This premier circa 1900 property, home of many past influential figures of Seneca, has been fully renovated with no details spared.

Featuring 4 bedrooms/ 2.5 baths in the main house and a separate guest suite, 7 full car garage and additional golf cart parking, cocktail pool and outdoor kitchen, this truly exemplifies luxury living in the south. Upon entering the gas lantern flanked front door and wrap around porch you will be greeted with gracious high ceilings (10 ft.) and original oak floors sourced from the Biltmore forest. The grand foyer leads you to the living room with double sided original brick fireplace featuring gas logs. The open concept dining/kitchen includes an abundance of cabinet space, hard marble countertops and stainless steel commercial grade appliances that are sure to be any cooks dream. Enjoy your morning coffee in the off kitchen breakfast nook while overlooking the court yard. Next you will enter the oversized mudroom with a built in drop zone and walk in pantry with custom cabinetry and tile backsplash. Natural slate tile leads you to the spacious laundry room with a soaking sink and an abundance of storage. The main level master greets you with an original brick fireplace and gas logs, artisan wainscoting and walk in closet. The en suite master bath is sure to be any homeowners dream - double vanities, water closet, dual head oversized shower and turn of the century claw foot tub. An oak staircase and whitewashed tongue and groove walls invite you upstairs to an additional 3 spacious bedrooms showcasing exposed brick and craftsman style built ins. An oversized second level bath includes a double vanity, convenient linen closet and tub/shower combo. A cozy office with French doors and exposed brick overlooks the court yard. Back on the main level the mahogany doors off the dining room open to the outdoor kitchen and living area which is any entertainers dream. There you will find a fourth fireplace, and a bank of cabinets with a built in grill/hood, sink and beverage refrigerator. Savor summer nights by the cocktail pool/water feature, or watching the sunset from the front patio graced with a fountain centerpiece. Enjoy the cooler months gathered around the natural gas fire pit or watching the game above the outdoor fireplace. An additional suite with a full bath and separate entry has direct access to the pool and courtyard, and is perfect for out of town guest, studio, gym…the options are endless. The attached epoxy floored garage includes (two) double car garages and a double half car garage for your golf cart, motorcycle or hobbies. A separate detached building contains an additional (3) single car bays and a separate electrical sub panel with both 110v/220v availability. A comprehensive to-the-stud renovation was completed on this home to include, new architectural shingle and metal roofs, all new plumbing, electrical and mechanical systems, new windows and doors and new cementitious lap siding. A fully irrigated, illuminated and landscaped yard with Zoysia grass, tasteful southern plant selections and New England pea gravel drive and walk ways make this house a showpiece property at all hours of the day. Minutes to Lake Keowee, Lake Hartwell and Clemson University. This treasure of a home is a blend of classic south and modern living. Luxury living with a quaint downtown feel makes this a one of a kind property that can not be passed up.
