In South Carolina, a Palatial Lakefront Home With Private Boathouse Asks $2.8M
Nature lovers will go gaga over the lush landscaping and outdoor amenities.
Boasting lake and mountain views, this waterfront property pairs a sense of grandeur with slow living. It has features of the loveliest landscaping on Lake Keowee, including plentiful flowers, mature bushes, and multiple sparkling water features.
The property opens with a spacious driveway, three-car garage, and an additional carport, perfect for welcoming guests. Enter the home through castle-like doors and be met with European columns, grand light fixtures, and a winding staircase lined with a curving stone wall.
To the left of the entrance, a cozy office with hardwood flooring and an apron ceiling awaits, alongside stylish touches like a sliding ladder lining the bookshelves. On the opposite side, a formal dining area seamlessly flows into the great room, complete with glass doors that lead to the upper-level deck.
The sweeping deck—with phantom screens that can be raised or lowered—offers views of the lake and nearby mountains. The kitchen is a haven for any chef with cream-colored cabinetry, built-in appliances, gas cooktop, an island with barstools, and a custom wood-paneled fridge and freezer.
Connected to the kitchen is a second dining area framed by expansive windows looking out to lake views. Adjacent to the kitchen is a warm reception salon with a stone fireplace, providing the perfect space for mingling with guests after a dinner party. Tucked smartly off of the kitchen is a convenient desk nook, a side screened-in porch, and a garage with ample storage space and a workbench with sink.
The main-level primary suite takes up the opposite wing of the home. This luxury suite has high ceilings, plush carpeting, and a private sitting area that looks out over the lake and mountains. The spa-like primary bathroom has dual vanities, a deep soaking tub with jets, separate water closet, and a walk-in tiled shower with built-in bench. It also connects to a powder room and elongated walk-in closet, which leads directly to the laundry room for added functionality.
Descend the swirling staircase to the lower terrace level to find the ultimate entertainment hub. This amenity-rich area features a pool table and game room space, a long sleek bar with stools, a secondary kitchen with a refrigerator and dishwasher, and a wine cellar with curling iron gates. The cozy media room with an adjacent double-sided fireplace completes this space. Also on this level are four guest rooms, two with private full baths and two sharing a dual-vanity bathroom.
Outside, an entertaining oasis awaits with an outdoor kitchen with built-in grill, stone firepit, built-in hot tub, outdoor shower, and additional stone patio near the lake’s edge. Terraced stone walkways, multiple waterfalls, and storybook-like wooden doors with hidden storage create a lush sanctuary amid blooming florals and ferns.
Topping it off is a private boathouse with a lift, sun deck, and two swim ladders. Enjoy a short boat ride to nearby lakeside restaurants like The Lighthouse, and take advantage of the convenience of nearby marinas for refueling your boat.
