The Upstate of South Carolina has a lot of amazing and beautiful real estate, but this one is special. Approximately 8.5 fully fenced acres of picturesque pastureland, sturdy old oaks, and mountain views surround this well maintained and well-loved nearly 4,000sqft home. This horse farm property is a rural oasis, BUT one of the things that makes it a “1 of 1” opportunity is the fact that it’s literally a short bike ride or 3 minute drive to ALL of downtown Travelers Rest’s cafés, coffee shops, yoga studios, retail establishments, businesses, and of course the vaunted Swamp Rabbit Trail. Unheard of location for a property of this nature! The barn, meticulously constructed by Mennonites, has 3 stalls (room for 7), a tack room, and water and electricity. There’s a sense of tranquility in every angle of the property; 3 porches to relax on and absorb the views. The front porch offers views of Paris Mountain, as does the spacious and relaxing front screened porch. Off the back den is a terrific screened porch with vaulted ceilings overlooking the whole rear spread; the neat garden near the shed and barn, the beautiful pastures and fencing, the horses, and the children or grandchildren having the times of their lives. Pop outside of the screened porch and grill on the uncovered deck. The house itself is pristine! Pride of ownership and workmanship are visible throughout. It’s larger than it looks, with a nice intuitive layout featuring 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms on the main level and comfortable living spaces. Many stainless appliances are newer, a Jotul woodburning stove, Pella windows and doors…the attention to detail and upkeep is evident. The lower level is full of fun and functionality. Pool table, ping-pong, craft room, gobs of storage and thoughtful organization is already in place. A full bathroom and bedroom are on this level as well. Don’t miss the attached 2 car garage with it’s great workbench with Craftsman tool cabinet and built-in shelving. This one is special!
