Property Description

Once in a generation, a private estate emerges where history, craftsmanship, and natural beauty converge—159 Burdine Creek is exactly that. Set on 6.2 acres of wooded trails, open pasture, a natural rock waterfall, a flowing creek, and a clear swimming hole, this extraordinary property offers rare seclusion and modern comfort. The centerpiece is a 5,900+ SF architect-designed European residence accompanied by 1790s mill-site stone walls, meandering wood-chip paths, a self-cleaning in-ground pool, and over 3,100 SF of garage/storage space. Thoughtful engineering, with geothermal heating/cooling and a secondary biomass boiler, ensures exceptionally low costs. A long private drive leads into the estate, opening to a circular drive and a striking façade with ornate gables, dormers, copper awnings, stone walls, rustic shutters, and a brick walkway to the grand entrance. Inside, the main level showcases rich artistry with hardwood floors, solid pine columns, wood ceiling beams, wrought iron lighting, and limewash walls that frame the light-filled formal sitting/dining rooms. The home then leads to a huge great room with a cathedral tongue-and-groove ceiling and anchored by a warm stone fireplace, built-in solid wood cabinetry, and exposed beams that give the space its refined character.The kitchen blends European elegance with modern function, offering solid-wood cabinetry, glass-door accents, ivory tile flooring, light granite countertops, a corner pantry, a full butler’s pantry and so much more. Bar seats and a bright breakfast area overlook the heated pool, with access to a stunning screened porch. In a private wing, the primary suite is pure serenity with brand-new cream carpeting, a wood-surround fireplace, built-in TV cabinet, and tranquil views where the sound of the waterfall carries through open windows. A private attached office studio/nursery opens to the screened porch, while 2 walk-in closets house endless storage. The renovated 2025 primary bath feels like a luxury spa with 2 oversized custom wood vanities, ivory marble tile across floors/walls, a massive double-head shower with stunning mosaic accents, and a soaking tub framed by large corner windows overlooking the wooded landscape. This wing also has an impressive executive office or library enveloped in floor-to-ceiling bookcases, a warm fireplace and lots of sun. On the opposite wing lay 2 bedroom suites, each with an attached study space and renovated en-suite baths, creating comfort and privacy for guests. Downstairs, the 1,900+ SF basement lives like its own residence, with a living room, kitchenette with sink and refrigerator (wired for a stove), a full bath, and a huge game room that could easily convert into 4th/5th bedrooms. This level has over 600+ SF of unfinished storage, a 200+ SF utility/pool room, and an impressive 1,300+ SF oversized garage workshop/gym with its own driveway, plus an additional 900+ SF 2-car garage on the main level.Outdoors, the estate transforms into a getaway retreat. The in-ground pool, updated in 2025, sparkles in an expansive concrete terrace and a brick wood-burning fireplace with peaceful views to the creek. No neighboring homes are visible—only herons, deer, and wild turkey. Burdine Creek flows along 2 sides of the land at a rate of 1.4 million gal/day, feeding the waterfall/swimming area. Trails wind through woods and pass the 1790's mill-site ruins. Approx 1.2 acres of pasture house RV storage with 50-amp service and a creek-fed pump system for gardening/irrigation. Engineered as a “100-year home,” the site features spray-foam insulation, extra-wide attic beams for full access, stone construction, and a Water Furnace geothermal system replaced in 2018. Despite its profound privacy, the estate is located 10 min from Hwy 123 & Downtown Easley, under 30 min to Downtown Greenville, and 30 min to Clemson. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own an estate where history, natural beauty, and luxury living intertwine.
