147 Steeple Chase Rd offers a rare chance to own lakefront property with multiple exit strategies. This 3BR/2BA home features ~1,800+ sq ft and is fully livable but dated—ideal for immediate use as a rental, second home, or to update over time. Situated on approximately 0.65 acres (buyer to verify), the property includes deep water access, a private dock, and boat lift (both in need of TLC), with no HOA restrictions. The lot provides strong long-term upside and is well-suited for a future custom lakefront build. Located just minutes from Lexington in a high-demand area of Lake Murray, this property is perfect for investors, second-home buyers, or anyone looking to secure lakefront value with flexibility to renovate, rent, or rebuild.

Lake Murray, located between Chapin and Irmo, is a lakeside and recreational Chapin neighborhood with broad coves and boat-dotted horizons. The shoreline reads as a mix of classic lake cottages and newer, low-slung homes with wide porches and screened rooms angled toward the water. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Lake Murray Dam area near the Lake Murray Public Park, where ramps, picnic lawns, and steady marina traffic set an outdoors-forward tempo. Community pillars include Liberty Tap Room & Grill, The Rusty Anchor, and the Lake Murray Symphony Orchestra’s lakeside performances. Days track the water—paddleboards at sunrise, fishing lines at dusk, and long drives along SC-6 for views between pines and docks.
