Sardis Forest

Welcome to the Sardis Forest website. With its tranquil, wooded setting, The Sardis Forest neighborhood provides a welcome retreat from the municipal life that lies just beyond its borders. Within minutes from Highway 51 and I-485, the neighborhood is comfortably nestled close to schools, shopping, and several houses of worship.

Established and developed by the Willliam Trotter Company in 1976, some residents are original home-owners, but families with children of all ages are increasingly common again. The winding drives lined with cherry trees often draw residents out for a stroll on the sidewalks.

The varied home styles suit the environment—many offer open floor plans and wide decks for greater enjoyment of the natural surroundings. The substantial lots (1/3+ acres) with mature oaks, maples, and pines support a variety songbirds, squirrels, and other wildlife.

A neighborhood park adds a friendly touch and is a good way to meet your neighbors. Park gate keys are available to HOA members. Volunteer membership is available for only $50 if you are not a mandatory member.

Members of The Sardis Forest Swim Club* enjoy the pool and tennis courts located within the neighborhood, just a short walk or bicycle ride from the homes of most residents. Additionally, The Sardis Forest Homeowners Association actively works to maintain and enhance the quality of life that exists here.
