One of the most distinctive Lake Keowee retreats, this exceptional one-owner lakefront home combines a remarkable setting, mountain and lake views, privacy, craftsmanship, and the lifestyle that makes Lake Keowee so special. Offered fully furnished with approximately 4,400 square feet, the home features five bedrooms, four and a half baths, a primary suite on the main level, and a versatile loft. Ideally positioned on the Greenville side of Lake Keowee, mid-lake and convenient to Old Edwards Reserve at Lake Keowee and The Cliffs at Keowee Springs, the property also allows short-term rentals, offering flexibility for personal enjoyment and rental potential. The setting is truly special. Tucked within an unusually spacious, protected cove, the lot extends subtly toward the lake, creating an almost peninsula-like feel with expansive water views, openness, and privacy without the exposure of a true peninsula property. Its eastern exposure welcomes beautiful morning light while offering natural protection from the prevailing direction of many storms and stronger weather systems. Perhaps most remarkable are the mountain and lake views from within a protected cove—a rare combination of calm water, beautiful scenery, privacy, and protection. Inside, the home reflects warm, timeless craftsmanship with post-and-beam construction, hickory floors, solid pine doors and trim on the main level, and wood ceilings in three rooms. Pella windows and oversized doors capture the surrounding scenery and bring the lake setting into the home. The main-level primary suite provides the convenience of everyday living on one floor, while additional bedrooms and the loft offer plenty of room for family and guests. The kitchen features granite countertops and two granite sinks, complemented by matching Arctic Pearl hand-blown glass chandeliers. Two wood-burning fireplaces with gas lighters—one in the family room and another on the upper rear deck—create inviting gathering spaces throughout the seasons. A Sonos sound system extends throughout the home, decks, and dock, making the property particularly well suited for entertaining and enjoying lake life indoors and out. A ThyssenKrupp elevator with a 950-pound capacity provides convenient access between levels. Additional features include a tankless gas water heater and Google Home/Nest exterior surveillance cameras at the front door, rear patio, and dock. Recent major improvements provide added peace of mind, including a new roof installed in 2025 and a new Generac 26kW Guardian Series whole-house standby generator installed in 2026. Outdoor living is at the heart of this property. Expansive decks provide wonderful spaces for relaxing and entertaining, while a fire pit with a gas lighter near the shoreline creates an inviting gathering place beside the water. The impressive 28’ x 28’ oversized covered dock with Ipe-style hardwood decking provides generous covered space for enjoying long days on Lake Keowee. An oversized two-car garage offers substantial storage, with one bay extended to accommodate boat storage, while an additional parking pad provides extra space for family and guests. More than its impressive features, this is a home with a story. Lovingly enjoyed by its original owner, it has been the setting for countless memories with family and friends—from days spent boating and enjoying the lake to evenings gathered around the fire and time together on the decks and dock. For those seeking the peacefulness and protection of a Lake Keowee cove without sacrificing open-water character, views, or convenience, this fully furnished home presents an unusually compelling opportunity. With its one-owner history, primary suite on the main level, mountain and lake views, protected cove, substantial dock, quality construction, recent improvements, extra parking, and short-term rental flexibility, this is more than a lake house—it is a place to gather, reconnect, celebrate, and experience Lake Keowee.
