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. A driveway easement provides access to the rear property.
