Myrtle Trace Grande sits in the Sweetgrass Square community and has a Charleston-Style design, with ten-foot ceilings in the Sugar Mill floorplan and a waterfront location, so you'll notice a lot of lake views and even some homes facing the Burning Ridge Golf Course or wooded spots, while over 40% of homes have lakefront views, and the whole place sits in an old pine forest with easy sightings of rabbits, ducks, birds, and turtles, making walks around the neighborhood nice if you like nature, and there are eight phases and 518 homes, with a mix of cedar siding, brick, or vinyl exteriors for some variety. Residents can use two east-facing porches built with composite flooring, enjoy solid and roomy patios made from thick, stable pavers, and the homes have modern updates like a new higher capacity HVAC condenser installed in 2023, a handy attic exhaust fan for heat, attic dropdown stairs, and a two-car garage with a water heater that works on-demand, stain-resistant ceramic floors, storage racks, a big utility closet, and even space for a second fridge, which helps, and the kitchen is set up for those who cook, with granite counters, a five-burner gas range, big island, and three pantries, along with GE Profile appliances. The great room gives broad water views out of seven added windows, and connects to an outdoor porch, while the main bedroom sits lakefront with a tray ceiling, a big closet, and a bathroom with a walk-in cultured marble shower, soaker tub, and dual vanities, and there are two more bedrooms with upgraded bathrooms, a laundry room with Maytag appliances, and Bali blinds throughout, plus nice touches like crown molding, wainscoting, and recessed lighting.
People have access to the Market Common amenity center which gives them fitness equipment, a large pool, kiddie pool, two hot tubs, a lazy river, an event kitchen, and a hammock area for relaxing, and the neighborhood also has its own clubhouse with a furnished kitchen and lending library, an outdoor saltwater pool, and places to play bocce ball, horseshoes, shuffleboard, even an outdoor basketball court, with an activity room, game room, spa and sauna, and walking paths too, so there's always something going on.
