Lake Keowee living at its absolute finest. This New Construction masterpiece offers 6 bedrooms, 6.5 baths, and over 5,600 finished square feet, designed the way lake homes are meant to live—wide open, light-filled, and built for a crowd.

From the moment you step through the front door, the lake steals the show. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame big water views, and folding glass doors on both levels erase the line between indoors and out. The flat lot leads to a sandy beach—rare, usable, and perfect for long summer days.

The main level is an entertainer’s playground. A soaring great room with vaulted ceilings flows into an expansive dining area and a chef’s kitchen that doesn’t mess around—two oversized islands (one for prep, one for seating), a 6-burner ZLINE gas range with griddle and duel oven, over sized sink with two facets, two dishwashers, two refrigerators, custom cabinetry, and a full butler’s pantry. This kitchen was built for holidays, ballgames, and every lake weekend in between.

The primary suite is a true retreat with stunning lake views and a spa-style wet room featuring a soaking tub and walk-in shower with dual shower heads. The suite flows into a generous walk-in closet and directly into one of two conveniently located laundry rooms—because smart design matters. Also on the main level: an additional bedroom suite with a beautiful tile walk-in shower, a private office/library, and a unique lake view room tucked behind the garage, complete with a Murphy bed and loft area—ideal for overflow guests or teens claiming their own hideaway.

Downstairs continues the party with a second great room, kitchen area, media/play room, and a bunk room that sleeps twelve (yes, twelve). There’s also a Jack-and-Jill bedroom setup, abundant storage, and a separate-entry lake room perfect for guests coming straight off the water. Don’t miss the outdoor shower tucked behind the breezeway.

Outside, an outdoor lakeside gas fire pit, privacy fencing, turf grass, a putting green, a circular drive, and a lower-level lakeside drive for easy access. The covered dock includes a lift and power, ready for long days on the water. Whether you’re hosting large family gatherings or exploring short-term rental potential, this home was built to handle it—beautifully and effortlessly.

This isn’t just a lake house. It’s the kind of place memories are made in bulk.
