Property Description

Back on the market at NO fault to the sellers! Set on over 3 acres of privacy, this traditional Cape Cod blends classic charm with thoughtful updates and spaces designed for modern living. Gorgeous trees along the extended driveway and a large wrap-around porch welcomes you in, perfect for morning coffee, evening relaxation, or entertaining across all seasons. Inside, the home opens to a vaulted living room with built-in bookshelves, brick fireplace, and in-wall surround sound, creating a comfortable gathering space filled with natural light. The kitchen is generous in size, offering plenty of storage, a built-in desk area, and a layout that effortlessly accommodates family meals or entertaining. The south-facing sunroom with new luxury vinyl plank flooring captures winter sunlight, doubles as a cozy workout or plant space, and serves as a welcoming transition from the backyard. The main house features three bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, including a first floor primary suite with porch access and a custom closet. A 9’x10’ office or craft room offers flexible space for work or hobbies. The main level also has an attached one-bedroom, one-bath in-law suite with a full kitchen, living area, and private entrance has a separate electric meter and has previously been used as an Airbnb, averaging approximately $6,000 per year. An above-ground pool with a connecting deck invites summer enjoyment, while a fully fenced backyard ensures privacy. Mature fig trees produce an abundant harvest each year, and a new wood shed with power adds both extra storage and functionality. A 50A portable generator hookup ties into the main panel for peace of mind during storms and a 12kW portable generator is negotiable with the sale of the home. Car enthusiasts, hobbyists, or anyone who values space will appreciate the detached oversize two-car garage with a 23’x15’ heated and cooled workshop. Professionally installed epoxy flooring, metal storage systems, wood workbenches, and built-in speakers in the garage and workshop make this area as functional as it is impressive. Additional updates in the home include new vinyl windows, a new garage roof, a new HVAC unit in the sunroom, and smart thermostats for modern comfort. 2G Fiber Internet is now available as well! The property’s location balances privacy with convenience. Nearby Lake Robinson offers fishing, kayaking, paddleboarding, and picnics, while downtown Travelers Rest, downtown Greer, and Paris Mountain are all within 20 minutes, providing restaurants, shops, trails, and outdoor recreation. Every detail of this home is designed to enhance daily life and this property offers a lifestyle that seamlessly blends comfort, functionality, and enjoyment throughout the year.
