Beth Townsend

Along with the late A. William McKee, Beth was a Co-Founder — and played a significant role in the history of — The McKee Group's parent company, McKee Properties. Her career includes participation in many of William McKee’s development projects including Cedar Creek Club, the Snowbird community, and as a land planner for the residential side of Wade Hampton Golf Club, home to the award-winning Tom Fazio golf course.
Consistently a top-ranked Broker, she has been a real estate professional for 30+ years. Beth is a Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist (CLHMS) with GUILD ELITE™ recognition.
With a Landscape Architecture degree from the University of Florida, Beth is able to give unique expertise on large-acreage development parcels as well as historic estates and homes in the area’s finest private communities.
A career highlight was Beth's five-year involvement with family landowners who assembled specialists to create a conservation easement protecting more than 600 acres of land close to the center of Cashiers. Portions of the adjoining 400 +/- acres have been successfully marketed and sold through Beth.
Her childhood summers and holidays spent at High Hampton set the stage for her deep love and connection to the nature and culture of the area.
