Single-Level Lennar Ranch with Screened Porch & Lake Access
Walk into a thoughtfully designed single-level home built by Lennar and set within the amenity-rich Waterside at The Catawba. This 1,898 sq ft transitional ranch delivers a functional floorplan with two bedrooms, two full baths plus a powder room — ideal for downsizers or buyers seeking low-maintenance living without sacrificing seasonal outdoor space.
The kitchen anchors the living area with granite counters, stainless appliances and a gas range, centered on an island that invites casual dining and conversation. The great room flows directly to a screened porch (equipped with roll-down shades) and two paver patios — side and rear — that expand usable living for grilling, morning coffee, or quiet evenings. The primary suite includes double sinks, a tiled walk-in shower with built-in seating and a roomy walk-in closet; the secondary bedroom and guest bath provide comfortable space for visitors or a home office.
Practical upgrades that matter: newer HVAC and a gas tankless water heater (approx. 3 years old). A two-car attached garage with keypad entry and a fenced backyard make everyday life easy and private. Appliances including washer, dryer and refrigerator convey, simplifying a quick move-in.
Waterside’s resort-style amenities — pool, fitness center, tennis courts, walking trails and a kayak launch to the Catawba/Lake Wylie corridor — deliver lifestyle value that many buyers prize. Convenient Fort Mill schools and commuter access to Charlotte via SC-160 and I-77 round out the offering. Listed at $499,000, this home presents immediate occupancy potential for owner-occupants and steady rental demand for investors.

A factual market snapshot around 421 Brier Knob Dr.
Fort Mill remains one of the stronger Charlotte exurban markets in 2026. Demand continues from buyers prioritizing quality schools, lake access and short commutes into Charlotte. Inventory in amenity-focused neighborhoods tends to be limited — well-maintained, single-level homes often move faster than larger, higher-maintenance properties. Median sale prices in the broader Fort Mill area have shown modest year-over-year growth (low single digits to mid-single digits), with shorter marketing times on competitively priced listings. For sellers, accurate pricing and professional staging can produce multiple offers; buyers should confirm HOA dues and factor them into carrying costs. Given current dynamics, this property at $499K competes well with other move-in ready ranch floorplans in Waterside and nearby subdivisions.
