Legends at Mount Pleasant, Mount Pleasant, SC

Located close to the beach community of the Isle of Palms and just minutes from Towne Centre, Mount Pleasant’s sprawling shopping area, is an exclusive gated condominium community, The Legends at Mount Pleasant.

Originally built as a Class-A apartment complex, the 200-unit development was completed in March 2001. The Legends, currently going through a gentle conversion, offers discriminating buyers a choice of spacious one-, two- and three-bedroom condominium units, some of them with connected garages.

Situated adjacent to the 18-hole Rees Jones–designed golf course at Charleston National Country Club and Golf Course, The Legends beckons to those who love the game. The Lowcountry offers golfers many excellent choices, but Charleston National, which backs up to the Intracoastal Waterway, remains a favorite.

Just four miles from Towne Centre, The Legends offers owners a convenient location from which to launch shopping, dining and beach excursions, yet provides a tranquil, intimate setting to return to when the day’s activities are done. The 13 two-story buildings are designed around courtyards featuring native oaks, dogwoods and magnolias, or picturesque ponds with fountains. Being surrounded by the beautifully landscaped grounds, as one resident states, “is like living in a garden.” Another important factor that distinguishes this development is that continuous ownership and attentive management by the original developer have produced excellent maintenance of the facilities and pristine grounds.

Other special amenities of The Legends, in addition to being a gated community, are an award-winning pool with a fountain, a lighted tennis court, a well-equipped fitness center and a car-care center. Just across the street at Park West is the Mount Pleasant Recreation Center, which features a host of playing fields, bike paths, walking trails and other outdoor activities. Three highly rated Mount Pleasant schools—Pinckney Elementary, Cario Middle School and Wando High School—are nearby. The Legends is also just minutes across the Cooper River from Charleston’s history, charm, cultural amenities and world-class shopping and dining amenities.

Its proximity to the beach also draws thousands of people to Mount Pleasant. The Legends, only 10 minutes from the Isle of Palms, offers the best of both worlds: It’s close to the ocean but also affordable. For approximately the same cost as a timeshare at a beach property, owners can enjoy their private home year-round. With prices ranging from $149,900 for a one-bedroom unit to $322,900 for a three-bedroom, two-bath condo with an attached garage, The Legends at Mt. Pleasant offers both quality and value. The seller is offering special financing incentives to make buyers’ dreams a reality, including a one-year home warranty.
