111 Northshores Drive, Seneca, SC 29672 MLS #1537502

This impressive 2-year old, owner-built custom home was meticulously designed with great attention to important details that make it special and living in it enjoyable. Located in the area’s most desirable Lake Keowee neighborhood, Waterside Crossing, it is nestled on its 2.5 acre lot, surrounded by tasteful, low-maintenance, professional landscaping, backing up to its own private woods. The design style of this home is best described as rustic elegance. You see this from the entrance of the travertine-floored front porch, framed by 10’x10’ solid timber posts with Tennessee field stone bases. The double mahogany doors are surrounded by floor to ceiling natural stone on the exterior, as are the façades of the two front elevation’s A’s. The interior of this home is as light and airy as the exterior is warm. Beautiful, wide plank, white oak flooring run throughout the home except in the bathrooms and laundry room where you will find porcelain tile. The foyer is welcoming with its white shiplap below and nautical blue walls above, which are also found in the dining room that opens from the foyer. A huge custom window allows lots of light in the dining room, which is connected by a short hall directly into the kitchen. The kitchen features extensive solid oak, soft gray custom cabinets and beautiful white quartz counter tops that are veined in a dark blue. The island that seats four is nautical blue, as is the range hood. This is a kitchen that invites those who enjoy cooking together with its massive counter space and two sinks, each with disposals. A walk-in pantry adds to this kitchen’s thoughtful storage space. The great room/kitchen’s 16’ cathedral ceilings add that rustic element with its wood beams and three hammered copper ceiling fans. The floor to ceiling natural travertine fireplace surround is framed by custom hand-crafted bookcases. The sunroom opens from the great room, flooding both areas with light and fresh air from its floor to ceiling custom windows that easily roll out. The French door opens to the grilling patio and to the 16x20 gazebo featuring a Tennessee field stone fireplace flanked by stone benches. The bronze 4’ fence is another great detail that anchors the patio area. Down the hall from the kitchen is the master bedroom, powder room and laundry room. The master bedroom has a tray ceiling and a triple window that floods the room with light and provides an amazing view of the woods. The master bath includes a long quartz counter top featuring a vanity area and lots of drawers and cabinets, a linen closet and a huge shower with two shower heads and a wide bench, all surrounded with beautiful gray porcelain tile. The master closet opens from the bath and allows plenty of room for dressing. The laundry room includes solid white quartz counters, white cabinets and a deep stainless sink, all surrounded by imported gray and white designed porcelain tile walls. The laundry room opens into the single car garage, allowing for this area to serve as a great mudroom space as well. The two and a half car garage opens around the corner from the kitchen, making it convenient to unload groceries. To the left of the foyer, beyond the great room, are two bedrooms, one designed to be used as a study or bedroom. Both of these rooms have large walk-in closets. The guest bath is on this hall as well. It features a tub/shower combination with a porcelain tile surround and a large pewter gray oak vanity with a quartz counter. The transom window brings in natural light. From the front door to the back door, this is truly an amazing home in an amazing, friendly lake neighborhood that features over two miles of paved walking trails through the woods, lighted sidewalks and a wonderful clubhouse where Friday night socials make it easy for all to feel at home. And this home includes a deeded boat slip on Lake Keowee at a gated boat dock in the neighborhood. Really, what else could you want? It's a must see!
