The native wildlife that call it home include white-tailed deer, alligators, raccoons, beavers, coyotes, bobcats and foxes. There are also diverse species of shore birds and birds of prey that live on the land. Although this sounds like an amazing attraction for tourists visiting the Charleston area, this is actually Dunes West, a Mount Pleasant neighborhood with approximately 2,600 homes, a golf course and a club. Dunes West is a master-planned subdivision with numerous subsections that include condominiums, townhomes, duplexes and single family homes, all perfectly spaced throughout the vast green space. Price points in Dunes West range from $200,000 to the millions. In short, there is a home here for everyone. With safety in mind, the neighborhood has two gated entrances, where visitors provide a driver’s license to enter. Standards to maintain the beauty are in place, thanks to detailed structure, driveway, landscape and dock standards. Here, lawns are kept manicured, and homes are well-maintained. Around the neighborhood, outdoor activities abound, with neighbors jogging, walking their dogs or riding their bicycles. The community has two docks for fishing and crabbing on the Wando River, a playground and a covered pavilion, ideal for outdoor gatherings. Club membership is optional for residents. Nationally acclaimed by Golf Magazine and Golf Digest as a Top Ten Resort Course, the par 72 golf course plays 6,871 yards. The Arthur Hills designed course is perfect for all levels of play. The back nine features marsh and water views, culminating in the last hole’s finish on a dual green split by the marshes of Wagner Creek. The club also offers three pools, a water park with waterslide and beach entry, a separate lap pool and an adults-only access pool near the clubhouse. The Racquet Club features nine lighted tennis courts — six asphalt and three clay. Tennis program offerings include camps, leagues, group clinics and private lessons. The athletic club offers a state-of-the-art fitness center and aerobics room, as well as fitness classes. Members can enjoy yoga, Pilates, cardio, sculpt and water fitness. The club also features a boat ramp and dry storage for boat enthusiasts. Zelda Bryant, broker at Bryant Real Estate Group said: “Dunes West was once considered on the far side of Mount Pleasant, but that is no longer true. With the addition of a nearby Costco, Lowes Foods, the expansion of Wando High School and many other neighborhoods, Dunes West is now considered centrally located and one of Mount Pleasant’s premier neighborhoods.” For information about Dunes West, visit www.
