A winding, level, private drive through extensive, mature landscaping leads to this impressive Don Gardner designed timber framed Vineyards residence. Situated on one of the Vineyards' largest premium home sites, with expansive lake views and a very gentle slope to the private beach at water's edge, this open plan, 6,000 sq ft, 5 bdrm lake house makes an ideal family retreat or full time residence. Picture yourself in one of many outdoor living areas, overlooking a tranquil Lake Keowee, with the state park and Fazio golf course framing the backdrop. The "bowl" area of the Vineyards is set back from the main channel, yet is convenient to the Lake House Restaurant and is located just inside the community's principal gate. The home's newly renovated and expansive kitchen, outfitted with premium brand Wolf and Bosch appliances, adjoins an open dining area and a cozy side porch with stone fireplace that also doubles as a winter sun room. Above the 31/2 car garage lies a private bedroom suite, which can easily be transformed into a bunk room or children's retreat. A main floor master with adjacent sitting room is conveniently located off the great room along with a guest bedroom and private office. Two additional suites downstairs surround a beautiful stacked stone fireplace. A separate game room, bar area and extensive outdoor porches offer ample space for entertaining. Additional features include geothermal heating/cooling, dual water sources (city and private well), expansive workshop with separate storage area, exterior access to additional lower level storage for water toys and equipment, landscape irrigation from lake, beach side patio, red and white wine coolers at main level bar, a large cedar closet and epoxy garage floors. Fully updated with an architectural shingle roof, four seasons room, HVAC, master bath and new boat lift.
