Remarks: BACK ON THE MARKET at no fault of seller! Requested repairs are being completed by LICENSED & insured contractor. Now better than before! You've found it! Welcome to 202 Cove Creek Road in the lovely town of Pickens, South Carolina. A peaceful creek-front living on one full acre. If you've been searching for that sweet spot between country living & town convenience, this property deserves your attention. Sitting on a full acre of cleared, usable land just outside Pickens, this brick ranch offers something increasingly rare: genuine elbow room without the long commute. The location tells much of this story. You're rural enough to enjoy mature shade trees, seasonal blooms, & the gentle sound of Cove Creek running along your back property line—188 feet of creek frontage, to be exact. Yet downtown Pickens is less than 10 minutes away, putting schools, shopping & amenities within easy reach. It's the kind of balance that's hard to find. Inside the home - This three-bedroom, two-bath ranch keeps things straightforward & functional. The kitchen centers around sealed concrete countertops that add character & durability—a nice departure from standard options. All appliances stay with the home. You'll find a mix of original hardwood floors & life proof LVP throughout, along with smooth ceilings & upgraded vinyl windows that help with energy efficiency. The primary suite includes a private bathroom with a walk-in shower & here's where the layout gets clever: the laundry room connects directly to this bathroom. It's an unexpected convenience that eliminates hauling baskets through the house. Come fall in love with the outdoor spaces that inspire a true lifestyle! The covered side porch might become your favorite room. It's generous enough for a full seating area—picture your morning coffee or evening read with a view of the property. Screen it in if you prefer, or leave it open to catch the breeze. The real draw, though, is the land itself. The property allows small farm animals, so if you've been wanting chickens, goats, or similar, you're in business. There's a covered storage area near the creek that can be left open or be enclosed for a barn area. The two-story outbuilding has serious potential (storage, workshop, or even a future secondary dwelling unit with the right upgrades), & a detached carport for covered parking. This property works well for buyers seeking space to breathe, room for hobbies or animals & a connection to the outdoors—all without sacrificing access to town. Whether you're downsizing from something larger but not from land, looking for your first home with acreage, or simply wanting a peaceful setting that still keeps you connected, this one checks those boxes. The creek, the mature trees, the farm pasture views beyond the property line—they create a sense of permanence and calm that's worth experiencing in person. Come take a look, you won't want to leave!
Back on the market related to buyer financing. Quiet country living only minutes from the mountains and downtown Pickens. Cozy 3 bedroom 2 bathroom home situated on a beautiful acre with a creek that borders the property. Enjoy the peaceful scenes of nature while relaxing on your large covered back porch. Home also has a huge 2 story detached storage building that can be used for multiple possibilities.
