The formal dining room is perfect for gatherings, while a main-floor office (or Zen Den) provides a quiet place to work or unwind. The primary suite includes custom-built closet cabinetry, a bright bathroom, and plantation-shuttered windows for privacy and style. Upstairs, you’ll find three additional bedrooms, two full baths, and an inviting media room with a custom-built bar—ideal for movie nights or game days.

The crawl space is encapsulated with a dehumidifier and humidity control system, and under-house French drains with a sump pump keep things dry and secure. Enjoy outdoor living at its best with a large covered deck, swing bed, wall-mounted TV, and a pergola-ready area—perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The 7-zone sprinkler system keeps the tall fescue lawn lush year-round, and the fenced backyard offers privacy and space for gatherings or play. A large laundry room with sink and built-ins adds convenience, while the oversized 2-car garage, utility room, walk-in storage, under-stairs closet, and walk-out attic provide plenty of storage. Every detail here blends comfort and craftsmanship: new windows, energy-efficient systems, and well-planned storage ensure this home is both functional and beautiful. Its location offers the peace of a quiet community while staying close to Greenville, Taylors, and Greer for shopping, dining, and commuting.
