The Cliffs is also pleased to report the continued success of Cliffs Builders, a homebuilding program entirely operated by The Cliffs that combines custom-build gratification with built-for-sale simplicity by offering buyers a range of unique floor plans and interior packages. The program’s achievement to date includes surpassing sales goals for its first project, Meadowview at The Cliffs at Walnut Cove, with nearly 50% of homes already sold or under contract.

The success has allowed Cliffs Builders expand to The Cliffs at Keowee Springs and The Cliffs at Mountain Park to meet demand for this type of housing option in The Lake Region and The Mountain Region, and will be coming soon to other communities at The Cliffs. To match the demand, Cliffs Builders has added new team members in the recent months as the homebuilding program continues to develop its offerings to reach prospective buyers.
