Nearly 16 private acres. No HOA. Less than a mile from the Swamp Rabbit Trail and just minutes from Downtown Travelers Rest. This custom-built, one-owner home offers the space and privacy of country living without giving up the convenience of being close to everything you love about Travelers Rest. A winding gravel drive carries you away from the road and through the property before arriving at the home, where a long covered front porch sets the tone for a place designed to slow down and stay awhile. Step inside to a wide foyer and a thoughtfully designed floor plan with hardwood floors throughout the entire home and plenty of room to gather. The spacious formal dining room is ready for holidays and family dinners, while the vaulted living room is filled with natural light and anchored by a stone-surround gas pellet stove that adds warmth and character. The kitchen was designed with real life in mind, offering abundant cabinetry, generous prep space, a gas cooktop, center work island, serving bar with seating, and a breakfast area overlooking the property. Just beyond the kitchen, an oversized walk-in mudroom/laundry/pantry adds incredible everyday function with washer and dryer connections, utility sink, extensive cabinetry, and a clever storage system that opens to reveal even more space for dry goods and household necessities. Stretching across much of the back of the home is a huge covered deck overlooking the rear grounds—a space made for outdoor dinners, rocking chairs, entertaining, or morning coffee while deer and wild turkeys wander through the property. With nearly 16 acres surrounding you, there is room to garden, explore, play, or simply enjoy having space between you and the rest of the world. The main-level primary suite features a double trey ceiling, two walk-in closets and the unusual luxury of two separate bathrooms, each with its own vanity and toilet—one with a shower and the other with a tub/shower combination. Two additional bedrooms are located on the main level, including one that could easily serve as a home office, and another with convenient access to a full bath. And then there is the second floor. With easy access from the home's “friends and family” entrance, this incredibly flexible space could become a second primary suite, in-law or multigenerational quarters, private guest retreat, teen space, hobby room or simply a place to spread out. The large bedroom/flex space includes a window nook overlooking the grounds, walk-in closet and private full bath. The storage space is almost as impressive as the living space. Two enormous walk-in attic areas offer an extraordinary amount of floored storage, including one that is insulated and maintains temperatures similar to the interior of the home. Down below, an encapsulated crawl space with dehumidifier adds another thoughtful improvement. Outside, the possibilities continue. A detached two-car garage provides additional parking, workshop or hobby space, while a one-of-a-kind rock house tucked onto the property is waiting for someone with a little imagination to decide what it becomes next. Established producing fig trees, black walnut, blueberries, asparagus and rosemary are already part of the landscape, and deer, wild turkeys and birds are frequent visitors. With extensive storage inside and out, an oversized septic system designed to accommodate a larger household, flexible spaces for multigenerational living, and acreage that offers both open areas and wooded privacy, this property gives its next owner room to create a lifestyle that is entirely their own. Spend the morning on the Swamp Rabbit Trail, meet friends for lunch in Downtown Travelers Rest, and come home to nearly 16 acres where the road disappears behind you. You don't have to choose between privacy and convenience here—you get to have both!
