More than 40 years ago, the original owners walked through the front door and knew they had found their mountain home. Musicians by heart, they found inspiration in the peaceful setting, the spacious deck, and what was then a sweeping view toward Lake Atagahi and Lake Toxaway Mountain. Four decades later, the home has been lovingly maintained and is ready for its next chapter. Situated on approximately 1.04 acres, this oversized homesite was created when the original owners purchased the adjoining lots on both sides of the home, providing additional privacy, a generous buffer from neighboring properties, and a setting that is larger than most homesites in Connestee Falls. Inside, the home is largely original and has been well cared for over the years. The vaulted living room with skylights creates an open feel, while large windows and sliding doors bring the outdoors in. The spacious rear deck is the true centerpiece of the home, equally suited for morning coffee, afternoon naps, or entertaining family and friends. The kitchen, bathrooms, finishes, and appliances remain original, providing an opportunity for the next owner to update at their own pace while enjoying a home with solid character and good bones. The main level features the primary suite with private bath, a second bedroom, guest bath, kitchen, living room, and the convenience of a main-level laundry. Downstairs provides additional finished flex space ideal for hobbies, guests, an office, or recreation. Located just minutes from the East Fork Gate, this home offers one of the more convenient locations within Connestee Falls, providing quick access in and out of the community while remaining close to many of its premier amenities. Connestee Falls is a gated mountain community encompassing nearly 3,900 acres with four mountain lakes, miles of hiking trails, championship golf, tennis, pickleball, bocce, a brand-new wellness center, clubhouse dining, swimming pool, and more than 60 resident clubs and activities. Nearby Lake Atagahi features a sandy beach, playground, fishing pier, pavilion, and launches for paddleboards, kayaks, and canoes. If you've been looking for a mountain home with privacy, location, character, and the opportunity to make it your own, this property deserves a look.
