Property Description
Searching for a 1.5 story home with beautiful views? It's here! Welcome to 286 Lotz Drive.Located in the coveted community of The Ponds, this home offers one story living with a large upstairs bonus room complete with its own private bath.Nestled on a premium lot within the community, this home boasts beautiful views from both its front and back porches. The front of the home faces a large multipurpose field- adorned with mature outlining trees. The back of the home offers a large screened porch overlooking a large pond. Undoubtedly the best seat of the house, here you can enjoy bird watching, easy access to fishing, and relaxing colorful sunsets over the water. The pond also has a fountain and during the night, it illuminates.Inside, fresh interior paint, high ceilings, trim casing, and gleaming LVP floors carry you through the downstairs level. Natural light flows beautifully through the living areas, and the placement of the rear windows allow you to enjoy the view of the pond from within the home.
The kitchen is complete with granite countertops, soft close cabinetry and drawers, a spacious pantry, and an eat-in bar.
A separate dining room connects through the kitchen and entry area, and overlooks the greenspace out front.
The downstairs owners suite is generous in size and easily accommodates a king size bed. Boasting trey ceilings, dual walk-in closets, and beautiful unobstructed views of the pond behind the home, it's a relaxing way to begin and end your day.
Located on a separate hall towards the front of the home rests 2 downstairs guest bedrooms, a full bath, and the downstairs laundry.
An amazing feature of this home is its upstairs bonus room. This can serve as a large 4th bedroom, craft room, or game room. It has its own full bathroom and a small area with counterspace and a built-in mini-fridge. The staircase entry to this room is semi-private, accessible by a door in the foyer and through the interior garage hall door. This allows family or guests quiet access to this room without disturbing the rest of the home.
The screened porch outback is spacious enough to host all of your comfy lounge furniture plus a dining table. It's the perfect set up to relax, grill, or entertain with ease.
Built in 2019, this is one of Kolter's most desired floorplans, the Cypress. A reason people love this plan is for all of its great storage space. The upstairs bedroom has side attic access through its walk-in closet, and the garage also offers attic access and storage space.
The garage was upgraded with drywall, painted, and offers upgraded electrical. A great feature for those interested in power tools or wood working.
While school zoning should always be verified & is subject to change, it should be noted that this home is currently zoned for Sand Hill Elementary; named a 2024 Blue Ribbon School.

This home has the potential to save you money on your annual home owners insurance premium too! When speaking with your insurance quote provider, be sure to mention that this home has a tankless water heater, cement-plank siding, and close proximity to the fire station. These features may offer you a sizable discount on your annual home insurance premium.
In addition to this amazing home, there is something to be said about the community as well, because it truly is a unique and special place. Many residents jokingly say it's much like a Hallmark movie. One which they enjoy having a role in.
Zoned for highly desired DD2 schools, the Ponds is a community full of amenities and activities for all ages. Full of forest like woods with miles of trails to hike, unwind, and reconnect. This is the type of community where neighbors extend a hand to help. Where those same neighbors become friends, and grow to feel like family. If you are looking for a place to put down roots and grow, this is it. The Ponds is best known for its preserved natural beauty. Hundred year Oak trees positioned in the center of the community near the farmhouse make for some unbelievably beautiful sunsets. If you are touring the home around that time, be sure to take a few minutes to find this spot. We guarantee that you won't leave without snapping a photo or two. These Oaks also set the stage for one of the most frequently used fields in the neighborhood. In the summer months, the HOA hosts food truck Fridays each month here and brings in live music.
Neighbors walk or drive their golf carts to this field, throw a blanket down and enjoy spirits, food trucks, live music, and good company- together.
Just beside this field sits the custom built tree house. A naturesque playground built to allow all ages to climb up and into the branches of one of the hundred year old Oak trees.
The community also offers a large zero entry swimming pool, a beautiful outdoor shelter with a fire place, picnic tables and 2 large gas grills, a community fire pit, a kayak launch, numerous ponds for fishing, and an amphitheater which is often used for events such as the neighborhoods Fourth of July festival.
Other fun community activities include (subject to change):
- Numerous golf cart parades
- Annual Halloween "witch walk" (in-neighborhood food & pub crawl)
- Youth fishing tournament
- Easter egg hunt
- Bunco
- Outdoor movie nights
- Youth triathlon

There are also several clubs within the community for residents to join (subject to change); a fishing club, book club, trail hiking club, gardening club, and a photography club to name a few.
The Ponds also boasts a historical farmhouse which serves as their amenity center. The farmhouse dates back to the 1830's and is said to be the third home ever constructed in The Ponds. Its beauty can be enjoyed by all as it serves as the center of the development. Another scenic spot to enjoy breathtaking sunsets. It's a sought-after event space and has served as host to the Annual DD2 Foundation's evening fundraiser and has even hosted a few weddings.
Just beside the farmhouse sits a small cottage that serves as the community coffee house. And adorable spot to stroll to each morning to enjoy the paper, read a book, or just catch up with neighbors over a cup of joe. It even offers free WiFi and is a great spot to use occasionally if you work remotely.
In addition to the endless amenities available to community residents, The Ponds is also home to one of Summerville's YMCA centers. If you've ever dreamt of being able to roll out of bed and walk to the gym or to your little ones' sports games, here's your chance!
The Ponds isn't just a place, it's a lifestyle and residents here truly treasure what it offers. We hope that you will take time to not only tour this incredible home but the community as well. Homes here move fast so we encourage you to book your showing soon.
