Property Description

Welcome to “The House on the Hill,” a custom-built home where thoughtful design, quality craftsmanship and decades of wonderful memories come together. Built with love by its original owners, attention was paid not only to what you can see, but also to the important systems behind the walls and throughout the grounds. The owners went above and beyond county requirements during construction and have thoughtfully maintained and improved the property over the years. Set well back from the road, and minutes from Clemson University, the home offers privacy and quiet. An impressive 4-inch-thick asphalt circular driveway provides an inviting approach, with additional parking conveniently located near the oversized two-car garage. The grounds were designed with function and beauty in mind. Extensive drainage includes 4-inch drain piping throughout the property, French drains near the koi ponds and a drainage system designed to make pond cleaning easier. The ponds have been cleaned and are ready to enjoy, with a newer pump installed. An irrigation system helps maintain the landscaping, and the dog house is wired for electricity! Inside, the home offers generous living and entertaining spaces with numerous improvements. Plumbing has been updated with PEX, and the 55-gallon water heater was replaced approximately three years ago and includes an expansion tank. The dryer is vented beneath the garage to the exterior. The HVAC systems have received significant attention, including Trane units with transferable warranties, newer heat pumps, ductwork, line sets and drains, along with climate control to help manage humidity. The roof is only a few years old. The kitchen features classic oak cabinetry along with a new stove and microwave, while the refrigerator is approximately four years old. Hardwood flooring brings warmth throughout much of the living space. Downstairs is made for entertaining, featuring a Jacuzzi shower, pool table area and entertainment room with projector and screen, wired for surround sound. Following a previous plumbing break, affected piping was replaced with PEX, new ceilings and sheetrock were installed, and the basement was professionally restored after moisture removal was completed. Additional improvements include new lighting and switches in the primary and secondary bedrooms, new garage door seals and numerous carefully completed updates throughout the home. Every door hinge has even been replaced—another example of the attention this home has received. Outside, enjoy the deck and gazebo, recently treated with Behr Woodland Red stain with a 10-year warranty, landscaped grounds and peaceful koi ponds. A buried natural gas tank allows convenient professional filling, and termite protection has been maintained on a long-term treatment program. A prepared pad on the southwest side of the property offers potential for a future detached garage, workshop, boat/toy storage or possibly an additional dwelling such as an in-law suite, subject to applicable zoning, permitting and approvals. For decades, this home has been affectionately known as “The House on the Hill.” It was the place for prom parties, homecoming celebrations and gatherings—the invitation everyone hoped to receive. For buyers seeking additional privacy, the lot directly behind the home may also be available for separate purchase, offering the possibility of an even greater buffer. Availability and terms to be independently verified. From its substantial driveway and extensive drainage to its updated mechanicals, entertainment spaces, beautiful grounds and oversized garage, this is not a cookie-cutter home. It was thoughtfully planned, carefully built and lovingly maintained. The House on the Hill has spent decades being the place everyone wanted an invitation to. Now it's ready for its next owner to call it home.
