Imagine your own private mountaintop retreat on 8.5 acres in the midst of all SC’s gorgeous hiking and waterfalls!! This pristine log cabin set in the woods overlooking a valley feels like you don’t even have neighbors. But in reality, you’re just 20 min from downtown Travelers Rest and all it has to offer! You drive up the mountain on private neighborhood roads past ponds, undisturbed natural beauty, and a few hidden homes to your covered rocking chair front porch, facing Glassy Mountain. Your front door opens to a two story living area with a soaring rock chimney and hearth with a wood stove. The upstairs windows bring natural light into the space all day long, and the loft area provides extra living space in the same area. Behind the living room, a kitchen with beautiful custom wood cabinetry shows off new granite countertops. A half bath nearby adds convenience for your guests. The breakfast area opens into a large sunroom with breathtaking winter views of the valley nearby and Paris Mountain in the distance, that brings nature inside all summer long. A screened porch off the sunroom is perfect to enjoy our temperate SC springs and falls. Back inside, the main level also features a large den, two bedrooms, and two full baths. Every room has a perfect view of the surrounding land through high quality Andersen windows. The primary suite on the main level has a jetted tub, separate shower, double vanity with new granite, and a walk in closet. Upstairs off the loft is a third bedroom, third bath, and an additional spacious office/bonus room. Outside, there is a two car attached garage for storage, a detached shed for projects and wood storage, and a beautiful fire pit just up the granite outcropping. And if storage catches your attention, don't forget the huge walk-in attic at the top of the stairs! Surrounding lands are other large neighborhood lots and Camp Old Indian. Your home should be protected from nearby development for many years. Come sit a spell and picture your life here! Your stress will lower every time you look out the window or breathe deeply of the fresh mountain air. With a well and septic already in place, all you’d need to add to be completely off the grid is solar. Recent updates include roof (2022), HVAC (2021), new well pump and tanks (2022), paved drive (2022), and fresh new paint throughout! Located just 8 min to North Greenville University, 30 min to Greer or Hendersonville, and 45 min to downtown Greenville. Let's take a look!
