1 Lenore B Ln, Mountain Rest, SC 29664

Welcome to the beautiful Blue Ridge mountains of Oconee County, SC. This beautiful and very buildable 2.65-acre property in State Park Estates could be your new mountain retreat. The property is made up of two community lots (both have recent perc tests) on rolling hills and are partially grass, partially wooded with oaks, maples, poplar etc. The property has seasonal mountain views which could be enhanced with some tree management. A well and septic system (permits approved) will be required. Minimum house size is 1200 sq ft. The property is accessed through the community gate on the paved Lenore B Lane. The small (27 lots total, 8 homes, 2 under construction) peaceful gated community (with very reasonable deed restrictions) is at around 1900' elevation. The community offers a 2.5 acre community pond (with dock, beach area and boat ramp). Many of the property owners own multiple lots keeping development low. The community is surrounded by the Sumter national forest and the Oconee state park. With Oconee State Park adjoining the community to the South and the Sumter national forest (75,000+ acres) to the North not only are the mountains calling but so are the out-of-doors. There is direct access to all of the hiking trails starting from the state park (Foothills, Palmetto, Hidden Falls, Tamassee Knob, Station Falls, to name a few) as well as the lakes and beach at the park. Bird & wildlife watching, hiking, mountain biking, fishing, and hunting are right out your door. You'll feel as if you are hiding away in the quiet wilderness of mountains, yet you're less than 20 minutes from Walhalla and 25 minutes to the grocery store. Seneca and Clemson are only a short drive away with all the restaurants, shopping, medical facilities and anything else you are likely to need. If all that wilderness is not enough, Oconee county boasts many waterfalls, historical land marks, and three huge lakes, Jocassee, Keowee and Hartwell. There you will find boating, sailing, water sports, island beaches and many waterfalls coming right into the lakes. There are multiple boat ramps, lake side dinning locations, marinas and mountains surrounding the crystal-clear lakes. The State Park Estates community is well maintained by the small, friendly, volunteer HOA, and the property owners. The community has recently completed several maintenance projects. The community has scheduled contractors to clean and stain the dock and re-surface the pond road (which is gravel). Schedule your showing today and come experience it for yourself!
