Offering nearly 6,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, approximately 130 feet of deep-water shoreline, and the highly desirable convenience of two primary suites on the main level, this exceptional custom estate combines modern luxury, superior craftsmanship, and breathtaking lake views in one remarkable property. Ideally situated just minutes from shopping, dining, and medical facilities, and approximately 20 minutes from Clemson University, this extraordinary home offers the perfect balance of luxury lake living and everyday convenience. Showcasing timeless Craftsman architecture accented by natural stone, metal roof details, exposed beams, and a grand covered entry with custom iron double doors, this stunning residence makes an unforgettable first impression. Inside, soaring 20+ foot ceilings, dramatic walls of glass, and a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace frame panoramic lake views while filling the home with natural light.

The main level offers two luxurious primary suites, providing a rare combination of comfort and flexibility. The owner's retreat is a true sanctuary, complete with a private fireplace, oversized walk-in closet, spa-inspired bath with dual vanities, illuminated makeup station, leathered granite countertops, and an expansive walk-in tile shower featuring triple shower heads. Step directly onto the screened lakeside porch and enjoy peaceful mornings overlooking the water. The second primary suite offers its own private bath, walk-in shower, and direct access to an open lakeside deck with spectacular views. Near the front entrance, a charming library provides the perfect retreat for reading or working from home, featuring bookcases with a rolling ladder, workspace, and an electric fireplace.
