Your Lake Hartwell getaway starts here, featuring a private two-story dock tucked into a quiet cove and a home ready to enjoy from day one. Inside, the home opens to a bright and spacious living area with vaulted ceilings and large windows that bring the lake views front and center. The kitchen offers plenty of room to cook, gather, and unwind after a day on the water. Designed with flexibility in mind, the layout includes two bedrooms and a full bath on the main level, an upper loft with its own bath for additional living or sleeping space, and a finished lower level featuring a second living area, bedroom, and full bath-ideal for hosting guests or creating separate guest quarters. Outdoor spaces are just as inviting, with a wraparound deck stretching across three sides of the home and a concrete path leading directly to the dock for easy lake access. Please note that the current lake water level is lower than normal and is expected to rise with seasonal conditions. Being sold fully furnished (with only a few personal exclusions), this property is ready to enjoy from day one-whether as a weekend retreat, full-time residence, or potential short-term rental opportunity. Seller is offering $5,000 in seller concessions with an acceptable offer.
