HOT PROPERTIES: Downtown Nexton secures first tenants

Listen to this article

Sharbell Nexton LLC says the first two retail tenants have committed to the ground-floor retail space in Downtown Nexton. A nail salon called iNails, with nearly 30 years of beauty service expertise and 10 Lowcountry locations, and Revive Health Studio, a health and wellness spa offering sauna, lymphatic massage, tune and red-light therapeutic treatments as well as therapeutic products for purchase, are the first tenants in phase one.

“We are excited to begin the leasing process in Downtown Nexton and welcome iNails and Revive as our first tenants,” Sharbell President Thomas Troy said in a news release. “Service-oriented providers, like iNails and Revive Health Studio, and a potential barbershop with which we are currently negotiating are the types of tenants we envisioned filling portions of the retail spaces in Downtown Nexton as they serve important community and regional needs. In addition to these service-based tenants, we are currently working with a high-end spirits store with onsite consumption and a Mediterranean bar and restaurant concept.”

Downtown Nexton retail is located on the ground floor of the Lofts Downtown Nexton, a collection of luxury rental apartments. INails will occupy 1,700 square feet while Revive Health Studio will occupy 1,775 square feet in the Lofts’ first completed building, with an anticipated opening in the first quarter of 2024. Upon completion of future phases in late 2024, the Lofts Downtown Nexton will include residential amenities such as a clubhouse, resort-style pool with tanning shelves, firepit with seating areas, private cabanas, outdoor café tables and bar area and a dog park.

Situated on nearly 100 acres between Sigma Drive and Brighton Park Boulevard, Downtown Nexton will provide retail, dining, hospitality, residential, service, office and commercial options within walking distance of many of Nexton’s neighborhoods. In addition to the Lofts, previously announced plans include The Ames multifamily community, AC Hotel by Marriott, Atelier office campus and Daybreak Market and Fuel.
