Overview
Waterviews abound from all three levels of this bright, and spacious log home at the water's edge, radiating cottage appeal, and all of the casual ambience that you'd expect from your home sweet home on beautiful Lake Keowee. Aptly named ""Tongass"", the native word for ""people of the water"", which could be you, your family, and the many fortunate friends who will visit, and never wish to leave. A boatslip labeled as 3b, for 225 conveys, as well as use of the private boat ramp owned by the Serenity Bay Association. Well-maintained inside, and out, this lovely 3 bedroom (plus loft) cottage offers main level living, and boasting an open floor plan with soaring cathedral, wood plank ceiling, full wall of tinted, glass windows for lots of natural light, and views (even from the upper level), great room with gas-log fireplace(propane), dining, and kitchen areas with direct access to the huge, screened porch, and 10'x43' deck with retractable, power awning (both deck and screened porch have wonderful water views), powder room, and master suite with double sink vanity, separate shower, and jetted tub. The upper level offers a bedroom, bath, loft(futon works well for extra guests), closet, and hidden storage area. The walkout level has all of the charm of the main level with open layout (10' ceiling), and epitomizes the lakefront lifestyle of entertaining with a sweet, wood-top bar (ice machine, microwave, beverage chiller and fridge), recreation area with glass door access to huge 10'x43' deck with fabulous lakeviews, guest room, full bath, laundry(there is an additional option for laundry on main level), and mechanical/workshop area. The lower deck has an outdoor shower, 10x10 storage shed, and stairway to the lakeside fire pit, and beach area. The craftsmanship is evident in the natural ash, wide plank flooring, pine plank ceilings, solid wood doors throughout, and solid cedar accent door frames. The lower level is already plumbed for propane connection, should someone wish to add a fireplace. There is a whole house water filtration system. All of the furnishings can convey with a separate bill of sale, with a list of exclusions available upon request. The Serenity Bay homeowner association maintains the grounds, boat slips, ramp, and common areas. The association dues are $3,150 per year. This lakefront property would be a wonderful primary home, vacation home away from home, and/or a leased property for investment purposes (Serenity Bay Association has neighborhood rental rules, and regulations). Rental rates can run $2,000-$2,300 per wk, $300+ per night. All of the relaxation and fun that a lakefront home can offer, plus close proximity to town, and convenience to shopping, medical care, entertainment, and restaurants!
