About This Home

As of June 2022

If you’ve been looking for an oasis by the lake, this is it. This is a rare find – a super cute two-bedroom, 2-bath cottage with loft in a gated community less than an hour from Greenville, SC, between Atlanta and Charlotte, close to Clemson University. Cottage 76 is literally 50 feet from the waters edge, providing completely unobstructed 180-degree lake views of the emerald green waters of Lake Keowee.

Located in the Backwater Landing, a maintenance free community of lakefront cottages where homeowners can escape and relax. The community boasts a scenic waterfront walking trail, an amazing lodge-style clubhouse with living and dining areas, a library, children’s playroom, billiards, exercise area and an outdoor lakeside pool. Boat slip rentals are available.

Beyond the views and amenities, Unit 76 offers just the right luxury upgrades for lake living. The enclosed porch is perched above the lake with stunning water views. Inside the open living area, imagine yourself sitting near the new custom stone, gas fireplace sipping your favorite drink, enjoying the hard-wired sound system and panoramic views of the Lake through the floor to ceiling windows. To accommodate guests, the owners added a spacious loft with easy access via a custom ladder, currently set up to sleep 4.

The kitchen and both bathrooms have granite countertops. The vaulted ceiling is accented with wood beams and custom blinds adorn the transom window. The warm wood tones, upgrades and care add to this a one-of-a-kind waterfront experience.

Enjoy a golf cart friendly community for easy transit back and forth to boat slips and community amenities.
