About This Home

As of December 2025

Discover this exceptional two-bedroom, two-bathroom home offering one-level living with year-round breathtaking views of Lake Glenville and mountain ranges. The 1.84 acres was intentionally acquired to ensure tree clearing rights to preserve your amazing view for years to come. The thoughtfully designed split floor plan features a spacious primary suite with large bathroom and walk-in closet, complemented by fireplaces in both living rooms for cozy gatherings.
The property includes a full garage apartment providing excellent rental income potential, plus a two-car garage on the entry level and additional garage space below for storage and workshop needs. A private tennis court currently serves as raised garden space and chicken coop but could also be utilized for pickle ball courts or even a private playground area for young children. The terrace gardens showcase mature landscaping and a peaceful water feature.
The fenced backyard offers privacy, and ample parking accommodates multiple vehicles with additional space below for recreational vehicle or boat storage. A main-level workroom could easily convert to an additional bedroom. Located in an unrestricted neighborhood near Lake Glenville and Cashiers, this property combines mountain living with modern convenience and income-generating opportunities in one remarkable package.
