Beautiful Equestrian Estate w / Barn & Guest House
Anderson, Anderson County, South Carolina
This BEAUTIFUL Farm House is nestled on a cul-de-sac within a lake community full of executive- and craftsman-style lakes homes, this nearly 13-acre equestrian estate is surrounded by woods and wildlife. Enjoy peaceful tranquility and total privacy as you enjoy your morning coffee on the porch swing of the wrap-around porch overlooking your rolling pastures and visiting wildlife. This property is set up for horses, but currently houses a small flock of sheep, making it very versatile for horses, cattle, small ruminants, or llamas/alpacas. The owners added over 8 acres of fenced in pastures and paddocks, including two approx. 3-acre pastures and 2 smaller paddocks perfect for individual or paired turnout or quarantine lots. All pastures are visible from the home to keep a watchful eye on your livestock. There is also a dry lot paddock with a shed behind the barn, with run-in doors in the back of each of the three stalls within the barn. All fencing is 4-board wooden fencing with faceplates on each post with no tight corners or safety risks for your horses or livestock. There is also a 100’ x 200’ riding ring and a 60’ diameter round pen close to the barn, both of which are also fenced in 4-board wood. On the other side of the 48’x10’ center aisle (11’ tall height in aisle and stalls), you will find three 12’ x 12’ stalls with grilled sliding doors and stall partitions with 4’ hardwood walls for kick board safety. There is a 4th stall front and center partition in storage that could be added if desired. There is also a 12’ x 12’ concrete floored tack room with a half bath, washing machine, and tankless water heater as well as hot and cold water on both ends of the aisle for ultra convenience. The current owners have successfully boarded horses in the past yielding income potential. With extra tall windows and French doors throughout the entire home, the natural light is exquisite. The main house is over 3,050 square feet, with 10’ ceilings on the main floor, vaulted ceilings in the breakfast nook and main floor master bedroom, and a two-story ceiling in the open living room with a two-story stacked rock fireplace. The upstairs has 9’ ceilings, with the second and third carpeted bedrooms with walk-in closets that share a Jack and Jill marble-tiled bathroom with a jetted tub/shower combination, and a bonus loft space perfect for arts/crafts, an office, or hang out space. Downstairs you will find ceramic tile, marble tile and hardwood flooring in the main living spaces, with carpet in the bedrooms. From the back deck, enjoy access to the mudroom/laundry room that has a laundry sink, cabinetry, and large closet for extra storage. The kitchen has ample counter space, an island with gas-range and exhaust, and custom hickory cabinets. The spacious master bedroom includes an en suite bathroom and walk-in closet. The guest house w/a separate entrance above the barn is 1,000 sq. ft. of extra space with 2 bedrooms and a large bathroom w/double sink. The view from the guest house is gorgeous, as it looks out over the whole property from various rooms. With a large galley kitchen, a dining area and an open living room combination, it is fun to entertain here as well. The master bedroom has 9’ ceilings, a ceiling fan, and accommodates a king-sized bed. There is more than 300 sq ft of additional unfinished space at the top of the stairs before entering the guest house that could be finished to yield another bathroom and bedroom or recreation room. This guest house has so much potential including an in-law’s apartment or can generate income through AirBnB or as a lay-over facility (i.e. Bed and Bale) for equestrians traveling I-85. This property is flanked by woods on three sides with a creek running down to the lake that serves as the rear and side property lines. The circular driveway makes it easy to drive boats, campers and trailers in and out, and there is plenty of room to store all of your recreational toys.
