Waterford Farms Homes for Sale

Waterford Farms sits apart from most Lake Keowee communities because it pairs deeded boat-slip access with true estate-scale land. Instead of compact waterfront lots, the neighborhood is defined by gated parcels that usually run from about 10 to 26.5 acres, giving it a more private, country-estate feel along the Rochester Highway corridor.

Community Highlights

Lake access is the community's clearest through line. Boat slips appear throughout the neighborhood's listings, with slips near the Lighthouse area on Lake Keowee and, in one case, two deep-water slips tied to a single tract. That setup lets owners keep acreage, creek frontage, hardwood stands, and long driveways without giving up regular access to the lake. Privacy is the other constant theme. Remarks repeatedly describe wooded build sites, cul-de-sac positioning, and enough separation between homesites to support guest houses, barns, and other secondary structures allowed by the covenants.

The land itself adds variety rather than reading as a single flat pasture development. Listings mention mature hardwoods, flowing creeks, open pasture sections, long-range vistas, and seasonal mountain views. Several tracts are described as subdividable under the recorded restrictions, and more than half of the community's closed sales clustered on Waterford Farms Lane, the address line tied to the highest pricing inside the neighborhood. The community's top recorded sale, a 16-plus-acre custom residence that closed at $1.625 million in September 2024, showed what the upper end looks like here: a main house with 10-foot ceilings and hardwood floors, a guest cottage, a pool, and a three-car garage, all paired with a deeded slip.
