549 Riding Ridge Ct, Aiken, SC 29801

Custom-built in 2022, this 4,000-square-foot home sits on 5.15 private acres inside the gated community of Goodsprings Plantation in Aiken's sought-after equestrian corridor. A long private driveway leads through the surrounding woods to the home, giving it a secluded, tucked-away feel rarely found this close to town. The acreage offers privacy, space, a peaceful wooded backdrop, and room to add a barn or additional outbuilding if desired. Residents also enjoy access to the neighborhood's riding trails. The main level offers 10-foot ceilings, white oak hardwood and tile flooring, a dedicated office, and a walk-in pantry off the kitchen. The living room features a wood-burning fireplace, creating a warm focal point for the main living area. Upstairs, 9-foot ceilings continue through a loft, bonus/theater room, and second-floor laundry room, adding useful flex space beyond the main living areas. In total, the home offers 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, plus a 3/4 bath in the garage -- a practical touch for anyone coming in from outdoor work or time on the property. A large back porch overlooks the wooded lot, with ample room to add a pool. The walk-in-height crawl space beneath the home offers an unusually large amount of additional storage. The 3-car garage stands out with 12-foot ceilings, 14 feet in the third bay, and an EV charger already installed; the car lift does not convey. Outside, brick and Hardie siding with cedar porch posts give the home a finished, durable exterior. New irrigation and sod were recently completed. The property runs on well and septic, with natural gas service in use for heating and appliances, and Carolina Connect fiber internet already in place. Private, wooded, and inside a well-maintained gated community -- a rare combination of seclusion, newer construction, acreage, and convenience in Aiken.
