Widely regarded as one of the most beautiful properties in Aiken, New Era Farm is offered for the first time. Set across 42.83± private acres, this exceptional equestrian holding features a custom-designed 3,200 sq ft. home, one of the largest covered riding arenas in Aiken County, a fully furnished income apartment, and infrastructure most buyers spend years and hundreds of thousands of dollars trying to replicate - with no HOA.
The 90′ × 160′ covered arena, built in 2018, was engineered from the ground up with 50″ conical footers, portal-frame construction, computerized 5-zone irrigation, a $15,000 overhead fan, LED daylight lighting, and high-speed fiber internet beamed directly to the arena - making it suitable for any discipline, around the clock, year-round. The arena suffered zero damage during Hurricane Helene.
Built in 2020 and designed for a relaxed circular flow, the main residence is exceptionally light-filled with pastoral views from every window. The home features 10-foot ceilings (16-foot cathedral in the living room), Karndean luxury flooring throughout, a stunning kitchen with Titanium Black Granite island and Quartz countertops, and a corner office with a set of fully restored 8-foot Art Deco stained glass doors with provenance to the Peabody Hotel in Memphis. The primary suite's Italian-tiled bath includes dual sinks, a walk-in shower with custom Italian brass drain, and a built-in tiled bench. A Generac 22KW whole-house generator, Rinnai tankless hot water, and a whole-house surge protector round out the systems - and the average combined utility bill for the entire property runs approximately $285/month.
The walk-out garden level includes a high-style 950 sq ft. one-bedroom apartment with private entrance, which was recently occupied by a long-term tenant at $2,100/month - a meaningful income offset with a successful Airbnb history as well. Quiet Rock sheetrock between levels ensures complete acoustic separation, making the spaces virtually sound-proof. An adjoining 650 sq ft. unfinished storage area maintains a steady 58° year-round.
Equestrian infrastructure includes a 220′ × 110′ fenced outdoor ring, jump field, multiple fenced pastures with water to each (irrigation-capable), new run-in sheds (2024), and perimeter fencing across 42.83 acres of high ground - no mud, superior drainage, and exceptional airflow. Three wells (including a 5 HP arena well), three electric transformers, and all-buried utilities represent a level of infrastructure rarely found in the market. The property is within Aiken County's equestrian protection zone, approximately 10 miles from Downtown Aiken and 5 minutes from the I-20 Wire Road Exit. No HOA means no restrictions on boarding, events, clinics, Airbnb, or any other commercial use.
