Regatta Shores — Irmo, South Carolina.

Regatta Shores is a six-lot lakefront subdivision on Regatta Road, at the east end of Lake Murray near the River Road peninsula and the Lake Murray Dam. Lexington County address points and parcel cards give these houses a Columbia mailing address in ZIP 29212. They sit in unincorporated Lexington County, not inside the Town of Irmo, and not in Ballentine ZIP 29063. Buyers still shop the pocket with the close-in Irmo side of the lake. This title uses Irmo for that search. The mailbox city is Columbia.

County tax maps show one subdivision name, Regatta Shores, and six residential lots. There is no verified second phase inside it. Do not mix it with Regatta Forest, Regatta Pointe, or the older Regatta phases on Regatta Court and the higher numbers on Regatta Road. Those are separate recorded subdivisions on the same road system.

The Patrick O'Connor Team at Coldwell Banker Realty helps buyers and sellers compare small Lake Murray streets like this one with larger Irmo and Lexington neighborhoods. Photos of the street and homes can be added later. This guide is text until those pictures are ready.

About Regatta Shores

What the county record supports: six parcels, legal lines REGATTA SHORES LOT 1 through LOT 6, each typed LAKEFRONT - IMPROVED, each with a Columbia 29212 situs. The house numbers on those cards are 231, 235, 239, 243, 303, and 307 Regatta Road. Lot 6's legal line also notes small added pieces of land. A second address point, 307A, sits on the same parcel as 307. That is not a seventh lot.

Improvement cards list years built from 2017 through 2020. An online neighborhood blurb that puts Regatta Shores on Old Bush River Road, in ZIP 29063, platted in 1985, with Dutch Fork schools, does not match these parcels. This guide does not use that page.

The lots were split from parent parcel 2696-3-8. The tax-subdivision layer stores restrictions book 17999, page 251, and a lot count of 6. The Register of Deeds March 2026 restrictions index does not list a document titled Regatta Shores. It does list Regatta Forest and Regatta Pointe, which are different places. Book 17999 was not read for this page. It is not treated here as proof of a dues amount, a gate, or a clubhouse.

Parcel zoning code is D. In the Lexington County zoning ordinance revised June 25, 2024, D is the Development district, listed with the restrictive development districts. The parcel tax-district code is 5 FW. Neighborhood code on the cards is REGATTAS. None of those codes is a promise about dock rights or association fees.

Homes for Sale in Regatta Shores

Six houses means thin inventory. A sale here is a one-off lakefront resale on Regatta Road, not a repeated production plan. This guide does not name a current listing. No active Regatta Shores address was verified on a listing portal for this October 2, 2026 pass.

When you search, use the legal name Regatta Shores and the street, and keep Regatta Forest, Regatta Point, and Regatta Court out of the set unless you mean those other subdivisions. Older lot ads for this road sometimes left the subdivision field blank. The county legal description is the cleaner filter.

There is no team market-report URL for this street yet. Ask for a fresh MLS pull before treating any count as live.

Market Data as of October 2026

All time-sensitive numbers live in this section. They are county parcel facts, not a computed neighborhood average and not an MLS report. No 2025 or 2026 closed-sale report for Regatta Shores is published on scmidlandsagent.com, and this page does not invent one.

Scale (county subdivision layer, Oct 2, 2026): Regatta Shores, master name Regatta Shores, 6 lots, subtype residential. Six parcel cards match, TMS 002616-01-001 through 002616-01-006.
Lot size on those cards: about 0.25 to 0.42 acres. Living area on the improvement cards: about 2,076 to 3,336 square feet. Years built: 2017, 2018, 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2020.
Recorded sale, 303 Regatta Road (lot 5, year built 2017, 2,276 sq ft, 0.25 acres): sale date March 30, 2022, price $1,300,000 on the county card. One house, not an average.
Recorded sale, 307 Regatta Road (lot 6, year built 2020, 2,394 sq ft, 0.42 acres): sale date November 13, 2023, price $1,575,000 on the county card. Not today's list price.
Earlier figure, 239 Regatta Road (lot 3, year built 2018): the card's sale date is August 24, 2016, price $225,000. That date is before the house year. Do not use it as a sale of the finished home.
Not market prices: the latest amounts stored for 231 Regatta Road (February 25, 2026), 235 Regatta Road (May 26, 2020), and 243 Regatta Road (November 18, 2025) are $1 or $5. Those are nominal entries. They are not sale comps.
HOA dollars: not published here. The restrictions book and page on the subdivision layer were not priced out.

Types of Homes

Public records support a short list. They do not support named villages inside Regatta Shores.

Single-family lakefront houses on Regatta Road, built 2017 through 2020, on lots of roughly a quarter-acre to just under a half-acre.
Size is not uniform. County living area runs from about 2,076 to 3,336 square feet. Bedroom counts on those same cards run from 3 to 5. Read the house, not the range.
All six parcels are improved. This is not an open lot phase. The 2016 amount on 239 Regatta Road predates that house.
Water orientation is lot by lot even though every card says lakefront. Frontage length, seawall, and any dock are not on the cards used here.

There is no condo, townhome, or patio-home section in this subdivision record.

Neighborhood Amenities

The amenity in the record is the lakefront lot, not a club campus.

No community beach, boat ramp, pool, clubhouse, or golf course is identified for Regatta Shores in the county layers used here
Regatta Road runs through this address range on the county roads layer (house numbers 201-361 on that segment), unincorporated, road class 3, posted 30 mph. A gate is not established. A through road is not the same thing as a private enclave gate
Restrictions book 17999, page 251 is stored on the subdivision polygon. The document was not reviewed, and it is not in the March 2026 restrictions index under the name Regatta Shores

If a seller's packet shows a shared dock, a private road agreement, or an assessment, the packet wins over this page.

Shopping, Dining, and Recreation

Day-to-day errands for this peninsula usually mean Irmo and the Harbison corridor, including Columbiana Centre to the east. Columbiana Centre is about 5 miles east of these parcels in a straight line. That is not a drive time and not a promise about traffic on River Road or I-26.

On-site recreation is whatever the individual lakefront lot allows. Off site, the rest of Lake Murray's ramps, marinas, and restaurants are still a drive when you do not have a usable dock at the house. Confirm dock permits, trailer plans, and guest rules before you treat the lot as a marina.

Home Prices

There is no honest single price range for Regatta Shores in the record assembled here. Six custom lakefront houses do not make an average, and three of the latest county sale amounts are nominal.

Use Market Data for the figures this page will stand behind: $1,300,000 recorded for 303 Regatta Road on March 30, 2022, and $1,575,000 recorded for 307 Regatta Road on November 13, 2023. The $225,000 figure dated August 24, 2016, on 239 Regatta Road is earlier than that house. The $1 and $5 entries on the other three parcels are not prices.

Build a pricing opinion from these two sales only as a starting point, then from other close-in Lake Murray lakefront comps, adjusted for frontage, dock rights, square footage, and condition. Ignore undated web pages that quote a median near $340,000 for a different description of this name.

Waterfront Homes

Regatta Shores is on Lake Murray. It is not an inland neighborhood a short drive from the water, and it is not a river community. The county types every one of the six parcels LAKEFRONT - IMPROVED. That is a direct-lakefront classification, not a note that the neighborhood shares a beach.

A lakefront card still does not answer the questions that change value:

How much shoreline is on the survey, and is it usable?
Is there a dock, and is the permit current with the lake manager?
Is any dock private to the lot, or shared with another owner?
What is the water depth at the lot, and what does the view look like in summer?

No community beach, courtesy dock, or boat ramp is documented for this six-lot plat in the sources used here. Older ads for vacant lots on this road are not a current dock inventory. The houses were built years ago.

Lake Murray Access

Classify Regatta Shores as direct lakefront on the recorded lots:

On the county cards: all six parcels are lakefront and improved
Not established: a community marina, a shared ramp, a beach, wet slips for the street, or a private dock on every lot
Beyond the lot: the rest of Lake Murray's public ramps and marinas are a separate trip if the house dock is missing, shallow, or restricted

Buyers who want a staffed amenity campus, or a shared beach and ramp with interior lots, are looking at a different product. Compare those neighborhoods on water rights, not on the word "lake" alone.

Location and Commute

Address points for this subdivision cluster around 34.077 N, 81.245 W. That is the east end of Lake Murray, on Regatta Road, in unincorporated Lexington County, ZIP 29212. House number 228 Regatta Road, next door in the numbering, is in Regatta Forest, not Regatta Shores. A 2015 LandTech release about neighboring Regatta Forest placed that project at the River Road and Regatta Road intersection, beside Saint Michaels Lutheran Church, on a peninsula near the Lake Murray Dam, just outside the Irmo town limits. The same release described that site as about a four-mile drive to the center of Irmo and about 14 miles to downtown Columbia. Those figures are the developer's description of the neighboring project, not a timed drive from each Regatta Shores driveway.

I-26 is the regional route toward Columbia and the Harbison interchanges. Actual time depends on River Road, the dam crossing you choose, and rush hour. Tour the commute at the hour you drive.

The Patrick O'Connor Team's 2026 Lake Murray relocation guide groups Regatta Shores with the Irmo and Ballentine side of the lake, alongside Harbour Point, Yacht Cove, and Harbour Watch. That is a market grouping. It does not change the Columbia 29212 mailing address.

Nearby Neighborhoods to Compare

Useful comparisons are about water rights and scale, not a ranked list of places to live. Harbour Point and Yacht Cove are the closest other recorded neighborhoods, within about a mile, and they do not have neighborhood pages on this site. Regatta Forest and Regatta Pointe are separate subdivisions and are not linked below.

Boardwalk Villas — Lake Murray villas nearer the dam, a different product from these six houses
Harbour Place — Lexington County Lake Murray community a few miles from this peninsula
Kingston Harbour — larger Lexington lake community with its own access story
The Landings — another Lexington Lake Murray neighborhood, not this six-lot plat

More context sits on the Neighborhoods hub.

Buying a Home in Regatta Shores

A practical checklist for a six-house lakefront street:

Confirm the legal description is Regatta Shores in Columbia 29212, Lexington County — not Regatta Forest, not Regatta Pointe, and not a Regatta in another state
Read the survey for shoreline, easements, and whether 307 and 307A are one lot
Ask for any dock permit, seawall, and boat-lift rules. The county card does not list them
Pull restrictions book 17999, page 251, and ask whether any association or road assessment exists. No dues amount is published here
Confirm school assignment for the address with Lexington-Richland School District Five. The locator result is in the FAQ. It is not a reason, by itself, to choose the street
Price from the two recorded home sales in Market Data, then from similar close-in lakefront comps. Do not blend in Regatta Forest sales or inland Irmo production homes
Budget mortgage, taxes, insurance, flood review if the survey warrants it, and any assessment that turns up in the covenants
Drive Regatta Road and the commute to work at the hour you actually travel

Selling a Home in Regatta Shores

Sellers on a six-house lakefront street win by being precise. Buyers will ask how much shoreline the survey shows, what the dock permit allows, and how this house differs from 303 and 307 Regatta Road, the two county-recorded sales this page cites. Marketing that borrows a price from Regatta Forest, or from an old web median, invites the wrong showings.

Price from those recorded sales only as history, then from truly similar Lake Murray lakefront homes. Put frontage, living area, and any association rules in writing. The Patrick O'Connor Team can build that packet and the launch plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Regatta Shores in Irmo or Columbia?

The mailbox city is Columbia, SC 29212, in unincorporated Lexington County. The houses are not inside the Town of Irmo, and they are not in Ballentine ZIP 29063. Buyers still look for them with the close-in Irmo side of Lake Murray, which is why the page title says Irmo. Use Columbia 29212 on forms.

Is Regatta Shores the same as Regatta Forest or Regatta Point?

No. County maps keep Regatta Shores as its own six-lot subdivision on Regatta Road (231 through 307). Regatta Forest is the newer subdivision next door, including 228 Regatta Road, with its own restrictions. Regatta Pointe is a separate restrictions entry, and Regatta phases 1 through 4 are the older sections on Regatta Court and higher Regatta Road numbers. Search the legal name or you will price the wrong street.

Are the homes on the water?

The county property type on all six parcels is lakefront improved. That is direct lakefront classification, not a community-dock note. It does not state frontage length or that every house has a permitted private dock. Read the survey for the address you are buying.

How many homes are in Regatta Shores?

The county subdivision layer says 6 lots, and six parcel cards match. Address point 307A is on the 307 parcel. It is not a seventh lot. Years built on the cards run from 2017 through 2020.

Is there a gate or an HOA fee?

A gate is not established. Regatta Road is on the county roads layer through this block, with a 30 mph speed on that segment. The subdivision layer stores restrictions book 17999, page 251, but that instrument was not read here, and the March 2026 restrictions index does not title a document Regatta Shores. No dues amount is published on this page. Ask for the recorded restrictions and any current assessment.

What schools does the district locator show?

On October 2, 2026, Lexington-Richland School District Five's SchoolSearch, for both 231 and 303 Regatta Road, returned attendance-area schools Irmo Elementary, Irmo Middle, and Irmo High, and it also tagged CrossRoads Intermediate. The district's 2026-27 zoning page says intermediate schools were being removed and Crossroads was becoming a middle-school academy that families apply for. Confirm the address with the district. Assignment is not a ranking and not a promise.

What have homes sold for?

This page does not publish an average. County cards show $1,300,000 for 303 Regatta Road on March 30, 2022, and $1,575,000 for 307 Regatta Road on November 13, 2023. A $225,000 entry on 239 Regatta Road is dated August 24, 2016, before that house's 2018 year built. Three other parcels show $1 or $5. Those are not market sales. No active listing was verified for this guide on October 2, 2026.

How is this different from Boardwalk Villas or Kingston Harbour?

Regatta Shores is six lakefront houses on Regatta Road with no documented community beach or ramp. Boardwalk Villas and Kingston Harbour are other Lexington County Lake Murray communities with their own lot pattern and access. Compare shoreline and house type, not just the lake.

The Patrick O'Connor Team publishes Regatta Shores information and updates and works with home buyers and sellers on Lake Murray and across the Midlands of South Carolina.
