About This Home

As of May 2025

Craftsman-style Cothran Home in The Retreat—a highly sought-after community—where over 2,400 sq. ft. of thoughtfully designed space awaits. This meticulously maintained three-bedroom, three-bath home has it all: charm, functionality, and modern luxury, with owner upgrades surpassing the appeal of new construction. Outdoors, you’ll find a private backyard oasis with professional landscaping, baby palm trees, vibrant flowers, and strategically planted greenery for year-round beauty and privacy. The composite deck is perfect for relaxing or entertaining, featuring a brand-new 2023 Catalina Kennedy 3-person hot tub with superior jets, a solid hard cover, and professional wiring for hassle-free maintenance (can be included). The privacy fence ensures this fantastic space is all your own. We believe this is one of Cothran’s best floor plans, offering bright and inviting space for everyday living or hosting guests. Two bedrooms and two full baths are on the main level of this home, one being the primary suite, complete with a spa-like soaking tub, a separate shower, and a walk-in closet complete with a custom closet system. A secondary bedroom with its own private bath and beautifully upgraded tile shower. The kitchen’s large subway tile backsplash and island lighting give the home that show-stopper look upon entrance, and the open floor plan allows for those in the kitchen to overlook the oversized, vented gas fireplace for added warmth and style. Upstairs, you’ll discover a massive loft perfect for a home office, workout space, media room, or more, plus a third bedroom with its own bath. There is so much functional storage, with both utility and heated/cooled areas for all your needs. Shaw Apex Slate 5” hardwood floors elevate the main living areas, while The Retreat community is low-maintenance living with full yard irrigation and HOA-provided landscaping services. Enjoy leisurely strolls on the community’s walking trail or explore the nearby conveniences, including dining, shopping, and easy access to I-385. Even better, this home is just minutes away from Bridgeway Station, a hub of dining, entertainment, and lifestyle amenities, including the 10,000-seat soccer stadium that will host concerts, festivals, and other entertainment activities and be home to the Greenville Triumph Soccer Team.
