3 French Country Pl, Greenville, SC 29609

The street name where this home is located was recently changed and because it's a new address GPS sometimes does not recognize it. The old address was 3 Lindasue Lane. You may need to use this address for navigation until all systems sync. Spacious custom-built home with numerous living spaces (over 5000 square feet). Centrally located at the base of Paris Mountain in a small, gated community, this lovely home is located on a cul-de-sac for a private, park like setting AND is only minutes away from award winning Downtown Greenville, Furman University, Travelers Rest, the popular Swamp Rabbit Trail and the Blue Ridge Mountains. This ideal home features a spectacular open floor plan with tons of natural light, 10' ceilings, hardwood floors on the main floor and is loaded with quality features. As you enter the home the large open two-story foyer with onyx floors and custom designed oak stairway with wrought iron balusters sets the tone for the home's luxurious appointments. The dining room is located on the way to the huge great room and kitchen making this area the true hearth of the home and is also an ideal area for entertaining and hosting family gatherings. The great room features a gas fireplace flanked by built-ins and the lovely gourmet kitchen features stainless steel appliances, gorgeous granite countertops, designer tile backsplash and a huge 9' center island with seating for four. The breakfast area is steps away and leads out to the large private deck to enjoy the outdoors and look out onto the large, private backyard with mature landscaping and a perimeter of Cedar trees. Also steps away from the kitchen is the mud room with pantry cabinets and the large laundry room and garage access. The main level master suite is large and tucked away for optimal privacy. The master bath is elegantly appointed with a quartz topped vanity, dual undermounted sinks, soaking tub, tiled shower and two separate large closets with custom built in shelving. Also located on the main floor is the home office or second bedroom on the main floor which has access to a full bathroom. The second-floor features two large bedrooms with spacious walk-in closets and a full bath with granite countertops and dual vanity sinks. The terrace level is wonderful for entertaining and has so much flexible space. The recreation room is comfortable and cozy despite its impressive size. There is also a den/family room, billiards/game area, exercise room, home office area, another full bath and a huge storage room, making this level a favorite spot for family and friends to relax with walkout access to an expansive covered Italian designed patio with arched columns and the beautiful backyard. It would be easy to make one of these areas more bedrooms, depending on the new owner's needs. This home offers a hard-to-find extra feature of a large unfinished area with outside access via a single garage door and a pedestrian door. This area is ideal for a third garage bay for a car or boat, a workshop, artist studio, gardeners' room or for lawn equipment storage. The current owner stores his work equipment and trailer in this area and has even ensured easy access down the side yard by embedding rocks in the lawn so as not to damage the landscaping. Another HUGE appeal of the home is the apartment over the garage. This space will appeal to buyers of all generations and offers optimal flexibility. There is one bedroom, a full bath, kitchenette, dining area and a living area. Perfect for an in-law suite, live-in help quarters, a teenage hangout, a private home office area... the possibilities are endless! Mountain Edge is a small private gated community close to everything Greenville has to offer yet secluded and peaceful to enjoy nature and a serene way of life. If square footage is important to buyer, buyer must verify.
