Why Buy This Property
- Paved road access — asphalt frontage on Red Maple Ct. (cul-de-sac) ensures reliable, all-weather entry
- Utilities available — power through Dominion Energy South Carolina and water through Breezy Hill Water & Sewer Co. are accessible, reducing development startup costs. Buyers should confirm sewer or septic requirements directly with Breezy Hill Water & Sewer Co. at (803) 663-6455
- Passed DHEC soil evaluation — a licensed South Carolina Soil Classifier completed an Onsite Wastewater Soil Report (November 2022, CSWS Project #2022-296) confirming this lot can support a conventional residential septic system sized for a 4-bedroom home at 480 gallons per day. The system design meets Regulation 61-56, Standard 360-101, with a Loading Rate (LTAR) of 0.9 and 180 linear feet of drainfield. No restrictive soil horizons or free water were identified in any of the three soil borings — a clean result that removes one of the biggest unknowns buyers face with raw land
- Build-ready zoning — RC (Residential Conservation) zoning permits both site-built and modular single-family homes; no mobile homes per recorded CCRs
- Manageable setbacks — 10-foot side property line setbacks provide reasonable flexibility for home placement and site planning
- Clean environmental profile — no wetlands, no FEMA flood zone, no floodway designation
- Gently rolling terrain — an 8–10% slope adds natural character without posing significant grading challenges
- Minimal holding costs — 2025 annual taxes of just $660.77, plus no HOA fees assessed on vacant lots within Palmetto Place
Investment Potential
North Augusta sits in one of South Carolina’s most active growth corridors, benefiting from proximity to Augusta’s expanding economy, medical sector, and steadily increasing population. Residential land in Aiken County continues to see sustained buyer demand as more purchasers look for buildable lots outside densely developed metro areas. With power and water accessible at the property, paved road frontage in place, and a completed DHEC-compliant soil evaluation already in hand, this lot is meaningfully ahead of comparable raw land alternatives in the region — saving buyers real time, money, and uncertainty before breaking ground.
