The Cove at Keowee Vineyards. A Secluded 3.16-Acre Estate Lot with Private Cove, Approx.

400 Feet of Shoreline, and Full Ownership Above 800'. It is exceptionally rare to find a Lake Keowee property of this size with full ownership to the 800' contour free from Duke Energy shoreline restrictions and community oversight. Spanning approximately 3 acres with approximately 400 feet of shoreline, The Cove at Keowee Vineyards offers complete privacy, expansive building potential, and tranquil water access in a quiet, protected setting.

Located within the gates of The Cliffs at Keowee Vineyards, this property benefits from the beauty and security of a gated environment, yet it is not subject to the POA, HOA, ARB, or any club membership requirements. With three full acres to work with, the lot offers ample space for a custom estate home, guest cottages, gardens, and outdoor living areas all without design restrictions or architectural review. Architectural plans for a luxury home have already been prepared and may convey with the property, offering a head start on creating your legacy retreat.

The lot grants access to its own quiet cove, creating a peaceful natural harbor ideal for swimming, kayaking, and fishing. A natural waterfall flows into the cove, adding movement, sound, and a sense of serenity that enhances the land s connection to nature. The area also enjoys regular bald eagle sightings, further highlighting the pristine and protected ecosystem that surrounds the property.

In addition to its private lake access, the property offers direct access to the Jim Timmerman Natural Resources Area at Jocassee Gorges named one of National Geographic s 50 of the World s Last Great Places. Within walking distance, you ll find thousands of acres of protected public land for hiking, trout fishing, hunting, and exploring, with native wildlife including black bear, wild turkey, and brook trout. Just minutes from the homesite, the Horse Pasture Road shortcut leads to the top of the Lake Jocassee rock wall, offering one of the most spectacular panoramic views in the region.

And nearby, Lake Jocassee recently named the Best Swimming Lake in the Country by USA Today adds another level of outdoor enjoyment right in your backyard. Across the cove, a nearby marina provides access to fuel and a boat ramp, blending the ease of boating with the beauty of a secluded setting. Whether you're building a luxury retreat, an income-producing rental, or a multi-generational estate, The Cove at Keowee Vineyards is a rare opportunity to own expansive, waterfront land with minimal restrictions in one of the lake s most peaceful and protected coves.
