Who says you can't have it all? Not this homeowner. Sited just above a rushing waterfall with views of the pond below and the mountain in the distance, this beautiful, high-quality home has been impeccably maintained. Originally named "The Lake Osseroga Waterfall Cottage," this wonderful home, designed by Tim Greene & Travis Milletti, sits at the headwaters of the Cullasaja River that flows into Lake Ravenel. The price includes the adjacent lot for possible addition of a garage and/or guest house, or simply an assurance of future privacy. There are hardwood floors throughout and granite countertops in all bathrooms. The floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace is the focus of the great room, which also boasts a wood-beamed vaulted ceiling. There are a total of three stone fireplaces with gas logs; one fireplace is also wood-burning. An updated kitchen with Wolf/Sub Zero appliances and honey-honed granite countertops makes cooking a pleasure. Everyone will want to gather on the screened porch as the sounds of the waterfall soothe the senses and the fireplace warms your soul. There are two master suites; one is on the main floor with an upscale ensuite bathroom (currently used as a den). Another is on the lower level and has a private deck, office/sitting area, fireplace, "his and her" closets, and an upscale bath. On the upper floor, guests will enjoy their own privacy, as well as a bonus room that could be used as an artist studio, an office, or as a bunk room for kids! Some extras include an encapsulated crawlspace with a commercial grade dehumidifier; aluminum clad, thermal pane windows and doors for easy care; and low maintenance landscaping. The community boathouse provides a place for events, lake access, and canoe storage. Situated between Cullasaja and Wildcat Cliffs country clubs, Lake Osseroga is surrounded by natural beauty at a cool elevation of just more than 4,000 feet, and is the perfect place for golfers who treasure privacy.
