luxury house with reception room for sale Pickens, United States

Within the gates of Old Edwards Reserve at Lake Keowee, this extraordinary estate is a masterful expression of timeless architecture, exceptional craftsmanship, and effortless lakefront living. Privately nestled on 2.29 acres, created by combining two homesites into one remarkable estate parcel with a single POA assessment, the property is surrounded by mature hardwoods, dramatic granite outcroppings, and thoughtfully designed landscaping that creates an exceptional sense of arrival. Native Maggie Valley stone, handcrafted cathedral-style mahogany doors, authentic plaster walls, soaring timber ceilings, and carefully selected finishes of mesquite, hickory, antique barn wood, and poplar bark establish a residence that feels both refined and inviting. Every detail reflects an unwavering commitment to quality and enduring design. Designed for both intimate gatherings and large-scale entertaining, the chef’s kitchen serves as the heart of the home. A striking solid mesquite island anchors the space, complemented by premium appliances including a full-size refrigerator and freezer, Viking cooking suite, induction cooktop, warming drawer, wine cooler, and generous prep and serving spaces. The kitchen flows effortlessly into the keeping room, dining room, and dramatic great room, where a soaring vaulted ceiling, magnificent two-story stone fireplace, and expansive windows frame the surrounding natural beauty. Outdoor living is equally captivating. The screened porch, finished with flagstone flooring, barnwood ceilings, skylights, and nearly invisible screening, offers a peaceful setting for morning coffee or evening gatherings. Beyond, the expansive Ipe deck overlooks the private covered dock, also constructed with Ipe decking and finished with a cedar shake roof, inviting days spent boating, swimming, and enjoying the crystal-clear waters of Lake Keowee. Four spacious bedroom suites provide luxurious accommodations for family and guests, including a serene main-level owner’s suite, two private upper-level suites, and an additional guest retreat on the lower level. An exceptional offering for automotive enthusiasts, the home features five enclosed garage bays with generous space for vehicles, watercraft, and recreational equipment. The three-car main garage was designed with ceiling height capable of accommodating three vehicle lifts, offering the potential for an impressive eight-car garage while preserving valuable workspace and storage. Ownership within Old Edwards Reserve offers access to an extraordinary lifestyle, including championship golf, a private marina, lakeside dining, wellness amenities, walking trails, and a vibrant club community surrounded by the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. This is more than a lakefront home. It is a private estate where exceptional design, natural beauty, and one of the Southeast’s most coveted lake lifestyles come together in a setting that is both timeless and unforgettable. A premier membership is required at closing.
