1057 Country Club Road, Pickens, SC 29671 MLS #1535183

Why 1057 Country Club Dr? let me tell you why. INTEREST RATES ARE DROPPING NOW IS THE TIME TO ACT. This charming house was built in 1958 when Dwight D Eisenhower was President and "Volare" by Dean Martin topped the music charts. (Dean Martin - Volare - Lyrics). In other words, it was built in a day and age when quality and craftsmanship came before speed and profit. One builder and one small crew cut and measured every board, and every nail was hammered in one at a time. In the day and age that it was built, neighbors stopped to talk, children played in a large front yard (or fenced backyard) and family communication took place on the shaded back porch... before text messages or the internet speed. Yes, 1958 might have been a slightly different time, but this home in Pickens County still offers that small-town pace of life without compromising modern convenience. The house itself has a beautiful layout. Double front doors will welcome you into a large foyer and living room with a bay window and fireplace. In fact, both the formal dining room and the sunroom have fireplaces, and the two rooms adjoin each other to encourage relaxing after meals. The bright open kitchen has quartz countertops and a cozy breakfast area. The laundry room is right off the kitchen. Leading down the hallway to the 3 large bedrooms and 2 tile baths is amazing storage space in addition to the large bedroom closets. There's no carpet in the house - only hardwood floors, tile, and Pergo laminate flooring in the basement. You won't need to worry about hiring carpet cleaners before you move in! In the basement, you'll find a large cozy den with a wood-burning Buck Stove and a huge rec room including a full bath, storage area, and counter cabinet with a small sink and refrigerator - French doors lead to the outside. A new roof, circular drive, large deck, 2 car garage, and private 1-acre lot Since 1958 the house has had several renovations to visually modernize the space while maintaining the character of the original build. These renovations have included: A total renovation of main floor bathrooms with custom tile work, new fixtures, and vanities including a 4’x8’ walk-in shower - $45,000 New triple pane casement windows sunroom- $11,000 New electric meter service, 200-amp electrical panel, LED overhead can light in every room, new electric outlets in garage and basement- $20,000 New high seer HVAC 5-ton AC unit w/ digital thermostat and whole house HEPA filter, new furnace pan and condensation pump- $8,000 New custom garage door and belt drive opener- $5,000 New leaf guard gutters - $7,000 New black chain link fence for fenced backyard- $7,000 Custom concrete patio and 22’x20’ parking pad - $7,000 Swept all chimney flues and added chimney caps - $1,500 Hazard tree removal- $2,000 In short, this house is a special place in the modern world.
