Great room with soaring ceiling and full-height stone fireplace, opening onto a deck looking out over park-like backyard with path down to Lake Hartwell, form the heart of this 3 bedroom/2.5 bath/plus loft room, furnished country residence for 12 month rental. Nestled on the shores of Lake Hartwell ( perimeter about 960 miles) with water views, this charming home stands as a testament to the architectural trends of its era. Built in 1972, it proudly retains its original design and character, offering a glimpse into the style and craftsmanship of the time. As you step through the front door, you re greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere, with sun-drenched spaces and nostalgic touches throughout. The heart of the home is its cozy living area, complete with exposed wooden beams overhead and a stone fireplace serves as the focal point, inviting gatherings on chilly evenings. Ascending a spiral staircase, you ll find yourself in a unique loft space, perfect for a home office, creative studio, a cool hangout for pre- teens and teenagers ( with two day beds, one of which is a trundle) or simply a quiet retreat to unwind with a book. The loft overlooks the main living area, offering a sense of openness and connectivity to the home. Venturing further, you ll discover three bedrooms,( one of which is presently used as an office/den) each boasting original fixtures and ample natural light. The primary bedroom is a sanctuary unto itself, featuring an en-suite bathroom and a delightful surprise-Doors leading out to a screened-in porch - with special screening designed to keep your pets in and other critters out. This tranquil outdoor space is ideal for savoring morning coffee or enjoying the gentle breeze on lazy afternoons. The kitchen, modest in size but with good counter space, exudes vintage charm with its retro appliances. A dining area adjacent to the kitchen provides the perfect setting for intimate meals and lively conversations. Outside, the expansive backyard ( for which the landlord provides the mowing) is surrounded by lush greenery and mature trees, offering privacy and serenity in a park like setting. It offers ample space for outdoor activities. Whether it s hosting a barbecue with friends ( multiple patios ) , tending to a vegetable garden, or simply lounging in the shade of a tree with a good book, there s no shortage of opportunities to connect with nature and create lasting memories. This home is offered furnished and is perfect for those who want to escape to the lake to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. There is access to fiber optic cable so working from home is a breeze. The home has access to the water ( but no dock) so perfect for kayaking or swimming. The Powderbag Access ramp , with an Army Corps of Engineers courtesy dock, is a 1 min drive which makes boating easy. The Ingles grocery store with its in-store Starbucks counter is a 6 minute drive, and the shops, restaurants, community theater, High Cotton Music Hall, and botanical garden of Hartwell are less than 10 minutes away. GSP airport , and the museums, sports arenas, and performance areas of Greenville SC, are about a 75 minute drive. While some may see this home as a blast from the past, others will appreciate its timeless appeal and the opportunity to live in and preserve a piece of history. LAWN MAINTENCE INCLUDED.
