Lot 2 and 3 Johnson Dr Sunset, SC 29685

The Keowee Legacy Collection.
A Once-in-a-Lifetime Offering: 4 Acres, Approx. 725 Feet of Shoreline, Natural Beach, Private Cove, and Full Ownership Above 800'.

It is virtually unheard of to find two adjoining waterfront lots on Lake Keowee — totaling 4.39 acres with approx. 725 feet of shoreline — both offering full ownership above the 800' contour and free from all Duke Energy restrictions, HOA oversight, or membership obligations. Together, The Point at Keowee Vineyards and The Cove at Keowee Vineyards form a rare, generational opportunity to create a private compound, luxury retreat, or legacy estate with unmatched flexibility and freedom. Eligible for 2 separate docks, one on each parcel.

The combined properties offer a diverse and dynamic landscape. The Point features a 1.23-acre peninsula with approx. 325 feet of shoreline and a natural beach, fully above the 800', allowing for private use without setbacks, permitting, or intrusion. The Cove encompasses 3.16 acres with approx. 400 feet of shoreline, wrapping around a peaceful private cove and featuring a natural waterfall that flows gently into the lake. Architectural plans have been prepared for both sites and may convey with the property, offering a valuable head start toward building. The acreage offers space for multiple structures — a main home, guest cottages, garages, and more — all without design restrictions or architectural review.

Both properties are located within the gates of The Cliffs at Keowee Vineyards, enjoying some of the benefits of a luxury community without being subject to its POA, ARB, or mandatory club membership, BUT MEMBERSHIP OPTION IS AVAILABLE FOR SEPARATE PURCHASE. The setting is a haven for wildlife, including regular bald eagle sightings, adding another layer of natural wonder to this pristine retreat. Across the water, a nearby marina provides convenient access to fuel and a boat ramp, ensuring seamless access to open water while preserving total privacy at home.

Beyond the shoreline, the lifestyle continues. The property sits within walking distance of the Jim Timmerman Natural Resources Area at Jocassee Gorges — named one of National Geographic’s “50 of the World’s Last Great Places.” This extraordinary wilderness area offers thousands of acres of public land for hiking, hunting, trout fishing, and wildlife viewing. Just minutes away, the Horse Pasture Road shortcut leads to the top of the Lake Jocassee rock wall, a dramatic and secluded overlook with one of the most breathtaking views in the region. And with Lake Jocassee itself recently named USA Today’s Best Swimming Lake in the country, this location offers proximity to one of the most celebrated aquatic destinations in the Southeast.

Whether you’re envisioning a sprawling family estate, a private retreat, or an exclusive vacation rental portfolio, The Keowee Legacy Collection offers a level of ownership, access, and design freedom that simply doesn’t exist anywhere else on the lake.
