Lot 19 in Aiken's Chime Bell Chase equestrian community is 19.68 acres with little work needed to start enjoying the best of Aiken's equestrian lifestyle. Quality improvements include a lovely free form paddock with brand new fence boards and the property has recently been over-seeded with winter rye. The property currently has approximately 10 acres cleared with a homesite overlooking a beautiful established fenced pasture with mature hardwoods for shade. A solid two bay run-in shed with insulated roof can service the year-round needs of most horses, allowing you to build a bigger barn at your pace. The Lot's woodlands include personal trails and much treasured privacy on all four borders.
While Lot 19 is grand just by itself, Chime Bell Chase adds to the value with exceptional facilities geared to all disciplines. Right across the street, the brand-new hunter ring is competition quality and was built by Aiken's premier designer, Clint Bertalan. It abuts a separate dressage arena. Hack a few yards off the property and you are at the outdoor course which has all that you need for your fox hunter or event horse: ditches, water jump, coops, fences and, best of all - long gallops.
Would you rather just hack? The Community's trail network is extensive and mostly shaded, a special bonus for hot weather riding. The extra, extra bonus is that you share all these facilities with only a few, making for a far different experience from more densely populated equestrian communities. The entire Chime Bell Chase community, by design, is limited to just 20 large lots.
Chime Bell Chase is located on Aiken's southwest side, a 20 minute drive to downtown Aiken and its famous Hitchcock Woods. You only pay County (not City) taxes, and the property size qualifies it for the agricultural exemption. HOA dues are $2,750 starting in 2023, understandably a little higher than other HOAs to compensate for the low density and extraordinary facilities. Square footage requirement is 2,500+ sf with no time limit to build enabling Lot 19 to serve as a long term investment, seasonal or primary residence - it's your choice!
