Discover a unique property in Upstate SC's rolling hills! This expansive 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath residence is situated on one of the highest elevations of this property, offering nearly 34 acres of land that guarantees privacy. The property features extensive frontage along a wide inlet of water running down one side and into Lake Hartwell across the road. The current owners enjoy kayaking in this waterway, which leads under a bridge into the lake where a picturesque waterfall can be found nearby. The highlight of this property is the breathtaking view of the lake, framed by layered mountains in the background. These unobstructed vistas can be appreciated from the main floor, including the living room, kitchen areas, 40-foot covered porch, and primary bedroom. Similarly, on the basement level, two of the four bedrooms, another 40-foot covered porch, and the main living area also capture this magnificent scenery. Each evening, residents are treated to beautiful sunsets.Multiple potential homesites exist on this property, with at least one offering the same stunning view after minimal tree clearing. A wide trail/driveway circles through the property, extending down to the water and leading to a section of land suitable for pasture. Another trail on the backside of this area further extends into the property.Hunting enthusiasts will enjoy the deer, wild turkey and occasional hog. Owner watches the deer from the covered porch. You can also fish from the back where they put their kayaks in.The owners have meticulously maintained this home and implemented numerous enhancements. The residence boasts a rustic aesthetic both inside and out. Recent upgrades include a brand-new gas stove/range in the kitchen and an unused Generac whole-house generator ensuring uninterrupted electricity supply. All rooms are generously sized, with the great room, including the kitchen & dining area, measuring 37 feet by 35 feet, creating a beautiful open space that takes advantage of the view.Additionally, a new building constructed on a concrete pad provides covered parking on both sides for recreational items.
