The Reserve at Lake Keowee

Just two hours from Atlanta, Georgia and Charlotte, North Carolina, The Reserve at Lake Keowee is a private lakefront community located on Lake Keowee in Sunset, South Carolina. The Reserve was developed by Greenwood Communities and Resorts, which has been family owned since 1978 by the Self family. Greenwood Communities and Resorts are well-known for their commitment to developing properties to the best possible advantage with regard to an area’s natural beauty while steadfastly incorporating the principles of intelligent, sustainable land planning.

This fabulous master-planned community that sits on 3,900 acres of lush vegetation and has placed over 550 acres in perpetual conservation easement for future generations of property owners to enjoy. Lake Keowee is a 18,500 acre lake fed by mountain streams. It is ideally situated at the end of the Blue Ridge Escarpment, which is the southern end of the Appalachian Mountains, and easily accessed via Scenic Highway 11.

Needless to say, it an angler’s delight and provides almost limitless recreation for lovers of water sports or those in need of relaxation.

Golf

Jack Nicklaus utilized the natural features typical of the foothills and the Blue Ridge Escarpment region – sloping terrain, lake and mountain views and mature forests of mixed hardwoods and pines – in designing a gorgeous 18-hole Signature Golf Course.

The course encompasses 5 sets of tees, including new beginner tees, and enjoys a dramatic lakefront finish. Check out the signature 15th hole!

The exterior blends thick wavy-edge pine siding, shake roof, and Doggett Mountain stone accents. Extensive boulder retaining walls line portions of the drive and motor court. Lakefront outdoor living areas occupy the home’s rear and side: A broad main-level covered deck wraps to a screened porch with stone fireplace, the ideal spot for toasting sunsets year-round. A stone terrace follows the same footprint on the lower level.

A hefty stone fireplace, tongue-and-groove ceiling, and hand-scraped flooring lend a rustic mood to the light-filled space. Pella doors and windows outline the views with quality. Outfitted with Thermador and Bosch appliances, farmhouse sink, and hall pantry, the kitchen is defined by an angled granite island with counter-height seating.

Lake Keowee offers some of the best lake and golf gated communities in the South. Only one offers a true “village” concept for those who also desire a small-town atmosphere and convenience. The Reserve at Lake Keowee was developed on such a concept with “The Great Lawn” being the heart of the community/village. The Great Lawn presides over the beauty of Lake Keowee stretching from the Clubhouse at the elevated end of the lush Great Lawn to the 2 majestic stone pavilions overlooking an amphitheater style gathering place and the marina below. A select few homes line the Great Lawn and enjoy the park like setting as well as amazing convenience. The clubhouse, driving range, market, pool complex, meeting hall and tennis complex are all in walking distance to these homes. The new fitness complex is close enough to walk but for those who prefer, a golf cart is the ultimate transportation to all amenities! Park in the garage upon arrival and don’t start the car again until you leave. The Great Lawn homes were designed by renowned Atlanta architect Keith Summerour to compliment the setting. Summerour’s signature architectural details include arched doorways, inviting porches and zero wasted space. This home has three spacious, very private suites. There is also a bedroom on the main level. The Great Room, Dining and Kitchen are open yet delineated spaces that work as one when gathering with friends and family. At the Great Room end, a wood burning fireplace contributes to the ambience. At the kitchen end an oversized island, wet bar/serving buffet and butler pantry nook make entertaining a pleasure. An inviting wood paneled den at the front of the home spills out onto the front porch via French Doors and offers a comfortable option for watching a game or taking in a movie. At the lake, you tend to want to spend time outside. When seeking privacy, the screened porch complete with stone fireplace is perfect and complimented by an adjoining open deck. Prefer to take in any activity that might be happening on the Great Lawn? The front porch spans the width of the home and can be accessed via two sets of French doors as well as the front door. The bedroom suites are impressive. Spacious and private where overnight guests are spoiled. The master suite spans the front of the home and enjoys a dedicated covered porch with Great Lawn views and accessed via French doors from the bedroom and another set leading out from the expansive bathroom. The second suite on this level spans the rear of the home. These two suites are separated by a wide hall and a convenient laundry room. The third suite is accessed via a private staircase and can be closed off from the rest of the home. Large enough for a king bed plus bunks, it makes a wonderful family suite. The fourth suite is on the main level with access to covered porch via French doors. This room could also be used as an office if desired. Speaking of beds, this home is being sold furnished (see Schedule A for exceptions). Close and move in the same day. Still time to own for the winter holidays when the Great Lawn rivals a scene from Norman Rockwell. Forth of July brings explosions of not only fireworks but activities on The Great Lawn and at the resort style pool. Enjoy year round activities, a strong sense of community and outstanding amenities at a compelling value in this right size, right location home! $898,000 Active

The timelessness of shiplap blends with lake chic accents in perfect balance. Bright and spacious interior, stone front elevation, privacy and convenience and overlooking a golf course view without being in “play” makes this home a remarkable value. Recessed from the road in an inviting paver courtyard setting, the stone exterior and minimal low maintenance hardi plank appeals to those who prefer to enjoy life at the lake over upkeep. Location is key in real estate and being able to walk to the amenities checks that box. A short golf cart ride up the street provides access to the cart path to take you to the clubhouse and amenities or out to the course. Anyone who enjoys an invigorating walk can get there almost as fast. Set on over 2 acres, and encompassing 5000+SF, the home boasts 5 BR plus custom bunk room and full baths for all. The substantial wooden double door entry sets the stage for the quality within. The white shiplap wainscot in the Dining Room and white washed wood plank vaulted ceiling in the Great Room combine with abundant natural light from the windows to greet you likes a breath of fresh air. The semi open plan flows seamlessly from dining to great room and into the kitchen. The bar counter in the kitchen keeps it separate but in view. It allows the fireplace ambience to be enjoyed from the kitchen. The large breakfast area at one end overlooks the yard and course view. The master suite stretches along one end of the home overlooking views and enjoys access to the screened porch. His and her walk-in closets have built in storage to maximize space. His and her vanities and abundant use of tile in the bathroom highlight the attention to detail. The extent of tile in most bathrooms is impressive and at wainscot height in several, cleaning becomes breeze. A second ensuite bedroom on the main level, an often-sought-after feature, boasts a private deck. Also, on the main level is one of two laundry rooms, powder room and garage access. Enjoy impressive outdoor space on both levels; vaulted wood ceiling on the main level screened porch and equally sizeable open porch below. The lower porch stairs access a huge flagstone patio with wrought iron fencing that creates a safe play area for kids and pets. With gates at each end, your entertainment options easily expand to the level yard that is perfect for your game/gathering of choice. If you have an interest in a swimming pool this yard can accommodate virtually any configuration you can design. The Terrace Level will delight family and friends lucky enough to be invited. As you descend the wide staircase, the Family Room with fireplace, sliding doors that open to the porch, refreshment bar and pool table area comes into view. A full kitchen, possible wine room or large pantry is tucked behind the family room for convenience without prominence. Guests will delight in this independent service option that does not intrude upon the hosts, at least for those who hope for a return invitation! A secondary laundry facility expands that appreciative guest possibility and practically assures being invited again. Three ensuite bedrooms plus a custom-built bunk room provide terrific accommodations for adults and children. Built in pieces in most bedrooms preclude the need for extensive furnishings. A multi-purpose room could be used as an exercise room or media room which would round out the superior space on this level. Be sure and watch the video tour that captures the essence of this home’s amazing setting! All this just a short ride to The Reserve at Lake Keowee’s impressive amenities.
