Lake Jocassee is often referred to as “the Lake Tahoe of the East”, and 401 Eagle Nest Crt, on southern Lake Jocassee, exemplifies the magnificent and exclusive beauty found on this very special lake. Simply one of the finest lake front settings in the south east. Enjoy the most beautiful views of the southeastern slope of the Appalachian Mountains and one of the widest sections of the Lake Jocassee from your deck or double decker dock with sunbathing porch. Bordering state park and at the end of a cul-de-sac with only a few part time neighbors, and part of a very special enclave, this oversized (.77 ac) home site’s location is private and utterly enchanting, yet only 11 minutes from scenic Highway 11’s market, restaurant and wine/liquor store. Watch eagles, ospreys and other water fowl frolic in the unspoiled mountain backdrop lake beauty. Work remotely from this location due to its high speed Verizon wireless service and future Starlink ultra high speed satellite internet. The residence, with its never-to-be-duplicated old growth heart pine floors and cabinetry, and solid stone floor to ceiling fireplace, has an open main floor plan, from the kitchen to dining to great room, and exudes a warmth and casualness in keeping with its surroundings. With its main floor master plus guest bedroom, two upstairs bedrooms and two lower level bunk rooms, this 6 bedroom, 6-1/2 bath, 5,400 sq ft lake home accommodates large family gatherings with plenty of room for guests. The lower level is well equipped for recreation, with a newly upgraded championship billiard table, separate games area, wet bar/refreshment center, two bedrooms, and comfortable tv/lounging area, all conveniently located to the walk out terrace area.

Impeccably maintained by its full time owner and ready to be enjoyed immediately, this lovingly cared for lake home is in turn-key condition with all updates and maintenance routinely performed. The access is gated with 11 properties as part of this exclusive and private enclave. The exterior grounds are well maintained yet natural, with a gold fish pond and waterfall strategically located to take advantage of the site’s topography, while channeling water from heavy downpours into the pond. There is 157 ft of pristine, crystal clear Lake Jocassee shoreline, with natural bedrock and the elusive Oconee Bell growing wild under the canopy on the property.

For the family or couple(s) seeking privacy, natural splendor, convenience, security, easy lake access, lake life, mountain glory, and much, much more, 401 Eagle Nest Crt, Salem, located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, is just the right tonic.
