The luxury residential community The Reserve at Lake Keowee is going strong, reporting a sales increase of 50 percent in 2013 with more construction and development planned in 2014.
The Reserve also posted a record year in new-home construction. Fifty-one home plans were submitted to the community’s architecture review committee, and 40 homes broke ground. Twenty-four new-construction homes were finished in 2013, which brought the total number of completed homes in The Reserve to 232.
The Reserve also welcomed 69 new club members from 20 states and the Caribbean as a result of the sales and construction activity. Families from 40 states traveled to The Reserve to view properties.
“We could not be more excited to welcome more families to The Reserve this past year,” said Rutledge Livingston, the community’s director of sales. “The Reserve continues to offer a high-quality lake living experience that is very appealing to buyers across the U.S. and internationally.”
Created in 2000 by Greenwood Communities and Resorts, The Reserve at Lake Keowee is an award-winning residential community that spans 3,900 acres in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, with 30 miles of shoreline on Lake Keowee. The community includes a 200-slip marina, Village Center, Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course, and more than 1,400 acres of parks, preserves, trails and green spaces.
In addition to introducing its second phase of homes within Village Point, a marina-front neighborhood, in August 2013, The Reserve at Lake Keowee has home construction activity within two additional neighborhoods: The Cottages at Laurel Pond and High Grove.
