Description
Set amidst a serene and picturesque landscape, this remarkable 7.23-acre Greenville estate seamlessly blends historic charm with modern luxury. Spanning two separate parcels—one with the main residence on 5.09 acres and the other with a carriage house on 2.13 acres this property offers flexibility, privacy, and endless possibilities. Fully renovated in 2020, both residences capture breathtaking views from every window. Whether envisioned as multi-generational accommodations, a guest retreat, or a private sanctuary, this estate is designed to adapt to your lifestyle. The main residence features five bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths within a spacious, inviting layout. Step into the grand open foyer and choose your path—toward the expansive kitchen and family room, or into the mudroom and gathering area. The open-concept design of the kitchen and family room creates a natural space for entertaining, while a private den, movie room, or study offers quiet reprieve. Outside, the covered patio provides the perfect spot to relax with a glass of wine while enjoying the tranquil setting, where deer, foxes, and other wildlife make frequent appearances. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms, a hall bath, and a convenient second-floor laundry accompany the owner’s suite. This private retreat offers a spa-like bathroom, an expansive walk-in closet, and sunlit sleeping quarters framed by panoramic windows. An upper porch extends the living space outdoors with views across the property at the rear and a recently rebuilt private balcony at the front of the home offers a charming place to relax and enjoy nature. The third floor provides two additional bedrooms and a private bath, ideal for large families or hosting guests. Automotive enthusiasts will appreciate the abundance of garage space, including three detached single garages with two heated bays, a brand-new oversized 30' x 30' detached heated garage that houses 4 cars, and an additional work and storage area to accommodate hobbies or extra storage. A new driveway was completed in 2025. The charming carriage house, nestled on 2.13 acres, features three bedrooms and three full baths. A cozy family room with wood stove and a quaint kitchen add character, while beautiful hardwood floors lend timeless warmth. Completely renovated in 2022 with a new septic system and well, this home is move-in ready. A new driveway was added in 2025. Backing directly to Bidermann Golf Course, the carriage house offers sweeping views and a serene setting—an ideal retreat for guests, extended family, or potential rental income. This estate offers a unique combination of luxury, privacy, and versatility, making it truly one of a kind. The two separately deeded parcels include Parcel 07-013.00-004 (5.09 acres) and Parcel 07-013.00-003 (2.13 acres), which backs to Bidermann Golf Course.

The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
