Immediate occupancy! Enjoy this spring and summer! Waterfront homes on scenic Lake Keowee’s northern shores are inherently desirable, but this home stands apart even from such prestigious peers. One of only three homes on a cloistered peninsula in The Cliffs at Keowee Falls, the lovingly maintained residence spreads across a gentle rise of just under an acre. Both the front and the back of the home are leisurely steps from the lake. On one side lies a protected, deep-water cove with a covered dock in a very private and quiet location, away from other boat traffic. The other side renders a wide channel with long lake vistas, complete with a waterside flagstone terrace for taking in the astounding views. Fastidiously groomed, hardwood-shaded paths and stone steps gracefully wind throughout the property, complemented by landscaping with native rhododendrons, various evergreens, boulder-lined retaining walls, and an impressive water feature with bubbling falls and pond. The home’s fully-furnished interior opens to a great room with immense stone columns and fireplace and showcases the lake’s azure waters through a two-story wall of windows. Rustic Brazilian cherry floors line the living areas, which flow to the kitchen with double-level island, custom cherry cabinetry, and black soapstone apron sink, as well as to the dining room displaying several of the home’s hand-crafted Stickley pieces. The main level also holds a study and generous master suite with terrace access. Upstairs are two bedrooms with en suite baths, and a bonus room spanning the three-car garage below. With both interior and exterior access, and with a private bath and kitchenette, the bonus room offers numerous possibilities. Outdoor living areas incorporate a large terrace and adjoining screened porch with fireplace. In addition to the aforementioned furnishings, the purchase price includes all contents (minus personal affects), for a truly turn-key, ready-to-enjoy-NOW, opportunity. Coupled with The Cliffs at Keowee Fall’s full suite of country-club amenities, this move-in ready home has everything needed to make your first of many memories infused with Lake Keowee’s charms.
