle and health care options on one campus, including independent living, assisted living and skilled nursing.
