Seneca Home Trends
Seneca is nestled along the sound end of Lake Keowee in the Upstate region of South Carolina. Just eight miles west of Clemson and part of Oconee County, Seneca exudes a charming, small-town feel while its rural surroundings add to the overall peace and quiet of the area. Seneca has an endearing town center. Secluded suburbs with contemporary homes and long-standing houses provide something to suit every resident’s taste. Seneca is growing consistently, with more developments being added to the surrounding suburbs and rural areas around the city. A median home sale price of around $270,000 has remained consistent since 2020, and the real estate market is a little less competitive than Anderson or Easley, two neighboring cities.
Seneca Attractions
Most of Seneca’s allure lies in its proximity to the pristine Lake Keowee and the natural outdoor destinations of the Upstate. All year-round, you can find locals boating and fishing on the lake, and during the warmer months it’s a hot spot for swimming, tubing, water skiing, and more. This part of the state enjoys a slightly lower average temperature in the summer than the 'famously hot' capital city of Columbia. Still, locals love to beat the heat on the water. There are even a few waterfront restaurants just north of the city that provide amazing views of the lake. Seneca’s downtown area, centered on Main Street and North Street, features local breweries, old school drive-ins, and plenty of eateries. Head to the Seneca Historic District to see incredible homes like the George Warren Gignilliat House, built in 1898.
Seneca Schools
Oconee School District One oversees the 19 schools in Seneca. Families love Seneca Middle School and Northside Elementary School, two particular standouts in the district. There’s also a number of schools that show pride for nearby Clemson University and elect to use the tiger as their mascot – or tiger cubs in the case of some elementary schools. Clemson University is just a 15-minute drive away, and the university is a large employer of Seneca residents.
Commuting in Seneca
Commuting around the city of Seneca is relatively straightforward. Highway 123 forms the main thoroughfare connecting the city to Clemson and the Georgia border to the west. Seneca is a car-dependent city, but thankfully two bus lines run from the city to Clemson, making it a convenient option for students, faculty, or anyone looking to head to the neighboring community for work or leisure.
