What I Like About The Landings at New Riverside

I've lived in the SC Lowcountry since December 1996, and I've watched the New Riverside area of Bluffton grow from mostly undeveloped land into one of the area's more active newer neighborhoods. What stands out to me about The Landings at New Riverside is how much recreational amenity is packed into a gated single-family home community of this size. Tennis, pickleball, a pool, a playground, a covered picnic pavilion, and a fire pit all inside one gate is a lot of lifestyle value for a newer, well-built home. I've worked with several buyers who were drawn to The Landings specifically because of the newer construction and the design choices in these homes.

What Buyers Should Know Before Choosing The Landings at New Riverside

• Short-term rentals are not permitted in the community.
• Commercial activity and the parking or storage of RVs and boats are restricted under the community's covenants and restrictions.
• Improvements to a lot, such as an added structure or fencing, are subject to the lot, the governing documents, and architectural approval rather than automatically permitted.
• Buyers should review the current HOA financials and governing documents as part of due diligence, the same as with any HOA-governed community.

Is The Landings at New Riverside a Good Fit for You?

The Landings at New Riverside tends to fit buyers looking for a gated single-family home with a two-car garage and a strong recreational amenity package, without golf or club dues attached. It can work well for relocation buyers, buyers who want a full-time or part-time Lowcountry home they can lock and leave, and buyers who value tennis and pickleball access close to home.

Buyers whose primary goal is generating short-term rental income should look elsewhere, since short-term rentals are not permitted here.
