A first time opportunity to see an Old World Mountain Lodge designed by Allen Brown. Perfectly sited in a comfortable notch on Whitewater Ridge with long mountain and lake vistas, this tastefully done home has all the conveniences with traditional features and sensitive touches. Vaulted ceilings with heavy antique timbers softened by cinnamon hued cypress horizontal plank paneling that produces a cool serene atmosphere during the day and a comfortable glow in the evening.

The perennial gardens are gorgeous!!! Off the kitchen is a screened porch with fireplace for that glass of wine after dinner or afternoon lounging in the hammock. Two additional decks provide stunning views of Lake Jocassee. The third deck with another charming fireplace is a favorite spot for family gatherings with a large spacious area for dining. The home has a wine cove for those special bottles. The two dining areas give you a choice for an intimate setting for two or one for a large family gathering. The home also provides a large great room with a large custom fireplace designed to heat the room or with a cooking grill which can be added for that tasty meal by the fire.


Off to one side is the library that provides that special spot to enjoy your favorite novel. The master suite has two bedrooms and two baths for that extra privacy. The master bath provides a large walk-in steam shower and a Jacuzzi tub overlooking Lake Jocassee for those leisure soaks and a second shower for convenience. The home has three spacious garages...The large double garage is home to the four wheel drive vehicle to provide for trips throughout the property on old logging trails. The third can be for that special car or if one likes to work with wood...a shop. The home is also equipped with a generator and Lutron lighting. The perennial planted yard welcomes those that enjoy Mother Nature. All throughout the year it provides a backdrop drop of color for the home. 

The home can be bought fully furnished with a lot of interesting unusual and unique antique pieces.
