Property Description
This is a Fannie Mae Home Path Property. Located on approximately 10 acres, mostly in it's natural wooded state except around the "castle" as we are fondly calling it, this home have over 4500 square feet heated on 3 levels. Built as best we can determine around 2005, this property is unique and unlike anything you may have seen. Designed to resemble a European Castle, it has many interesting custom features. The home is laid out with the master on the main floor as well as having a unique library with stain glass windows. Custom woodwork, red oak cabinets and stain glass windows give the library a mysterious air. The master has a his and her side, with 11 foot ceilings, joined by a central walk in ceramic tile shower with dual shower heads. There is a large walk in closet with built in cabinetry. The great or central room has high coffered ceilings and an oversized masonry "gothic"fireplace. It is truly oversized. There are also a power room, study and 2 main floor rooms which could be used as bedrooms. A study (or guest bedroom)with coffered 19 foot ceiling is also on this level. The next level is the dining, kitchen level. There is a full bath on this level. This bath features a claw foot tub and a pedestal sink and built- in custom cabinets. A Byzantine area overlooks the great room and has dining both casual and formal. The kitchen features customized cabinets, with a pewter glazed finish and European hinges and knobs, undermount lighting, custom "crank style" windows, a mix of counter tops, and a walk in pantry. This level has direct access to the oversized massive rear entry garage and there are two laundry sinks and the main laundry room on this level. The mechanical room with it's central vac system is located on this level as well. The kitchen has a separate wet bar with it's own glass faced cabinets and there is also a "student" desk in the kitchen. The 3rd level features two more bedrooms joined by a jack and jill bath. Second steps go to a "panic room" and also a rear door which leads to the "tower" outside or back into the Great Room below. The upper rooms have carpet and the main floors are a mix of laminate and hardwoods. Custom wood work and trim are plentiful. The property has a locked gate at the road, and you approach your "castle" through natural woodland habitat on a serpentine drive. The drive splits to go to the rear entry garage and the main approach leads to a circular drive at the front of the castle. This is a very unique property. It is silent. The wind crosses the ridge and all you can hear is it's whisper and that of the birds. With the leaves bare as they are now you can see the striking silhouette of their limbs against the blue South Carolina sky, reminding us of why we want this kind of silence in our lives. If this property has caught your attention you don't want to miss this opportunity. We have a septic system, and there is public water. There is a security alarm in the house which can be activated, as well as 3 heating units which keep the well insulated home warm. Let your imagination run wild here. Traveler's Rest is a very special place. Make it yours. Not everyone can say they live in a castle!.
