Fort Mill Tega Cay Lake Wylie Real Estate

Crescent Resources, known as Crescent Communities appears to be on a roll as it relates to developing master planned home communities in and around Fort Mill, SC. and Lake Wylie.

The 640 acre Springfield Community in the north part of Fort Mill began development winter of 2006. Crescent Resources announced last March the opening of a new development across from the 1300 acre Sanctuary community called Chapel Cove. Chapel Cove is planed for 250 home sites on 291 acres. It is located off of Shopton Road West in Mecklenburg county NC on the shores of Lake Wylie.

Currently, Crescent Resources in conjunction with a partnership called the Allison Creek Partners is in the planning mode for a massive 2300 acre development on the north and south sides of Big Allison Creek on Lake Wylie. This project is in the rezoning phase with York County. And Crescent plans to develop an additional 460-acre tract at the southern arm of Crowder’s Creek. (more…)

The US Census Bureau released on March 27, 2008 charts showing the fastest growing metro areas as of July 1, 2007. Ok so I am stretching it a bit to just say Fort Mill.

I had to laugh when I read a Fort Mill Times editorial this week about Wal-Mart building a wall of stores around our community. I posted Sunday the news about a new Wal-Mart planned for Highway 21 and Flint Hill road and another store is planned in the Lake Wylie area. What I did not say is Wal-Mart has been planning a new store in Lancaster County on Highway 521 in Indian Land. Wal-Mart and Lancaster County officials did not know when construction will begin of the Indian Land Wal-Mart. (more…)

Attention shoppers, two new Wal-mart’s are in the planning stages. The new Tega Cay Wal-Mart opened March 7th, 2008 in Tega Cay off of highway 160 in the new Stone Crest development area. Wal-Mart is already keeping the York County Zoning department busy with two more possible Wal-Mart’s in our area. (more…)

Temperatures this week are hitting the low to mid 70’s. How many of you are thinking about getting on the lake? Lake Wylie was hit hard after last summer’s drought conditions. Duke Energy who manages the lake reported last October 2007 a dam lake level of 92.80 feet. Full pond as Duke Energy calls it is 97 feet. (more…)
