About This Home

As of September 2025

A lakeside cottage that feels as good as it looks! 131 Briar Court is the perfect fusion of charming design, smart updates, and effortless function. No detail was overlooked in this completely revitalized home. Step inside to a warm welcome by vaulted ceilings accented with pine beams, and a resurfaced fireplace that anchors the open-concept main living space. Adjacent, the chef’s kitchen is a true standout—enjoy an Italian French-door range with vent hood and an Italian grill fridge, as well as custom cabinetry paneling throughout. A built-in dining nook gives you the feeling of a restaurant at home, with additional storage space found beneath the bench. The covered porch spans the entire main level, where you can sip coffee or evening cocktails while soaking in the sparkling water view. Two bedrooms and a renovated bath are located on the main level. One bedroom’s closet has been thoughtfully converted into a laundry station with countertop and cabinetry—though stacking the units would easily restore full clothing storage if desired. Upstairs, the primary suite enjoys the airy feel of a loft. The full bath comes equipped with built-in shelving and features a sliding barn door. Cleverly designed closets line the bedroom walls, offering ample space for clothes, shoes, and accessories. Continuing downstairs, the terrace level offers an ideal setting for hosting guests and relaxing alike. A spacious den with fireplace, and an upgraded kitchenette for preparation of favorite snacks and drinks. Additionally, find a full bath with modern finishes, and a utility/storage room. From here, step outside to enjoy an additional covered outdoor living space. The garage has been fully insulated, drywalled, painted, and transformed into a functional office and workshop space. Just outside between the garage and home, enjoy a beautifully landscaped private courtyard with firepit seating. A great alternative when looking for a more intimate breath of fresh air. Exterior lighting and tree removal on the neighboring community lot created extra space—perfect for pets or guests to spread out and run around. This property also includes a dock slip lease for one slip of a double covered dock, just a short golf cart ride away on the neighboring street trail. Short term rentals are allowed, making this a flexible investment or a dreamy personal getaway! This property has undergone a full facelift from top to bottom. It’s unique, polished, and simply fabulous. Simply bring your personal belongings and experience a Lake Keowee lakeside getaway unlike anything else available. Seneca restaurants and shopping merely 5 miles away and Clemson Football weekends- only 14.2 miles from Death Valley.
