Limited sales now open in Mount Pleasant’s Dunes West Golf and River Club

John Wieland Homes and Neighborhoods announces the limited release this year of luxury single-family homes and low-maintenance townhouses in Dunes West Golf and River Club, the premier address for resort-style living in Mount Pleasant.

A new neighborhood and townhome design also are on tap for 2022, with a professionally decorated model home available to tour this summer.

John Wieland expects to release a staggered number of homesites each month in four Dunes West neighborhoods over the course of the year.

“We are excited to be opening up home sales and offering our impressive club lifestyle to new buyers after selling all of our homes so quickly last year,” said General Sales Manager Jacob Reynolds. “Interested homebuyers who have been anxiously waiting for Dunes West homesites to become available are urged to join the Interest List online or make an appointment to visit the sales center and tour our three professionally decorated model homes.”

The highly acclaimed homebuilder will be releasing a dozen single-family homes in 2022 from the Classic Collection in the Riverview neighborhood, starting in the $800,000s and ranging in size from three to five bedrooms and up to five baths. A few of the homesites will feature pond views.

In the Harbour neighborhood, only one homesite will be available. Featuring the new Marigold drive-under design, the four-bedroom three-bath floorplan evokes traditional architectural styling with a formal dining room, oversized owner’s suite, first-floor guest quarters and generous screened porch.

Townhome releases will include nine in the Marsh Cove neighborhood. Beginning in the $600,000s, the Ashley and Wando floorplans feature an open layout, two-car garages, three or four bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths. The upstairs loft is an ideal flex space for doing homework or making a “zoom room” for virtual meetings.

The new Heritage neighborhood will feature Cooper low-maintenance townhomes. The three-bedroom, two-and-a-half bath floorplan includes a large great room and dining room with a second-floor owner’s suite, large walk-in closet, spa-sized shower and two-car garage.

Located about 30 minutes from Charleston’s historic district, the gated community skirts the Wando River and features pocket parks, manicured ponds and wetlands with exceptional amenities and architectural details that embrace the graceful aesthetic for which John Wieland homes are celebrated.

In addition to 10 daily boat slips and launch space, a crab dock, miles of walking trails, playgrounds and picnic areas on the banks of the Wando River, Dunes West residents have access to exceptional resort-style amenities. Memberships are available to the Arthur Hills championship 18-hole golf course, a full-service clubhouse with lounge and grille, three swimming pools, nine tennis courts, a fitness center, aerobics room and event space.

Minutes from I-526, Dunes West Golf and River Club sales center is located at 2301 Braided Lane in Mount Pleasant. Interested buyers can find more information or schedule a tour or appointment by calling 843.594.2312 or by visiting www.jwhomes.com.
