About This Home

As of March 2020

Brimming with every-day-is-a-vacation amenities, 219 Serenity Bay Drive offers elevated Lake Keowee views, easy water access, and maintenance-free living.

Aptly named “The Tree House” by the current owners, the home is in the captivating Serenity Bay community of lakeside log cottages. Bordered on one side by undeveloped woods, it sits just far enough from the shoreline to impede watercraft noise, yet its dedicated deep-water boat slip is seconds away. Lovely vistas both inside and out extend across a wide lake channel.

The home opens to a great room with stone fireplace. Extra-wide glass doors bring the outdoors in, while a two-story plank ceiling and accent walls lend the perfect rustic vibe. The roomy kitchen incorporates an eat-in bar that adjoins a separate dining area. The main-level master suite includes a generous bedroom and spacious en suite with double sinks, soaking tub, and shower.

Upstairs, a loft—large enough for a study or sitting area—takes in airy lake views. A comfortable bedroom suite is on the upper level. The lower level provides ample guest accommodations with a family room, two bedrooms (one with outside access), and full bath. Storage abounds with two unfinished areas, the larger of which is heated/cooled, making it ideal for converting to a home theater or exercise studio.

Outdoor spaces are plentiful: a main-level screened porch and adjoining rear deck, and broad covered deck on the lower level.

Furnishings negotiable, 219 Serenity Bay is ready for immediate occupancy as a full-time residence or as a short- or long-term rental. The modest POA includes maintenance of outdoor areas, as well as the boat slip. Serenity Bay is close to shopping and healthcare in Seneca, less than 30 minutes from national champion Clemson University, and a short drive from the vibrant city of Greenville.
