Handsmill at Lake Wylie- A Waterfront Community All Can Enjoy
Charlotte NC First came the Sanctuary, then the Palisades, then Reflection Point, and now Lake Wylie’s newest waterfront community is HandsMill in Clover SC- thats right, low tax South Carolina and the well regarded Clover School district, living on the water or in a truly waterfront community, just 26 miles on relatively uncrowded roads to Uptown Charlotte, 10 minutes to Rock Hill SC.
I think what I like most about Hands Mill is the ease of access to the water for the entire community–
There are waterfront lots, but naturally many more interior lots. Of course there is a marina, with slips available, but there is also boat and RV storage inside the community, for the more occasional boater. But that is not all, from the Aqua Club- the terrific amenity center (which they have just broken ground on) , residents will enjoy a waterside pool, plus a lakeside beach area, making this a perfect out-ting for the whole family, young and old, those who want to be on the lake in a boat, or cool off in the lake, or for those who prefer staying poolside. It is all there at Hands Mill on Lake Wylie.
The lots are heavily wooded and run from .5 acre to over an acre– interior sales prices start at $145,000 and dock-able lake front from $445,000. The water, sewer and roads are in, and recently they broke ground on their amenity center.
They are building in two areas, the first of five separate communities: Pinnacle Park with homes from the 500’s by Shea and custom homes in Aqua Point, with homes starting in the 700’s and waterfront in the 1.8M and up- though these are custom so your home and prices will vary. They are in negotiations and trying to bring empty nesters and active adults in a ranch home community in as well.
I mentioned above that South Carolina has low property taxes–take a look and see if you agree:
An owner occupied home valued at $1,500,000 would pay approximately $6800 in taxes. ((1.5M X.04 (assesment ratio) X .1134 (millage rate) = $6,804.00) And the home would have about 6000 square feet on a $300,000 lot, or there abouts. And there are deals.
