About This Home

This COMPLETELY UPGRADED Lake Keowee overlooking cottage is one hundred percent Move-In-Ready and has FULL-TIME capacity! No updates are needed as this cottage is pristine and truly breathtaking! It has a tiled OWNERS' SHOWER and GLASS DOOR, a CUSTOM BUILT-IN PANTRY, NEW FLOORING, NEW LIGHTING, HIGH-END APPLIANCES, added square footage due to finished SUNROOM and much more! Ask agents for the list of upgrades. ASK ABOUT THE NEW BOATSLIPS! If you are looking for a low maintenance retreat and lake getaway OR a FULL-TIME capable lake cottage, with extra privacy, this is it! Your wait for the perfect lake home is over. Unit 82 has a beautiful water view that you must see in person. It has approximately 1,154 heated square feet. Its parking space is in the largest neighborhood parking lot that makes it easier for visitors and guests. This cottage is an absolute must see due to the details of its upgrades. You will be truly blown away by the quality. If you have pets or just prefer to have only one direct neighbor, you will love this cottage because it does have only woods to its left side. This gives you more privacy and your pets more space to play close by. This established community offers many amenities. They include a fabulous lakefront lodge and swimming pool, marina, beach, newly renovated fitness room, game room, walking trails and more. There is no HOA. Cottage owners own their cottages and lease the land. This is how Backwater Landing has the most luxurious while most affordable Lake Keowee living on the entire lake. There is a regime fee of $634 a month that includes landscaping maintenance, private gated community, gates up keeping, pool, clubhouse, walking trails, fitness center, lighting, land lease and more. Monthly fees vary based on services such as boat slip rental, storage unit usage, and whether the owner is a full-time or part-time resident. For a full fee breakdown and service list, please contact your real estate agent about the fees structure. This is a private gated community. The gate is monitored with no public access. Entry requires agent representation. No rentals allowed less than a 12-month term. A modified tax structure adds to the savings of this remarkable Lake Keowee cottage. Please ask agents about the land lease, boat slip rentals, and further details as the developer anticipates the thirty new boat slips (now onsite) to be rentable soon, once work is completed to prepare them for use. This cottage is on a single septic and the buyer could live there full-time. Schedule your private tour today!
