Hammock Walk at Nexton

Attached Villas in a Detached-Home Master Plan

The Nexton master plan is dominated by detached single-family homes. Del Webb Nexton's 1,400 homes are all detached. Hammock Walk is the exception: 180 planned ranch-style duplex villas by Ashton Woods, 1,046 to 1,551 sq ft, priced from approximately $269K to $335K. For buyers who want Nexton's location, walkable master plan, and proximity to Nexton Square without buying a 1,500–2,700 sq ft single-family home, Hammock Walk is the only option.

Berkeley County Taxes — A Genuine Advantage

Despite being part of the Nexton master plan, Hammock Walk sits in Berkeley County rather than Dorchester County where most Nexton buyers land. Berkeley County's effective rate for legal residences runs approximately 0.51% versus Dorchester's 0.67%. On a $305K home, Berkeley County produces approximately $1,301/year in property taxes for a 65+ buyer with the homestead exemption applied — about $108/month. The Berkeley County advantage is a real ongoing savings that persists for the life of ownership.

HOA Structure for Attached Villas

Attached villa HOAs are structurally different from single-family HOAs. In most attached products, the HOA covers exterior building maintenance, common area landscaping, and often building insurance for the shared structure. Verify exactly what Hammock Walk's HOA covers before purchasing — in particular whether exterior maintenance, roof, and structural elements fall under the HOA or the individual owner. The monthly fee should be confirmed directly with Ashton Woods or the community HOA, as it has not been publicly published at a consistent figure.
