Set on a private point along the shores of Lake Hartwell, this exceptional waterfront property combines year-round deep water, expansive lake views, and nearly 4,000 square feet of climate-controlled space between the home, finished basement, and bonus room above the detached garage.
The Cape Cod-style residence offers approximately 3,150 square feet with three bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths. The primary suite, kitchen, family room, and laundry are conveniently located on the main level, with the lake serving as the backdrop throughout much of the home. An expansive rear deck provides approximately 700 square feet of outdoor living space overlooking the water and is positioned to take advantage of beautiful morning views across the lake.
The 0.59-acre lot features a gentle approach to the shoreline and more than 500 feet of waterfront. Its point setting provides broad, approximately 270-degree views while neighboring homes are positioned toward the water, creating an unusually private backyard and outdoor living area. Adjoining U.S. Army Corps of Engineers property adds approximately 0.84 acres of additional open space between the homesite and shoreline, giving the property a much larger and more secluded feel.
A standout feature is the impressive custom dock designed to maximize time on the water. It includes three covered slips with powered lifts capable of accommodating two boats and two jet skis, along with a 12' x 16' swim platform, 12' x 12' elevated sundeck, 60-foot arched gangway, and low-maintenance decking. Deep water provides dependable lake access throughout the year.
Vehicle access extends across the property toward the shoreline, offering added convenience for maintaining the waterfront and enjoying smaller watercraft. A detached three-car garage provides excellent storage and is complemented by an approximately 600-square-foot climate-controlled bonus room above.
Despite its peaceful waterfront setting, the property is conveniently located approximately five minutes from I-85. The neighborhood has a single entrance and exit and is governed by a property owners association.
With extensive shoreline, year-round deep water, a substantial dock, generous indoor and outdoor living spaces, and a remarkably private setting, this Lake Hartwell property is equally suited for a primary residence, family lake house, or weekend retreat.
