St. Simons Island has always had wonderfully diverse and welcoming neighborhoods and the gated community of West Point is no exception. Located close to the historic landmarks of Fort Frederica and Christ Church, and less than two miles from one of the state's top 20 elementary schools, this 168-acre gated community in the center of the island is the perfect place for your family call home.
Step back in time as you travel streets that pass under a canopy of oaks draped with Spanish moss, amid ample homes on spacious lots nestled among towering pines. The winding sidewalks beckon evening strolls and the front porches are the perfect place to sip sweet tea and enjoy a book or enjoy an impromptu cocktail hour with neighbors. Expansive parks that include a shaded playground invite afternoon romps with children and pets. The beautifully maintained community pool features an outdoor grilling area and pavilion for family gatherings with a breathtaking lake view. West Point embraces the outdoors with home sites surrounded by more than ten acres of fresh and saltwater lakes and ponds. These waters are privately stocked with bluegill, redear, sunfish and largemouth bass for catch and release, so you can take those refreshing breaks from everyday chaos and drop in a line.
Originally purchased and developed by Bob Torras, Sr. in the early 2000s, West Point is a master planned community that encompasses over 168 private and acres with underground utility lines, well-lit streets, and multiple entry/exit points. Homesites range in size from .28 acres to approximately a half-acre. Phase I of construction has been completed and Phase II is now well underway. Ten new homes are now under various stages of construction by West Main Home Company, priced from $600-720k.
West Main Home Company is a local builder with more than 35 years of home building experience throughout Georgia. Their new coastal collection of designs by Moser Design Group features a master suite on the main level, outdoor living spaces, spacious living area with fireplace and a chef's kitchen with a walk-in pantry. In addition, they include detached garages with a side entry, offering an upgrade option to a third vehicle on select homesites. New homeowners may have, depending upon stage of construction, flexibility in selections of cabinet colors, and hardwood flooring (engineered hardwood), ceramic tile choices, and roof options. Two different appliance packages are offered: the standard Frigidaire package or an upgrade to Bosch. Moser Design Group has designed several idea homes for Southern Living, Coastal Living and Cottage Living.
There is also one new home, currently under construction, by Regency Innovations available for purchase.

Torras Properties plans to begin development on Phase III and IV in the next few months with 29 additional homesites offering lake and wooded views.
