News Title:Grande Pines is a new home community being planned by Mungo Homes in the Socastee area of Myrtle Beach.
Grande Pines is a new home community by Mungo Homes that will be conveniently located near the intersect on Highway 17 and Highway 544 in the Socastee area of Myrtle Beach.
Grande Pines is positioned to become a desirable residential destination convenient to shopping, dining, schools, and the beaches of the Grand Strand.
In late February of 2025, Mungo Homes purchased three parcels of land totally nearly 140 acres behind the South Strand Commons Shopping Center near the intersection of Highway 17 and Highway 544. Parcel 1 is 106.75 acres; Parcel 2 is 16.75 acres and Parcel 3 is 15.65 acres. These parcels are nestled between two existing subdivisions: (1) Queens Harbor and (2) Windsor Plantation – and across Highway 544 from Sayebrook.
This new home community will be known as Grande Pines.
Mungo Homes purchased these 3 parcels from Myrtle Beach Farms Company (more commonly now known as Burroughs and Chapin), which currently owns an additional approximate 640 acres adjacent to the parcels that Mungo Homes purchased. This 640-acre piece of land that the Myrtle Beach Farms Company owns was approved years ago under the subdivision name of Pine Ridge for 975 multi-family units and 942 single-family units.
NOTE: In 1990, Myrtle Beach Farms Company joined with Conway-based Burroughs & Collins Company to form Burroughs & Chapin Company, Inc.
Burroughs and Chapin has not yet announced timing or plans for the Pine Ridge subdivision.
Mungo Homes has not yet announced timing or plans for Grande Pines.
Mungo Homes has been quite active building in Myrtle Beach and the surrounding areas of Myrtle Beach. Michael J. Mungo started building homes in the Columbia, South Carolina area in 1954, and still today, the Mungo family is involved in the day-to-day operations of the new home building business. Mungo Homes is now a division of the Clayton Home Building Group and a Berkshire Hathaway company.
