This architecturally designed, Don Snyder crafted manor home is situated on a deep water, lakefront home site facing the state park, and includes two adjoining home sites for total privacy of just under 4 acres. The Vineyards clubhouse lies a short, 5-minute golf cart ride (cart included) away, while the second tee is fewer than a few hundred steps distant. The quiet cove location is pristine and serene; the water is emerald green and gin clear. A solid stone exterior and slate roof ensure years of low maintenance living. From the winding paver drive and oversized motor court to the paver cart path for shoreline and covered slip (with boat lift) golf cart access, no detail has been overlooked.
Having five bedrooms and six-and-one half baths, this 6,000 sq ft residence is both free-flowing and inviting, impressive yet intimate. The front door opens to an interior vista: a post and beam cathedral ceiling, floor to ceiling stone fireplace, rustic Brazilian cherry floors, and disappearing patio doors that open to a retractable screen porch, with additional stone fireplace and impressive lake views. The great room, dining room and gourmet kitchen flow seamlessly together, allowing unencumbered movement and entertainment throughout the home's spacious main level. A custom bar tucked neatly into the great room and dining area hosts a Sub Zero ice machine, wine fridges, and lockable liquor storage. A sublime main floor office with wrought iron sliding barn door, custom shelving and bookcases and ensuite bath, could function as a sixth bedroom, and is conveniently located with a back entrance to the kitchen. The former is expansive and well equipped with top-of-the-line appliances including a Sub Zero fridge and separate freezer with four additional refrigeration drawers, an oversized Wolf gas range with two full sized ovens, and two Miele dishwashers to handle large dinner gatherings. Abundant storage, a pantry, keeping room, and granite center island anchor this ideal-for-entertaining space, while custom window treatments contribute a casual flair to the décor. The main floor master, spa-inspired en suite bathroom and oversized closet with customized storage and built-ins, round out the main level floor plan.
The walk out lower-level is imbued with natural light in this east/southeast facing home, illuminating four large bedroom suites (each with up-to-date bathroom décor), which parameterize the recreation space. An integrated refreshment area is furnished with a third Miele dishwasher, sink, and ample storage for stemware, while the mechanical room has an exterior door for easy access for stowage of gardening tools and dock toys. Lastly, a custom PGA tour-quality putting green is accessed through French doors from the recreation room. Coupled with the lower-level bar, this most popular games area is sure to please family and friends alike.
Situated in one of Lake Keowee's most sought after communities, with the lake's number one rated golf course, two operational restaurants, full-service marina, equestrian and fitness centers, this Cliffs at Keowee Vineyards residence is ideal for either full time or second home living.
