This neighborhood transcends Southern Charm and elegance. From the moment you drive through the wrought iron & old brick gated entry of Rutledge you are sure to love the feeling of peacefulness and security. The many walking paths around the ponds, highlighted with street lamps and curbed roadways, and the interesting architecture of the homes creates a stylish and welcoming neighborhood. Build your dream home on this parcel which is over half an acre of land. The neighborhood Architectural Guidelines require a minimum residence of 1,600 sf of heated and cooled living space.
