The owners of this "Rustic Elegance" custom home totally fell in love with this Waterside Crossing homesite in 2005 & then designed & built their Lake Keowee dream home! The gently sloped lot has a natural sand beach & mountain view with deep water at their hip & a half covered dock. A waterfall feature, meandering from the deck & terrace level patios to the shoreline, enhances the tranquil setting. This home captures the creativity of a well-designed interior, gently melding with the exquisite outdoor spaces. Living at this lake allows you to embrace outdoor living!
