But what truly sets this property apart is the outdoor setting! Imagine starting your mornings with coffee overlooking the peaceful pond or unwinding in the evening as the sun sets over the water. The expansive deck stretches along the side of the home, creating an incredible space for outdoor dining, entertaining, or simply enjoying the surrounding nature. More than 40 trees line one side of the property, adding to its charm and offering even greater privacy as they mature. Need additional space? The unfinished basement offers exciting possibilities for future customization, whether you envision a workshop, hobby area, additional storage, or a potential finished space, subject to the necessary approvals. This home also presents an attractive opportunity for investors! Currently operating as an Airbnb, the property has earned exclusively five-star guest reviews and has historically achieved approximately 80% weekend occupancy. Buyers interested in continuing short-term rental use should verify current regulations, performance, and any applicable requirements. And there's more than just beauty here. The home has undergone extensive improvements, including a roof replacement in 2020, new gutters in 2021, and updates to the plumbing, electrical, ductwork, and siding. The HVAC has been serviced, and the septic system was pumped in 2022. Important property tax information: Current property taxes may appear higher because the home is assessed at South Carolina's 6% non-primary residence rate. An eligible buyer purchasing the home as their primary residence may qualify for the lower 4% legal residence assessment ratio, potentially resulting in significantly lower annual property taxes. Buyers should verify eligibility and estimated taxes with the county assessor. Whether you're searching for a charming primary residence, a peaceful getaway, or an investment opportunity near Greenville, this place offers a rare combination of character, thoughtful improvements, and a setting that makes everyday living feel like an escape. Experience the views, privacy, and possibilities for yourself!

This End-Unit Townhome in Easley's Meece Community is barely a year old and already boasting more just a year later! Some homes feel like a compromise. This one does not.
