Faris Ridge Homes for Sale

A Hidden Enclave Just Off Augusta Road

Tucked beneath a canopy of mature oaks and hardwoods, Faris Ridge occupies a rare position in Greenville's urban fabric: close enough to walk to downtown in under twenty minutes, yet shielded by dense greenery that muffles the hum of nearby Augusta Road. The community consists of all-brick, two-story townhomes built between 1950 and 1979, with most units dating to the late 1970s. These compact residences cluster along internal lanes, each with a modest footprint and rear decks that open onto shared green space. The architecture is straightforward—brick facades, minimal setbacks, utilitarian charm—but the location and lifestyle have kept the community in steady demand for decades.

Location and Walkability

Faris Ridge sits at the intersection of convenience and calm. Augusta Road, one of Greenville's most vibrant corridors, lies just seconds away, offering independent shops, cafes, and restaurants that draw both locals and visitors. The Swamp Rabbit Trail, a regional treasure for cyclists and pedestrians, runs within a two-minute walk. The Caine Halter YMCA, Cleveland Park, and the Greenville Zoo are all within easy reach on foot. Downtown Greenville—with its theaters, dining, and Falls Park—is less than two miles away, making car ownership optional rather than essential.

This accessibility has attracted a mix of first-time buyers, downsizers, and investors drawn to the "lock and go" lifestyle. HOA fees cover lawn maintenance, water, trash, and exterior upkeep, freeing residents from weekend yard work. The community appeals to those who prioritize location over square footage, trading private yards for proximity to urban amenities.
