How we sell a West Columbia home

For an older home, Taylored Realty Team recommends a pre-listing inspection, so roof, HVAC, and crawlspace questions are answered before a buyer's inspector finds them. For a 29170 home near new construction, we price against resale with builder pricing in view. Every listing gets professional photos, video, a website for the home, and paid social ads.

Across the Congaree River from downtown Columbia, from the River District in 29169 to suburban 29170 and the quieter 29172.

West Columbia has three residential ZIP codes with very different homes: 29169 around the River District and central streets, 29170 along Airport Boulevard and Platt Springs Road, and 29172 to the south.

The homes
In 29169, older brick ranches and cottages, nearly half built before 1980, plus newer townhomes like Faith Hill. In 29170, single-family suburban homes and new subdivisions such as Cottages at Roofs Pond and Pinecrest. In 29172, older one-story homes and some larger lots.
Why people choose it
People choose 29169 for the riverwalk, restaurants, and a short trip across the Gervais Street bridge, 29170 for newer homes and airport access, and 29172 for a quieter setting.
Schools people ask about
School assignment is set by address, and district lines do not follow ZIP codes, so we confirm it for each home.
Getting around
The Gervais Street bridge leads into downtown Columbia. Airport Boulevard and Platt Springs Road carry most traffic in 29170, near Columbia Metropolitan Airport.
Nearby
The River District's restaurants, public art, and riverwalk along the Congaree, and everyday shopping along the Airport Boulevard corridor.

Older 29169 homes may need updating, and the newer 29170 subdivisions sit farther from the river and downtown.
